"If you’re not with us, you’re against us"
- Zionists and Russians.
You sure you want to take that stance? You sure you want to see everyone who does not agree with you as the supporter of evil? Sounds like oppressionism to me.

No such thing, you’re just taking the oppressor’s side.

“If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor.” — Desmond Tutu
It’s not about whether people agree with me or not, it’s about what is actually happening in the world. Notice how Desmond Tutu didn’t say “you have to agree with me,” he said if you see injustice, you should support justice. He’s encouraging people to think for themselves, to analyze situations for themselves.
Except we aren’t talking about them. We’re talking about a genocide. People on the side of the genocide are deffo supporters of evil. Now go oppression yourself somewhere else.

I’d really like to find more media convincing people of the fallacy of neutrality. The closest I can think is a line in Hitman World of Assassination.
