I'm sure that we don't need a debate to agree that genocide is something that's not acceptable. Do you disagree?

Denying a genocide happened, however repugnant it may be, is not the same thing as genocide. Pretending it is in order to borrow the weight of genocide is a common tactic used to try to silence arguments without addressing them.
