⚠️Disclaimer! I am not a denier or even questioner of any genocides I'm aware of!⚠️ I swear to fuck I am genuinely asking this question because I don't know the answer, and using a search engine for something like this is only going to yield crackpot denier misinformation.

I have used the argument in the past, "If given all available evidence you're still not sure a genocide is happening, you can probably safely assume that it is, because humans just constantly do genocide."

And I wanted to be prepared in case whoever I'm debating says something like "well in 19XX, group A accused group B of genocide and it turns out group A was just lying to make group B look bad!"

Basically, would they be full of shit, or have humans been proven to have sunk that low too? :/

you say 'literally everyone' as if a handful of Lemmy users is some kind of control group. your cobbled handful of 'users' does not generate consent or legitimacy any more than a group of 10 year old kids in a school yard.

stop wasting my time.

but go ahead an worship your precious upvotes while I have sex with my neighbour.

    Hate to break it to you sport, but you're the one who keeps coming back for more. The only one wasting your time here is you.

    But please, don't let me distract you from your "neighbour"; I'm sure they're a real handful.
