To this I say, no. As a community, we do not deny proven genocides, like the holocaust, or the genocide against indigenous Americans by various European colonizers, or the genocide against the Congolese by Belgium, or the Bengal famine that was carried out by the British empire. In fact, denying those genocides will get you banned, here. However: we are also aware of a tendency of nations to project their crimes onto others, and to manufacture atrocity propaganda to justify overthrowing or destroying rival governments... like Libya in 2011:
From Washington Bullets by Vijay Prashad (a great book I highly recommend)
A post from Michael Parenti regarding the destruction of Libya by NATO-backed reactionaries
A headline shortly after Libya's destruction by NATO-backed reactionaries
The US government has been reenacting the fable of the Boy Who Cried Wolf, and has been cynically leveraging the very serious accusation of genocide against its geopolitical enemies. This is the source of skepticism on Xinjiang. And this is not a new strategy, yes, the Holodomor, which everyone in the US has been taught to take seriously lately, is a nazi fabrication first spread to the United States in the works of Robert Conquest. Why would the USSR deliberately starve a fellow socialist Republic? Why would Stalin, a Georgian, have some kind of Russian chauvinist grudge against Ukrainians? Why would Lenin (Donbass), Stalin (Lviv), and Khruschev (Crimea) all expand the territory of the Ukrainian SSR while also trying to kill off the people inside of it? Why would the USSR ethnically cleanse Ukrainains while simultaneously sending food aid to the starving British colony in Bengal? Natural famines and crop failures were spun by the nazis into atrocity propaganda. Also, a state does not have to be perfect to be defended against false accuations. I think China is far from perfect, but the burden of proof is on the United States to prove its accusations (which have changed in scope several times) regarding Xinjiang. Delegations from Muslim majority nations visiting Xinjiang do not agree with the United States that there is a genocide of the Uyghur people. There is however an attempt to reeducate extremist groups like ETIM. Reeducating extremists might seem a harsh government policy, but I assure you it is a better way of dealing with religious fundamentalism than drone striking weddings or air striking hospitals like the USA did in Afghanistan.
well considering you have been harassing us and our friends and you are being racist thats seems fair. what else could you expect. part of being the one of the least racist places on the internet is not tolerating racism. i dont think its wrong or hostile to call someone being racist a racist. also I should have clarified that you shouldn't expect hostility (unless you are being hostile first). the point still stands, that you are so unnecessarily angry and toxic by your post history. its not good, but I see empathy isnt going to work here.
bruh you harassed me first lmao. and I'm not racist.
in fact, you're offending me right now, and making me VERY uncomfortable. you should be kind and caring for others.
lol ok troll. have fun being miserable and sad forever. cant say I didnt try to be nice
if you cant handle this polite convo maybe the problem is you.
saying that I started harassing you and calling me racist is your version of being nice? Goodness, I'd hate to see you doing charity work.
You are a racist anti-Chinese bigot who has not taken the time to educated themselves on the stuff they speak on to even a morsel of a degree. Go back to your ducking Fox News with this bullshjt
Why would you waste your Sunday doing this?
