I mean sure I would be if there was an actual genocide taking place but there isn’t.

You cool with Hamas governing Palestinians even in peace with Israel? You cool with that? And if so why?
If Israel doesn't bother the Palestinians and can live peacefully with them, then frankly it's none of my business who they elect. Do I care who governs Austria or Cambodia? Not really.

In the same way, if hamas isn't launching rockets at Israel, why does it matter to you who is running the show there? There are more repressive regimes in the region and around the world than Hamas that don't seem to bother anyone.

Edit: to answer your question. No, I don't like Hamas. I'm not ok with them running Gaza. But I also don't live there and I recognize that I shouldn't have a say in Palestinian politics.

Give them a better alternative and they'll more likely than not, chose that reality.
