I don't really know where the line should be drawn but I feel like there's a lot of acreage between endorsing or justifying the wide-spread repression of an ethnic minority (obviously gross and bad), quibbling about the evidence (okay in the context of the entire case for genocide resting on the 'research' of one right-wing nutcase), and questioning whether the U.S' claims of genocide would be in play with any country in the world it wasn't trying to regime change (a good and valuable discussion to have). I guess I don't get why U.S. propaganda about what's taking place inside China should be the mod-sponsored law of the land in this supposedly left wing-oriented forum, at least let us fight and argue about it maybe we'll all learn something new from doing so???

I can't believe I allowed the Xinjiang and ALD controversies to distract me from the true outrage in C-SPAM moderation: Dustcat thinks a bunch of used car dealers and realtors nearly magically became our coup government by stepping foot on the floors of the capitol

Gringostar posted:im sure a global pandemic that originated in china has literally no bearing on these numbers at all lmao it goes up to 60/26 unfavorable in 2019, do you think people then were subconsciously sensing that covid would break out the next year or do you think there might be some other explanations?

Also interesting to note that back in the late 80s/early 90s there was a huge amount of discussion in US politics and newspapers etc about Japan overtaking the U.S's economy, and subsequently the American public's dislike for Japan grew immensely until their economy went into perma-slump and everyone warmed up to the country. It's almost like the U.S. reacts really badly to perceived threats to its hegemony Gringostar posted:considering the spike started to occur after 2016 i can’t think of a single other explanation

Dolphin posted:No one in Cspam defends this. It's also extremely stupid to equate the two. There's a much better example under FDR. Dolphin posted:the concentration camps are an evil unto themselves, but the ones south could not be reasonable construed as a genocide. Dolphin posted:yes they are.

Dolphin posted:actually i equated them directly to something the us did so this is some bad faith bullshit Why do you feel so confident that there's a genocide in Xinjiang and not on the U.S. Southern border? What's your methodology or evidence you're relying on?
