It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

is textbook Holocaust denial. Like "exhibits at Auschwitz" textbook.
the best bit is:
because they already reject a huge body of evidence that proves otherwise, they've stumbled into literally deconstructing their own Uighur genocide narrative with their own dogshit definitions
they've already forgotten that ever happened
until the next time they open a thread about China, at which point they'll forget about Israel and Palestine
the liberal brainpan can only conceptualise one completely individual idea at a time
i've seen people claim that about the uighurs. (iirc the real thing is that ethnic minorities weren't held to the one child policy.)
I think it's a weak argument with the Uighur genocide to point to increasing population, but to be fair the full argument is that the population is increasing AND there's no refugee crisis AND there's literally no evidence of genocide at all that wasn't just the made up ramblings of Adrian Zenz.
There's more Uyghurs, and they're living longer, and they're more educated, and they have better housing conditions, and they make more money, all taken together makes it very hard to make out genocide.
Yeah if the government wanted to do a genocide why would they exclude the allegedly genocided minorities from the harsh population control laws. Like they're literally making a law to decrease the population. You'd think that would be the perfect time to target it at minorities unfairly if you wanted to do genocide, but they didn't.
I think it's more about that they were excluded from the one child policy.
