    Oh, I see. I saw someone else make that same comparison just a minute ago.

    I guess this is the new tanky line? Try and discredit the Uyghur genocide by pretending it’s equivalent to bullshit claims about a white genocide? Nice. Clever rhetoric. Shame you seem to have exposed the astroturfy nature of your movement so blatantly with your timing there.

      I’m just trying to understand your level of acceptable evidence for what genocide is. If it’s “literally anytime anyone says the word genocide, it is a genocide no questions asked” then that’s fine. If that’s the case then lots of people call lots of things genocide all the time for nonsensical reasons, and by your measure almost everyone is a genocide denier. If it’s “I listen to right wing propaganda when it makes me feel good and confirms my racial biases and ignore it when it doesn’t” that’s fine too and would be a good thing to know about yourself.

      the only thing ‘astroturfy’ is how liberals will roll up acting like they’re ‘the most leftist’ and then try to draw a line where America’s state enemies are categorically evil, rather than just fucking organizing against the real evils happening where we all live.
