Man, the thought terminating cliche rigging of the brains of people on these subjects is really depressing.
We make long well thought out good faith posts and get dismissed as propaganda, even though we’re just regular people with earnest opinions. Like come on, have some intellectual curiosity. Think. This isnt even a enthusiastically pro-China post. Please. If you’re going to come to our instance, please, please actually come here in good faith.
Earnest and good faith? I clicked the fucking link, there was a literal NSFW pig, shitting on its fucking testicles. Why would I listen to what they have to say after that?
99% of the post was earnest and good faith, it ended with one of our memes. Stop doing that thing libs do where they pick out one element of a post to refuse to engage with the rest of it. You’re just making excuses to not think.
Also, you’re switching lanes here anyway. You said it was propaganda. Not that you were put off by the meme at the end.
Why would I “engage in good faith in the marketplace of ideas” with authoritarian, fake communists that justify or deny brutal genocides like the Holodomor and cultural genocides of the Uyghurs? See I don’t think you’re as bad as fascists and nazis but I also find the kind of authoritarian rhetoric very scary and dangerous.
The only cultural genocide committed against the Uighurs is the one you support by believing the lies of the US and Saudi backed separatists
Uighur culture is Muslim but not traditionally super conservative; the real cultural genocide was when they banned dancing and drinking alcohol in public, not when China cracked down on the reactionary religious extremists who were oppressing Xinjiang and becoming a threat to all of China
I wish we had the power to do the same to reactionary Christians here in because re-education is the only hope for any of them
The holodomor is a lie propagated by literal nazis to downplay the actual genocide of the Holocaust and you are committing Holocaust denial every time you call it genocide
The real event you’re thinking of is the Bowlodomor, that was when Stalin loaded all the weed in into the bowl of his giant bong and inhaled it all in a single breath before exhaling a breath of smoke so large it covered the whole Ukrainian sky while saying “look at me, I’m the dragon of communism”
While that did cause a famine, to be fair it was really really funny
Easy to paint all Uighurs as enemies that need to be “saved” and “helped” by the “superior Han race” because some of them were extremists. You really don’t think Uighurs as a whole were persecuted? This is like justifying when America detained random Muslims because the Nation of Islam existed.
The holodomor is a lie propagated by literal nazis to downplay the actual genocide of the Holocaust and you are committing Holocaust denial every time you call it genocide
It’s common sense knowledge. I literally learned about both the Holodomor and Uighur persecution in history and civics class in high school, and we touched on it in a couple college classes as well. I had a textbook literally headlined “Holodomor Genocide” or something, you think everything is just western propaganda?

“denying” the “genocide” of the holodomor, or, in other words, not downplaying the actual literal Holocaust. Please, go read some serious historians and not Robert Conquest. No one who has seriously studied the issue, and actually had access to the Soviet archives thinks that it was a genocide. Take just one small fact for example: if the holodomor was a targeted genocide of Ukrainians, why did more Kazakhs die during the famine? Why do they not cry “genocide” like the Ukrainian state?
Regardless, it’s responses like this that warrant the pig poop balls. No investigation, no right to speak.
I’m sure it’s overlooked that Stalin was committing genocide on Muslims even moreso than Ukrainians!
"I’m sure I’m right, I must be! "
Again, come on man, no investigation, no right to speak. No one who has studied this more than you or I ever will believes it was a intentional genocide. Go read the new translation of Losurdo’s Stalin, that’ll do you more good than whatever it was you were going to do tomorrow.
If you like Lenin you should read about his thoughts on imperialism sometime. His works on the subject inform the views on geopolitics of the “tankies” you so despise.
(You should also read “On Authority” by Engels since you throw around the word authoritarian a lot).
What in that users post that you rejected as propaganda had anything to do with the Uighurs or Holodomor. Like, you’re wrong about those things and the facts are on our side on those issues, but I don’t even care about that. And neither do you, they’re just excuses to not engage with things intellectually for you. You dont give a fuck about Uighurs.
When they say something like “I’m not reading that propaganda!” or “Umm acktually, no u!” or “You’re being rude to me! I’m not listening to you! Waaaah!” it’s just a sign that they know they don’t actually have a counter argument anymore. They know their position is one of smug ignorance, and they’re just too pathetic to admit they might be wrong about something.

That’s a good point-- I’m sure it’s overlooked that Stalin was committing genocide on Muslims even moreso than Ukrainians!
FYI I like Lenin just not authoritarian capitalist Stalin that caused the decline of Soviet communism.
