        Go to your website and ask about the Uighur and Rohingya genocide in China. Bring a stopwatch.

            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Uyghurs_in_China?wprov=sfla1

            Since 2014, the government of the People’s Republic of China has committed a series of ongoing human rights abuses against Uyghurs and other Turkic Muslim minorities in Xinjiang which has often been characterized as persecution or as genocide. There have been reports of mass arbitrary arrests and detention, torture, mass surveillance, cultural and religious persecution, family separation, forced labor, sexual violence, and violations of reproductive rights.

              Why doesn’t your page say “Uyhur genocide”?

              I’ve got “Rohinga genocide” and “Gaza Genocide”. Does .ml run Wikipedia?

          That’s like saying “go and ask about the white genocide in South Africa” and thinking you made a good point.

          Also lol at “Rohingya genocide in China”. You people don’t even know what the words you use refer to.

          I can’t believe liberals are still trotting this stupid shit out while we’re witnessing a genocide happening in Gaza.

          Comparing whatever you think is happening in China to the livestreamed holocaust we’re all participating in is disgusting.

              You’re basically doing genocide denial when you equivocate Israel’s genocide with Russia’s war or China’s anti-terrorism campaign. What Israel is doing and we’re all seeing is far beyond whatever you think Russia or China are doing.

              The civilian death toll in Ukraine is 15,400, and while we don’t even know the real death toll in Gaza but it might be over 100,000. Israel is systematically starving everyone to fucking death, now children are dying every day of starvation. Israel baits starving people with food and then mows them down with machine guns and bombs. One is a war, the other is a holocaust.

          Which one can you link the Wikipedia page saying Ukraine genocide? Somehow I can’t find anyone saying there is a genocide in Ukraine.

          It’s almost like you’re trying to devalue the actual term genocide, which is being committed by Europe and America right now in Palestine.
