Rime posted:If the forums can permaban an admin for genocide denial, they can probate the tankies for genocide denial until they stop kramering in and making GBS threads up unrelated threads with very tedious and unfunny posts denying an ongoing genocide. quote:When the D&D mods told you not to post in D&D they weren't kidding. Since this is the second time you've decided to openly disregard this, I'm dropping a couple of weeks to make it clear that the admins will support them in this. Can I assume this poster isn't posting/reporting in good faith, mods? Because if so, if they are behind the reports you guys are taking seriously then lol. My feedback for Xinjiang is that I don't know what the gently caress is going on, it probably sucks and I'd like to be able to see leftists talk about it without mods wading in to decide one way or the other. The losing side will be the one who can't post without melting down about it - as is CSPAM tradition. Otherwise, THS hit it perfectly on the nail: THS posted:I dont think there is any way to setup a poll of active CSPAM posters that wouldnt be abused, but anecdotally the active participants of the threads do not have an issue with the topic as it was being discussed, or at least do not consider banning it as being appropriate even if they disagree. If someone from the Trump thread or D&D or GBS cant handle a discussion of China that doesnt obsessively manufacture consent for the new cold war with China, they should probably not read the LF or China threads in CSPAM.

Gringostar posted:forcibly removing children from their parents and putting them into homes from someone of a different culture is 100% a genocide and it 100% happened along the southern boarder It's like Trabisnikof said, theres multiple definitions so it depends on how technically correct you want to be. Are the camps designed to kill them? No, they're designed to make more money for private contractors and deter more refugees and immigrants. They aren't designed to kill, so in that way they aren't a genocide... but people do die there due to the horrific conditions which the US is engaging in due to lack of care, humanity and because it makes more money. In that way, it is a genocide. THS posted:also to take a step back and reiterate on the point of this thread, i dont think any of the discussion so far constitutes thoughtcrimes so bad that it has to be purged from cspam, regardless of what point of view they have been arguing Agreed 100%. This has been interesting to read, as someone with little knowledge of the situation outside of cultural osmosis. I do want dolphin to keep posting though, because the combination of cspam style "scream at your opponent" and dnd style "post a source you found on Google you haven't read and assume its a slam dunk" has been entertaining.

John Charity Spring posted:yeah Bread and Roses banned or drove off anyone who said things like "China is treating the Uyghurs badly but it's not a genocide in the sense of death camps" because the admin line there is basically the Rime approach and it was insufficiently strident and condemnatory. also anyone who said they were a communist not an anarchist got labelled a tankie, it was a bad time all round This does not surprise me, based on the posters that left and stayed gone lol

Serf posted:what is the conclusion we've arrived at? it feels like nothing has been actually agreed upon and things are even worse than when we started My guess is that this thread has proven that so long as you post "there's something happening and it's bad" at some point then the admins won't swoop in to ban for genocide denial.

Serf posted:the only issue with the xi = pooh bear joke is that its old hat, run into the ground by libs. its like the "trump and putin are gay for each other" thing, although that one was never funny I can see this, but I haven't seen enough of it to run it into the ground for me. So it still makes me lol.

THS posted:i regret to inform everyone that i did give cspam too much credit. a lot of people here have not internalized a pure hatred for amerikkka and that’s why they continue to do a both sides thing. please continue with the whataboutism, it’s good and necessary

oxsnard posted:all I'm saying is that "US/western imperialism is bad" is a base viewpoint among leftists. So while it's fine to point out the hypocrisy when joe biden or mike bolton try to wring their hands about chinese genocide, I don't think it's a particularly helpful point of reference on an ostensibly leftist internet forum But what is the point then of continuing to belabor that China bad too? Who does it benefit except to own posting enemies? There is, at least , a benefit to westerners and Americans talking about American crimes because we can at least do something about it more than just have our country rattle a saber at a foreign power. If you just want people to admit China is doing a very bad thing, then congrats you seem to have already gotten it from everyone here. What else, then, is the goal?

It's only called "tankie" if you support tanks from the hungarian region, otherwise it's called sparkling armories

Gringostar posted:since this thread is going to be closed tonight I just want to say that everyone that's not super critical of china itt is a privileged bad faith actor that opposes human rights and you should honestly be praising the democrats for reinventing themselves as progressives It's true, all of it.
