Don’t let Lemmygrad see this article. They’ll ban the European Parliament.
It's not genocide if the communis... the dictatorshi... the ... Fuck your banned!
ml, hexbear & lemmygrad probably.
Yup
Some ml guy had a copy/pasta with about five links from obscure news sites describing how there was no genocide in China. And how inclusive it was towards religions...
Rofl
Inclusive asong as you remove any ideological symbols and replace them with pictures of Winny the pooh
I mentioned it around them once, responses claimed it either never happened it happened but briefly and was ended.
There was no genocide.
There were mass detentions where people would be picked up for minor crimes and sent for job training, according to Wapo, at least some of them were closed/repurposed before 2022, presumably in 2020.
There is plenty of room to criticize sending someone for 6+ months of trade school because they didn't have a job and got caught doing some incredibly minor crime and analyze what China has done in the past and why they did this, but libs can't have that conversation when they're invested in a crazy conspiracy theory.
Genocide denialism - it's okay when everybody does it!
Genocide denial is okay when it's done by a country claiming to be communist
They’ll just change the topic and drown you in whataboutisms, logical fallacies, and availability heuristics.
