Comment on Jobless, isolated, fed misogynistic porn… where is the love for Britain’s lost boys?

I don’t think the Israelites are sitting in heaven after several thousand years upset over the few extra weeks they spent in captivity. That’s besides the point, Pharaoh’s heart was hardened by God removing the Holy Spirit, which is needed for repentance. It’s still Pharaoh’s free will, after he ignored spiritual conviction

So there’s a certain amount of spiritual conviction god could give genociders to convince them to stop while it still being considered free will but refuses?

We’re the one that refuses it. Pharaoh was clearly refusing it, and blasphemed the Holy Spirit

The refusing in the statement I made is being done by god, not us. I’m asking if god refuses to do the opposite of what he did to Pharaoh to end modern day genocides since you believe it wasn’t robbing Pharaoh of his free will and you believe that free will is necessary for repentance.
