When your immediate circle is in constant panic about a terrible inhumane, immoral enemy that is, reportedly, destroying them and their way of life, I invite you to stand up and say "can't we just get along with them?"
This is a cultural, emotional, informational bubble, and when you're inside it there's only one correct way to act, and that is to virtue signal that you hate the other bubble.
People will never learn to get along, if they refuse to listen to each other.
