I mean, China has committed an ACTUAL genocide.
- elzbardico 1y agoThis is neocon propaganda that only simpletons believe.
- soiltype 1y agoAnd yet, the arguments against the narrative of Uighur genocide seem to exclusively be childish insults. Seriously, I see comments just like this all the time when someone mentions Uighur genocide, of which there is some evidence, and never an actual refutation. Are simpletons those who believe evidence might indicate truth, or those who let themselves be browbeaten by tribalism into believing otherwise? I wouldn't even ask if I thought you were just a CCP bot but your post history suggests you're not.
- t-3 1y agoIf the Chinese are committing genocide against the Uighurs, the US is also committing genocide against its black population, which it imprisons and kills at much higher rates. I'm willing to accept that both are committing active genocide but few China-haters seem to be.
- immibis 1y agoYes, it is.
- elzbardico 1y agoNo, the burden of proof is on the proponents of this.
- Rover222 1y agosame thing for a "genocide" in Palestine
- queenkjuul 1y agoGood thing we have plenty
- soiltype 11mo agoThat's a lazy and irrelevant response because, as I actually said, evidence has been provided. If it's bad evidence, say that, instead of making a new claim that someone else is an idiot, for which the burden of proof is on you. Further, these comments tend to come with the claim that the whole thing is a CIA/FBI hoax. Guess who bears the burden of proof for that? (Don't bother guessing. It's the person making the claim.)
- shagmin 1y agoJust curious, why should I believe this is merely neocon propaganda? I've read tidbits about this off & on over the years and it doesn't seem that straight forward, even if calling it genocide is on the hyperbolic side.
- hunterpayne 1y agoTechnically its just ethnic cleaning because its trying to destroy their local culture. But somehow I bet you don't want to base your argument on this technicality.

- elzbardico 1y agoWell man. We know the general size of the area, we know for a fact, that Israel has dropped explosive ordinance on this area that is a multiple of the explosive power of the atomic detonations in hiroshima. We've all seen the videos of endless blocks reduced to rubble. You may not want to call it genocide, but a whole fucking truckload of people has been obliterated by explosive power, are you telling me that Hamas was that big? I wouldn't be surprised if we found out that Israel killed more people in Gaza in two years than the US killed in Afghanistan over two decades.
- Rover222 1y agoYou probably also say the Wuhan lab virus theory is "racist"
- 8note 1y agothe US has as well, as part of its founding. the natives didnt just disappear. Hitler took inspiration from the US on the topic
- Rover222 1y agoyes... not sure what your point is though in the context of this conversation.
