Thanks for pointing out the tensions that existed in Rwanda that led up to it. I was particularly analogizing on the point just before the genocide, where the faction in power were unpersoning and calling for violence against their later victims.

In the end the analogy is flawed either way you spin it. Democrat and Republican voters are not ethnic/cultural groups in a country recently ravaged by colonialism.

But again, I am noting that someone is complaining about increasing oppression against their minority group, and you are lamenting about them playing into party politics.

Human rights are more important than the issue of having a healthy political culture. I thought it was inappropriate and out of touch to focus on the latter in this context.
