what do you mean 300 deaths isn't in any way comparable to thousands/millions of deaths during the Holocaust, Aremnian genocide, Bengal famine, Operation Condor or Japanese occupation?

[–] zephyreks@programming.dev 6 points 1 year ago

Hundreds, thousands, millions. It's all the same because people died and the people that died weren't white.

Smooth-brained western Chinese apologists is not what I was expecting from the future of the internet even 5 years ago. Our atrocities are totally cool, eh? Nice.

Atrocity propaganda is a real phenomenon used by westerners to inflate problems of non-western societies and deflate the genocides done by the west. You've fallen for it

yeah, next the internet will be defending Iraqi incubator babies or Saddam's people-shredder.

No, it is true. US tried to stir up some trouble and it didn't work. That is import to remember the people that dies because of US greed

What is a western China? There's only one China.

If you try act like a redditor and go "its what i call taiwan" then you're literally bumbling around like a drunken dipshit who insists calling the United States "Northern Florida". Although if we're to make more accurate historical inference, it would be apt to say you're the equivalent of those "The South Shall Rise Again" cross-burning confederate dipshits that never shut up about the massive L you took

They mean Chinese apologists from the west.

I for one am not apologizing for much of anything really. Mistakes have been made but the party has grown from that and critiques those. None of these are what these anti-chinese people are saying though

Nope, believe it or not, its possible to believe that killing civilians is wrong, regardless of who does it.

Consider the hypothetical, Texas has decided to secede and has had a majority of the population vote on a referendum to do so. Rather than becoming independent they wish to join Mexico, Mexico agrees as there is a large portion of Texas that speaks Spanish and there is a historical precedent of Mexico owning that territory.

The rest of the United States doesn't want this and considers this illegal, a nationalist division of the U.S military decides to engage in sustained artillery bombardment of the cities: Dallas, Austin, and Houston.

Mexico seeing the devastation of people now considered Mexican organizes two separate talks to try and work out some sort of cease fire and pathway forward that respects the will of the people. The nationalist division pays no mind to any sort of agreement and continues the bombardment, Mexico decides that enough is enough and sends its military in to secure Texas as well as destroy the nationalist division.

In this analogy, the United States is Ukraine, Texas is the Donbass, and Mexico is Russia.

Sadly war is hell, if only the peace talks weren't sabotaged by Boris Johnson otherwise the Russia-Ukraine war would be over.

But you are currently admitting it happened, right?
