It’s because Goat and PugJesus are continually talking out of their arses about our instance, and completely misrepresenting or just straight up lying about what we say. PugJesus even somehow managed to arrive at the conclusion I am a “genocide denier” after I posted the comment below and banned my account from all his communities. He’s been malding for weeks over his 1 week temp ban on db0. He’ll never be over it, apparently. And despite us peacably coexisting with him for years, suddenly we’re all “tankies” just because we called out his toxic bullying towards one of our users. Those two have been flaming all over lemmy about our instance for weeks now. PugJesus even set up not one, but two, personal grudge communities to whine about being moderated, in addition to dozens and dozens of invective-filled bad-faith posts. It’s funny how none of them had a problem with dbzer0 until PJ had a meltdown, right?

To be clear, if I haven’t been already, I 100% condemn China’s actions towards the Uyghurs. Is it technically a genocide? Depends what definition you’re working with, but to my mind it meets the definition.

Apparently the above statement wasn’t clear enough, so I’ll reiterate. Yes, China imo has been committing a cultural/religious genocide against the Uyghur’s, as they have done with Tibet and will likely do to Taiwan at some point. That sucks. And yes, all genocide is bad. But as the libs love to say when they are talking about the Republicans, you gotta consider which is the worse partygenocide and where to focus your efforts.

The Chinese aren’t dropping grenades from drones onto groups of innocent Uyghur civilians, shooting teenage boys in their genitals, or bombing their hospitals. It’s more like an authoritarian version of cultural assimilation. And no PugJesus, that doesn’t mean I’m denying or even minimizing what’s happening there. But to say the nature of the two genocides is the same just because they share the same label is a brain-dead take. It’s like saying the Falklands War was the same as WWII. I mean, in one sense that’s true, because they were both wars, but in a very obvious sense the scale and level of harm was much higher in one compared to the other.

That’s the point I was making about Gaza. Yet repeatedly, whenever the Democratic party’s material support for the genocide in Gaza is brought up, all the turbolibs can say is “what about the Uyghurs?” as though that’s some sort of gotcha. But on this particular topic, the Democrats are not the lesser evil. Biden had every opportunity to stop this genocide and chose not to.

And see the following link for evidence of more recent Democrat complicity in Israel’s genocide https://anarchist.nexus/post/538. The Dems will never stop supplying arms to Israel unless all the existing party leadership is kicked out.

The ‘bullying’ that consisted of downvoting comments I disagreed with? As admitted even by the ‘bullied’?

I didn’t call you a tankie until you started denying Uyghur genocide and denying sexual assault, fascist. Which was long after the ban - which I regarded as petty and annoying, but not indicative of any deeper fascist leaning.

Oh cool, it’s much better to do it with police instead of drones, and beating teenage boys to death in interrogation instead of shooting them. Whew! Close one!

“It’s just like an authoritarian version of cultural assimilation. I’m not minimizing the Uyghur genocide!”

You really have no self-awareness, huh.

Curious considering that you made those comments in a thread where you were the one who brought up Gaza, unprompted. But I’m sure calling it the Uyghur “Genocide” and saying it was overblown was just you reacting really strongly to nonexistent Gaza comparisons in the thread!

Fucking astounding projection for your fascist whataboutism.

Fascists according to pugjesus: Anyone who doesn’t ban whoever he wants, and anyone who disagrees with him about liberal democracy. Basically anyone to his left.

Not fascist according to pugjesus: People hanging out in fascist forums, and voters for genocide.

The reason I’ve been calling people fascists is quite explicitly for playing apologist for genocide.

But since you’re an ardent genocide apologist these days, I understand that upsets you.

Never have been, never will be. Won’t find me saying anything like that, but that doesn’t stop you from twisting every fact trying apparently :D

Said the actual voter for more genocide. Man, most of the politicians you support explicitly deny the most brutal genocide in the world right now. Maybe you should spend some of this outrage doing something about that instead of raging on an internet forum.

So tell me, what’s a policy of removing genocide denial, combined with leaving up denial of Uyghur Genocide and Holodomor denial?

Said the actual voter for more genocide.

I voted for Trump? That’s news to me.

Sorry that you thought sitting by and letting the fascists win was the moral position. It’s consistent though, considering your position that the literal Nazis in 1933 deserved to win because SPD Bad™.

Man, most of the politicians you support explicitly deny the most brutal genocide in the world right now. Maybe you should spend some of this outrage doing something about that instead of raging on an internet forum.

Oh yes, how dare I spend time on an internet forum that you’re trying to spread genocide denialism in. You’re absolutely right, I shouldn’t spend any time on here, it’s deeply inconvenient for your attempts to normalize Uyghur genocide denial and fucking Holodomor denial. Clearly opposing genocide online means I don’t participate in political action anywhere else. I mean, if I did, that might make you feel bad about being a fascist bootlicker.

I give it a year before you start simping for Ukranian genocide, just like all the tankies giving you asspats for being their good little bootlicker.

Nah man, I’ve already spent my quota of arguing with genocide supporters and liars for the day.

Arguing with yourself again?

Maybe you can argue yourself out of supporting Holodomor denialism.

Once again, I have never done that, unlike you, who voted for the “more genocide” party. Unfortunately, only one of us has actions that directly support genocide ;)
