        I mean, to tankies, if you call or even just used to call your country communist, socialist, or a people’s republic, you can commit all the genocide you like even if you are white.

    the brain gymnastics of tankies defending people’s actions as long as it “proves” their point is really impressive sometimes.

    example: i got called a nazi for simply using twitter once

    and also because i said we shouldn’t neccesarily censor everything on social media that doesn’t align with their views.

    Curious how it is mostly the global north asserting a genocide in China, yet leaders and diplomats from the Arab League and other predominantly Muslim countries vehemently deny a genocide visit after visit.

    https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202301/1283507.shtml

    The sheer difference in the quality and quantity of evidence between accused genocides in Palestine and Xinjiang is monumental, and anyone should be able to identify that. Where on one hand you have torrents of images, videos, and eyewitness accounts from people of all nationalities confirming genocide in Palestine, you don’t see much other than the lip service of one Christian nationalist named Adrian Zenz behind every hit piece on Xinjiang.

    Your post really weird me out. Why are you reducing a genocide in Palestine into a dub against the scary tankies, who are some of the most militantly anti-zionist folks you will find? Some weird ass modern take on double genocide theory.

      Yeah, if globaltimes.cn says so. Managed by the CCPs renmin ribao, and the CCP obviously famous for both respecting human rights and being absolutely trustworthy when it comes to how great China is. But wait, there’s more, “Islamic figures” from UAE, Saudi Arabia and Egypt also claim so, also highly famous for their respect for human rights, and they’re Muslims too, so they must be right, since every Muslim is the same, and they all love and respect each other, never have there been any conflicts between specific Muslim groups. Right?

      What a fucking unhinged paragraph calling someone out when you’re taking a fucking CCP propaganda page as your source, of all things.

      Maybe reason for the lack of coverage is that China is a totalitarian state where conducting critical journalism gets you, believe it not, jail time?

      Domestic genocide is usually not intervened for/on and economic ties cause the struggle of another people to be bearable.
