    All major human rights organisations in the world call Gaza a genocide.

    Can someone link me just one which calls it the “Uyghur genocide”?

            “Genocide is the wrong word to describe the horrors in XinJiang”

            Wow great job on that one. You found the word genocide in a link in the 160 page report and it proves my point.

            A link is not a claim by Amnesty by the way.

              you haven’t even read that article, headline reader. If you did, you’d know that’s a deliberately provocative headline. lol

              or the amnesty one for that matter

              you also don’t know how sources work

              quadruple F

                The 160 page report also does not contain Amnesty using the term genocide.

                It only contains the three links which you pretend are evidence because you know you are utterly wrong.

                Is there even an accusation of the crime of “Extermination”? Which is basically genocide without proving intent. That is what Israel got initially.

                  Is your argument legitimately over the usage of a word? You won’t even entertain any of the human rights abuses because it doesn’t contain your safe word? That’s not how literacy works.

                  Okay, well, the term “violation” is mentioned 80 times. “Abuse” 24 times. “Detain/detainees” mentioned 721 times.

                    Yes words have meaning. Guantanamo Bay is also many human rights abuses but not targeted extermination of an entire group.

                    Thank you for conceding the argument. I agree with the second paragraph of your comment.

                  He whines against china and russia only to deflect people from his own guilt.

              I make exceptions for admins, and you certainly want to engage, considering you’ve been downvoting comments critical of tankies in the past.

                Voting is absolutely not “wanting to engage”. Also jumping to conclusions based on voting patterns is just a recipe for drama.

                  Well you got a link and it didn’t say genocide, so therefore they think it’s genocide. And now you’re banned for asking for proof.

Welcome to MoG!

Meanwhile On Grad

Documenting hate speech, conspiracy theories, apologia/revisionism, and general tankie behaviour across the fediverse. Memes are welcome!


What is a Tankie?

Alternatively, a detailed blog post about Tankies.

(caution of biased source)


Basic Rules:

Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. — Basically, don’t be a dick.

Hate-Speech — You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.

Apologia — (Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism, Islamic Terrorism or any variation of Tankie Ideology.

Revisionism — No downplaying or denying atrocities past and present. Calling Tankies shills, foreign/federal agents, or bots also falls under this rule. Extremists exist. They are real. Do not call them shills or fake users as it handwaves their extremism.

Tankies can explain their views but may be criticised or attacked for them. Any slight infraction on the rules above will immediately earn a warning and possibly a ban.

Off-topic Discussion — Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post, rather than engaging in argument.

Brigading — If you’re here because this community was linked in another thread, please refrain from voting, commenting or manipulating the post in any way. All votes are public, and if you are found to be brigading, you will be permanently banned.

You’ll be warned if you’re violating the instance and community rules. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction will double the amount. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.
