This is sad, not maddening. I don’t know what to say if we cannot cleanly talk about genocide—that’s what it is by any definition—in a country where you may well have spent the rest of your life in jail for writing this about that country’s government. That’s not excusing the US.

Also correction: in Germany, which you praise, and where I have family (as many Turks do!), I know people who faced citizenship denial because their very very German spouse could not prove German BLOOD from before world war ONE, where many children born there have no citizenship.

So people literally had to prove, with no gaps in paperwork, that their German spouse was blood German (yes, what it sounds like, blood, as in German blood) from before 1914 before being allowed to apply to confer citizenship to their legal spouse with whom they had children.
