            If you’re looking for an American genocide, the Middle East is the wrong place to look. You want the Native Americans.

            “Genocide” means something, and “stupid fucking idiotic war” isn’t it.

            It’s not illegal to discuss the crimes of the US government in the US. It is illegal to discuss the crimes of the China government in China, by the way.

              “It’s not that bad because it wasn’t an actual genocide. we already have genocide under our belt.”

              geez. how many war criminals were put to justice during that “stupid fucking idiotic war”?

              discussing does fuck all when you have laws to prevent any justice being served for the crimes you commit abroad and sanctions the people investigating it.

              and Fuck China too. There aren’t just tankies and yankies on the internet. We can be critical of both of you.

              And what has that discussion produced? Has the American murderers stopped killing people? They let you discuss, because nothing will come out of it. You have no influence to change policy.

                I mean, you certainly don’t have any control of the China government, which is still actively murdering and raping people in Xinjiang in an ongoing concerted effort to eradicate a whole ethnic group. Why do you bother denying the ongoing genocide?

                  Have I said anything good about the Chinese government or said that they are not doing evil? You are inventing fantasies in your head.

                  All I am saying is that whatever the Americans accuse China of, they themselves are guilty of the same (or worse).
