    I literally do not see any defending of the china’s genocide of Uyghur people.

      is it a genocide? Absolutely not.

      “On the scale of” is irrelevant. It’s a genocide or it’s not, and China is absolutely attempting genocide against the Uyghurs. That makes the post genocide denialism whether you feel like admitting it to yourself or not; the rest of us have eyes we don’t so easily ignore.

      “China is being shitty and authoritarian towards the Uyghurs, but it’s nothing like the genocide Israel is waging”, saying that Chinese influence in Myanmar is a more serious violation by the PRC than the Uyghur genocide is, and leveling a judgement of “PTB” - “Power Tripping Bastard” - towards the moderator of [MeanwhileOnGrad] for banning someone who was literally denying the Uyghur genocide.

      Combined, that’s pretty distinctly defending Uyghur genocide denial, and I would say right up on the border of denying Uyghur genocide themselves.

      If I said, “Israel is being shitty and authoritarian towards the Palestinians, but it’s nothing like the genocide the Nazis waged”, would you regard that as:

      A. Borderline genocide denial of the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people by reducing the ongoing genocide to something that is simply ‘shitty and authoritarian’ while noting that ‘real’ genocide is more than that

      OR

      B. Just making casual comparisons

        I will not play your game. There is no Uyghur genocide denial in this mod post, and you clearly try to manipulate rhetoric there.

          No game involved. Just what the admin said.
