Then the United Nations are holocaust deniers. Fact is that no international court or UN organ has even investigated the alleged genocide. Innocent until proven guilty.

If theres one thing I really dislike, its when people try to force their own opinion on others. Liberals do that all the time, for example when they come across someone who questions the supposed "Uighur genocide".

But its not just liberals, a lot of leftists and communists online show the same behaviour. Except they hold the opposite view on certain questions. But when faced with someone who holds the "wrong" opinion, they are just as fierce in trying to force their views on others. Edit, I should add that I also used to do this a lot.

In my opinion, this kind of behaviour wont get us anywhere. Nobody will change their opinion because someone online said that they were wrong, and threw a dozen sources at them. Instead they will probably get angry, and strengthen their belief out of spite.

I think what we should do instead is try to accept that everyone is entitled to their opinion, even if we disagree. This leads to much more fruitful discussions, where we can get to know the opinions of others without anyone getting upset. And even if we disagree on some issues, there are surely others where we agree, and can work together to make something positive.

Rant over.

The author makes some very good arguments regarding fact checking websites and media in general (even if his views on vaccinations may be questionable). He also clearly doesnt know Marxism, but if you replace the "International Cabal of Gangsters" with the bourgeoisie, it is surprisingly accurate.

 

Where have I heard this story before? Sanctions on Germany when?

All you do is keep throwing links at me which are easy to refute. But I wont do that, instead I will just give you one link: https://web.archive.org/web/20200829152829/https://docs.google.com/document/d/1d0lynghlCnR6Hs57pypEEhlhHczFVgaYX-TIZD61s_w/mobilebasic

I know that you probably wont read it. Just accept the fact that this is a controversial issue and I have a different opinion from yours.

Okay thats good, but I still dont understand what the hell you are talking about. You keep talking about atrocities in China, but all you have shown are fake news. I am not "falling on the sword" and I am not gaining anything. I have simply investigated the issue and cone to a conclusion. If you disagree with my opinion, thats not my problem.

You are literally spreading fake news right now: The Case of the Keriya Aitika Mosque. As for the wikipedia article, did you actually look at any of the sources? If you do, please let me know how many of them go back to the US funded lunatic Adrian Zenz.

I have a question for you, do you consider the massacre against Palestinians as a genocide? What about the Saudi slaughter in Yemen, or the brutal US occupation of Arabic countries in East Asia and Africa? Before you cry whataboutism, I simply want to know if you actually care about human rights, or just parrot the western narrative against its official enemies.

There is plenty of evidence out there for mosque burnings and separations of families.

I didnt see that evidence, show it to me please.

You really trust that everything is rosey in there? How naive are you?

Interesting times we are in, where asking to see evidence for a crime makes you naive. I guess judges are also naive if they dont sentence people based on hearsay.

Please show me the pictures and videos of China dropping bombs in Xinjiang, or shooting protestors "armed" with stones. And no I dont care about satellite images of buildings with fences, or whatever Zenz is claiming.

Here are some interesting facts related to this topic:

  • These claims are promoted mainly by the US government and US media
  • The USA has invaded many Muslim countries over the last decades, killing millions of innocent civilians
  • Most Muslim countries support China's Uighur policies, western nations oppose them
  • According to Biden, USA is in "extreme competition" with China
  • Xinjiang is a vital part of China's "Belt and Road" infrastructure project, because it provides the shortest path to Europe

Edit: One more thing, here is a list of terrorist attacks in Xinjiang. Note how there were no more major attacks after the vocational training program was established.

There is even a US military base in the middle of Seoul. And military police walks around (presumably to prevent their soldiers from being too violent against civilians). Also lots of night clubs in Seoul have signs that US soldiers are not allowed to enter.

I'm not into anime, but if you are then you should check out the one about Marx, from China.
