dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

"China doing genocide is bad"

"So you're saying the west doing genocide is good?"

Mfs when a whole other sentence.

A functional penal system isn't exactly genocide.

[–] WertformProphetin@hexbear.net 1 points 3 weeks ago (5 children)

Any defender of settler colonialism in the new world or Australia could say the same thing, and you would be the first to point out why it's bad.

Like it or not, Sinicisation and the destruction of mosques are colonialism and cultural genocide. The massive birth rate drop is also overwhelmingly likely to be genocidal. Even if every report about sterilisation is false, forcing an ethnic minority to have 90% less children than they were before is a genocidal policy: they want less Uighur children to exist.

Anyone who cares about the self-determination of indigenous peoples would naturally care about this too. China doesn't become ontologically evil because they do some bad stuff. No socialist project should be above critique. China is not our football team.

forcing an ethnic minority to have 90% less children

Any source on this? Even shitty fake Western news only claims more like 30% at the time.

the destruction of mosques

That was fake news. That shady Australian weapons lobby organization used satellite photos of a mosque that was being renovated and expanded. The number of mosques has increased in Xinjiang. It's undergoing a cultural revival.

forcing an ethnic minority to have 90% less children

Source for those numbers? How do you "force" people to not have kids?

Uighurs are the 2nd fastest growing ethnic group in all of China. Their population is growing both in absolute and relative terms. Westoids cannot address this.

[–] Gay_Tomato@hexbear.net 6 points 3 weeks ago

You should read through this. Make sure to check the sources for all of these. Like this.
