Everyone here has already stated the US has already and continues to commit genocide, which is true, but I’d like to point out that it is happening more explicitly to the majority of people than it has before.
We all know that the right has been urging for the purging of minorities for a very long time, but most people didn’t know that. Nowadays, with people like Matt Walsh becoming more well known has started to make the unnoticeable spark of alt-right extremism grow into a forest fire. And because that spark went unnoticed for so long and kept growing and growing without a glance, people have become used to the inferno around them. Like the frog and boiling water analogy.
I mentioned Matt Walsh specifically because he was the one neo-Nazi that explicitly stated the Club Q shooting was justified. Other conservative commentators, even the ones who work with him like Ben Shapiro, didn’t out right state the shooting was good in their views, but did toe the line of saying right wing think tanks were not at fault for any hate crimes someone in their audience commits. But we know that isn’t true as they have stoked the flames of violence for decades; calling queer people groomers, pedophiles, and mentally ill; claiming non-white immigrants are rapists and drug-dealers.
We even have Kanye palling around with actual white supremacist Nick Fuentes, making him a lot more visible to the average person as before he was essentially blacklisted from most social media. When Ye and Fuentes were on Info Wars and Tim Pool’s podcast, whenever either host gave the slightest pushback to the antisemitic remarks made by either Ye or Fuentes, their audiences came out in swaths completely mask off against any support for Jewish people.
We saw the rise of the alt-right as far back as Gamergate and anti-SJW atheist YouTube, and it never actually ended. The difference between then and now is that these people remained almost permanently online, never really reaching the masses at large. But because they’ve been at it for so long and essentially ruined a portion of the young population (millennials and GenZ) these ideas have been able to spread outside YouTube comments, Reddit, and 4Chan. These ideas have not been thoroughly and well combated so they were able to reach beyond the barrier unscathed. Sure, there were leftist on YouTube making counter videos and such, but considering the algorithm favours right wing content, no 3 hour video essay that took four months to make on a ten minute Ben Shapiro video would ever stop people from falling into the pipeline.
Fox News and the like were always very very bad, but they’ve clearly gotten worse and worse as the years go on. I mean, look at the actual politicians currently sitting and/or running for office; so many campaign commercials of politicians holding guns alongside the idea of groomers in schools and the sanctity of girls sports. Canada has the same problems, we literally have a premier who is an actual Q-anoner.
In conclusion, while the genocide has been going on for a long time, it’s become a lot more noticeable and palatable for those that never gave it a second glance.
They’re using girl’s sports as a way to attack trans kids. Proposing genital inspections and such to effectively erase trans kids from ever existing. They have also been pushing the grooming narrative to imply trans adults and drag-queens are a danger and must be combated. It’s that messaging that stokes violence.

In what sense?
Rightoids think transfems are ruining women’s sports
