The fact is there is hard evidence for a genocide in one case, and not in the other. If you have other reasons to believe the latter is still happening, then make them known. Otherwise it is no more plausible than telling elephants may dwell on the moon, despite no sightings.
I read and I believe I understood your points. The problem is no one actually used the argument you are trying to oppose. You interpreted that comment too literally. Not once they said that no seen corpses meant no deaths. Had you not assumed so wildly and acted so bluntly, you’d be understood better. You can block me If this is annoying you.
No actually the complete absence of evidence for the uighur genocide compared to the overwhelming body of evidence for the palestinian genocide makes for an extremely strong argument that the former is fictional
I have spoken to Uyghurs in Xinjiang and I have engaged on Xitter with their government-in-exile in Washington D.C. and I know who I stand with on this issue. I hope to see Xinjiang with my own eyes someday soon. The Taklamayan Desert is too captivating, even in pictures. I must hold its grains in my hand. Soon. The sands are calling @balance8873@lemmy.myserv.one. The sands are calling.
That having been said I don’t actually know why you’re responding to me. It sounds like you have some kind of actual evidence backing up your beliefs (whatever those beliefs may be) which means you don’t fall into the category of stupid we were discussing.
Big claims require big evidence, especially when they’re coming from the US about alleged human rights violations that coincidentally happen to justify our preexisting foreign policy goals
I have seen far too many dead Palestinians and zero dead Uyghurs
You have to know that’s a terrible argument, right?
So evidence is useless. Is that what you are saying?
I’m not repeating this conversation with someone who is as openly aggressive as you out of the gate. Read the rest of this comment chain.
Oh no! Someone met my energy with the exact same energy! What an asshole!
I’m not the one calling valid observations dumb arguments.
I’ve never seen anyone die, does that mean they don’t?
For all I know there are living people and there are corpses but they are different things.

Ok you’re not reading so I’m not going to respond. Either read the thread and respond to the thread or stop talking to me.

So there is nothing you haven’t seen with your own eyes but acknowledge exists?
That’s the only argument we’re discussing here.

Let’s just say that Arslan Hiyadat was very impolite to me and the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach
More fun if you go via the neck
