Can you say “Israel is committing a genocide and should be stopped. All the war criminals in the IDF should go to the Hague for trial and I hope they’re hanged”?

Wow this is the first I’m hearing of this, you are the first person to tell me about this and I definitely haven’t heard all the same stuff you have since we both exist in the cultural hegemony of western capitalism.

I definitely haven’t decided to look into these claims and found nothing but lies coming from a man who says he is “on a mission from god to destroy the CPC” and Radio Free China, which is a front for the US state department and finally a cult.

You are most certainly more knowledgeable on this subject, a true scholar. Well, except for the fact that even the west has had to drop the charade and acknowledge there is not and have never been a genocide going on. But otherwise good job.

weird when Israel was committing genocidal massacres across palestine the past year there was non-stop beyond-reasonable-doubt proof that Israel was conducting an open genocide, and yet when asked for something as simple as proof that China’s “doing a genocide” there’s literally nothing but hot air and conservative think tank dollars to show.

Even your state propagandists had to admit it was a lie literally years ago.

Clinging to the “Uyghur genocide” narrative in a post-October 7th world is a little bit fucking disgusting, don’t you think?

Israel showed the world what a genocide looks like, and Hamas showed the world how hard a people being genocided will fight back.

Lmao typical. You’re trying to snake your way around what was the actual argument - that there isn’t a genocide going on.
This was the obvious thing you were asked for sources on. That you are trying to weasel your way out is also obvious.
Here’s the next possible steps for your dialogue tree

  1. You’re gonna leave and then post elsewhere about how we couldn’t be discussed with civilly. You will not mention your own dickhead behaviour.
  2. After frantic searching for any article that supports your narrative you’re either gonna link Wikipedia or a news article you haven’t read, which is either fraudulent or actually counter to your argument.
  3. You’re gonna make an edit that says something like “wow triggered all the CCP shills and bots”
  4. You will try to act “above it” and post really tired attempts at snide one-liners.
  5. You’re gonna try to act as if you have answered the query and then throw out some insane accusation in order to change the subject.
  6. Constant goalpostmoving

Hey it’s been 16 hours now, and I see that you’ve been posting through that time so I just want to let you know how predictably pathetic and intellectually lazy your behavior is. It’s honestly fucking disgusting to go around saying shit like that, without evidence, when Israel has showed the entire world what a genocide looks like in the modern media environment. You should feel deeply ashamed to conduct yourself like you have here, but I have a feeling you won’t reflect on this at all.

my favorite thing about us interacting with liberals here is how they can’t handle us talking normally. Just our normal communication style, casual chatting, is interpreted by them as wildly offensive and rude. And that’s no matter what we’re saying or how good faith we’re communicating. It felt like even when I was trying to talk normally to libs here or federated I’d have to water down everything I said, or I’d get asked to denounce Stalin or the DPRK no matter what the topic was.

Or maybe that’s just their defense mechanism? Like a squid spraying ink. When they don’t have anything concrete to say they instantly complain about manners?

That’s one of the best compliments I have ever received. Another was when I regular customer I had given my number to if they wanted me to send them reading material or podcasts on specific subjects randomly texted me one day to tell me they mentioned me at a house party vaguely and literally everyone was like “is that the cool anarchist commie guy at [grocery store]” Made me really think my agitprop in retail hell is not for nothing.

Yeah it’s either that or someone getting defensive when people gently explain to them that something they said was (intentionally or not) extremely reactionary, insulting, bigoted etc. so then everyone just gives up being more polite than they deserved to begin with.

Hexbear gets reaaaally hostile when it’s obvious that a person is acting in bad faith and not at all worth talking to. The crowd does not waste its time trying to engage bad faith actors and instead just switches over to hostility, pigpoopballs or fart noises.

If someone seems in good faith or willing to actually learn then it’s pretty reasonable.

I believe it’s really all they know. it’s how they’ve been trained by MSM to think and speak. It’s how they argue with conservatives, who have been similarly trained. When they are confronted with a different pattern they discover they have no other method in their arsenal and are compelled to switch to ego-defense.

Yeah that’s it. I’ve worn down enough of them to see the pattern play out time and again. After that comes aggression and insults and if then you get “lol you triggered?”

My favourite thing to do is to ask them a simple question and then point out how they never answer it.

My second favourite thing to do is to explain why Wikipedia isn’t a good source.

My third most favourite thing to do is take a shit so big it tears my asshole in two. Gotta eat less fiber I guess.

Typical tankie, ignoring objective facts when they dislike them. Go give me a link to one of your little red pamphlets which aren't biased at all. I enjoy this little game we have, let me debumk you some more. I haven't even talked about Venezuela or the holodomor yet (if you haven't heard of it, here's a hint: it's one of the reasons your daddy isn't that good of a guy).

I literally overheard some chud on a train argue that point with a friend, and used that to conclude that that’s why communism will never work. If everyone gets paid the same, then what’s the challenge???

He reminded me of that 20th century banker in the TNG episode “The Neutral Zone”, who wakes up in the 24th century after being thawed from his cryogenic state, and then asks Picard what even the point of living is in that century if material needs no longer exist, and people’s want for riches and possessions is no longer a thing. Picard skillfully schools his ass.
