And to bandy about the term “genocide” is both ignorant and, in this context, deeply dismissive of the state of Israel and its right to exist. So here we are.
He seems to have become one of the main characters of twitter. He's doubling down and blocking anyone who disagrees with him.

Honestly it makes me even more uncomfortable thinking about the direction they took with the Gorn in Strange New Worlds.

At least Tawny Newsome hasn't let me down. =/

Okay before we write Anson off two things to consider. 1. Is this his official account and not someone else using the same name that has happened on Twitter before? and 2. Was the account hacked?

A third seems low. "Palestine and Palestinians have a right to exist" and "mass murder of civilians is bad even when we or our allies do it" are both fringe positions IRL.
