NGL having a hard time telling the different flavors of tankies apart.
I thought the db0 guys were ok, but they deny genocide A and what about Genocide B.
Then I thought the folks against db0 were ok, but turns out they approve of genocide A and deny genocide B.
Idk who needs to hear this but oppressing other people is bad regardless of who you are.
Where does db0 deny and aprove of genocide?
Correct.
Don't worry, just like the admins leaving up Holodomor denial, I'm sure that you think it's not a 'real' genocide.
In the thread mentioned db0 folks deny the Uyghur genocide
aka denying one while espousing how bad another is.
Destroying a people through violence: genocide
Destroying a people through cultural erasure and sterilizations and birth rates: genocide
No they don't. They say bad things are happening but it doesn't meet the definition of genocide, which the United Nations and Amnesty International agree with.
So is the UN and AI now denying genocide?
The UN also says what’s happening in Gaza isn’t a genocide. Sooooooo.
This is exactly why people look down their nose at all of yall
And yes, I ask in that thread and have the parroted “THE UN AND AI AND OTHER NGOS DONT CALL IT ONE” then get lambasted for it because I’m not talking about Gaza as if I’m incapable of caring about two things at once.
Yeah they look down at us, and not PJ and Goat being totally weird about the instance they can't bend to their will.
Yes … because of the genocide denial and militant arguments against anyone who can care about more than just the one thing yall are arguing about.
The other thing is just internet drama.
I hope that helps explain why.
I'm ardently against the Palestinian genocide, despite the attempts of certain users to assert otherwise.
Meanwhileongrad doesn't approve of any genocide, neither do I.
just don't kill people, it's pretty easy
what if the people i want to kill are doing a genocide?
That's one of the biggest problems, isn't it? Gandhi said the Jews during the Holocaust should mass suicide to send a message to the world, as if the world cared about the holocaust at that stage. And also that's kind of stupid...
The allies showed mercy to the Nazis and then skip ahead and now you have nazis in the US government heiling hitler on the world stage.
Really, I don't know. I suppose like all things it depends on context? im just a goat, i don't like violence
