@NikosMohammadi @SohrabAhmari @unherd Only an epistemically sealed order could lament genocide as an outcome while admiring the political realpolitik that justified, fueled, and delivered it as generative and emulatable. The separation is itself obscene: means, ends, and analysis belong to a seamless moral obscenity.
