Explicitly posting on this (lemmy.ml based) community… tl;dr: title (which is from a couple years ago)

Just wanted to check what’s the community’s stand on this, and hopefully see if the devs came around to “fixing” the issue.

Just wanted to post this for more completion https://lemmy.world/post/1236428

      “the UN not recognizing it” and “it not being true” are entirely different things.

      Even the article you linked makes it clear that at least some of the votes were from countries trying to tiptoe around the issue to avoid pissing off China.

        to be honest, I was in a hurry when I wrote that comment, but now I am not.

        I linked reuters because it was the first thing that popped out of the search engine that says that countries did vote and the outcome of that vote but we both know that “avoiding pissing off China” is Reuters’ opinion.

        this is a map that shows the voters. the green countries are what gets referred to as the world in western media that is not a coincidence because you’ll find the same pattern throughout a lot of UN votes.

        all of the Muslim countries agree that it is not a genocide. To make it more clearer I live in one of those countries and the majority here are Muslims and it is not a genocide. before this vote, my government sent out people to examine Xinjang and they concluded that it is not a genocide oh and I happened to trust my people more than the …

        Western media offends us by saying that we are “avoiding pissing off China” Heck saying that +30 countries are “avoiding pissing off China” is totally absurd.

        You’ll have to excuse my grammatical errors because english isn’t even my second language.
