Why do you assume that pro-Palestinian people = pro-Hamas? How many dead Israeli people is enough to justify genocide? Nobody is saying that Hamas are the good guys, but they do often say they understand the material realities that created them (Israeli state actions). Everyone I know that is saying don't commit genocide also say it is not OK for Hamas to kill civilians, often in the same breath.
Edit: Some data for context

Because they don't complain when Hamas kills people. Simple.
But they do? Both the people you are responding to in this thread literally said it is not OK for Hamas to kill civilians. You also didn't answer the second part:
How many dead Israeli people is enough to justify genocide?
