Dreylad posted:I think everyone forgot about Guantanamo, and the fact that there are dozens of men who were completely innocent who were kept there, including at least one child soldier. Many of them have serious medical conditions they've developed from being kept there but the US will never shut it down because Americans pretty much in their totality, Democrat and Republican, are aghast at the idea of having them kept anywhere on mainland US soil. being aghast at bringing them here is just a smokescreen for extralegal jurisdiction and not being subject to any kind of transparency

Here's an article from the Washington Post: Academic faces Chinese lawsuit for exposing human rights abuses in Xinjiang again, guess who the academic is? quote:Beijing has targeted a high-profile U.S.-based researcher whose work has been critical to exposing human rights abuses in China’s northwest, with state media reporting he is being sued by companies in the Xinjiang region. notice how Victims of Communism is merely characterized as a US-based nonprofit. and then that report "released Tuesday by the Newlines Institute"? That was the one that CNN (and other media outlets) reported on, that I covered in my previous post. Stunningly, WaPo is willing to admit that Zenz was involved in that report, when other reporting didn't indicate it at all and only named the Think Tank. Indeed, you might even make the case that finding Zenz on the Contributor section of the About page of Newlines Institute wouldn't necessarily mean that he was involved in the report, and yet here is WaPo outright admitting it. and the reason why I found this on my feed was that it was posted by Matt Duss, who was advising the Bernie Sanders campaign on foreign policy. Duss was supposed to a figure that was willing to go against The Blob of the American foreign policy establishment, and yet here he is towing the line expressed by both the Trump and Biden administrations.

Yossarian-22 posted:i don't get it, why can't we just settle on china having their own guantanamo and acknowledging that it sucks and that the u.s. is just as guilty and then all hug and kiss each other instead of turning it into this high stakes thing? instead of "china has guantamo and it's good actually" vs. "XINJIANG IS AUSCHWITZ BUT IN 2021" well the problem is that "having their own guantanamo" is factually false, unless you have some reason to believe that people are not just being held indefinitely but tortured on the reg

oh no what if I get banned? would be absolutely horrible to miss out on being called a nazi in a national magazine by the wife beating owner of the website again. would suck so bad to miss out on that. itd be like if the mods never had anyone call them pedophiles again, they love it and just like with me its 100% true. just free larry and the rest and stop being think skinned baby bitches and also free me too preemptively.

the thing about online communities is that they can't really work without mods, but, also, mods can't really work in a strictly legalistic manner based entirely on a document of all-encompassing community rules. there just has to be some set of broad ethical and political values that a forums community agrees is important and which the mods uphold to the best of their ability, including by probating or banning people who do "i'm not touching you" bullshit where they skirt around the letter but not the spirit of those values. the reason the mods did stupid probations of people who failed to cleave closely enough to the state department line is that they genuinely thought those people were expressing abhorrent views out of line with those of the community, of which the mods, themselves, are also members expressing open hostility to the mods in order to provoke reprisal isn't actually a principled stand of any sort, because there's not actually some sort of sacred free speech principle here to test the formal limits of. it's just a lack of social skills
