attack Uyghurs

and

promote violence

First link is literally just Rushan Abbas getting criticized in her AMA for helping torture people, including Uyghurs, in Gitmo. Sinophobic subreddit called her a human rights activist lol.

Second link is a screenshot of a user on genzedong questioning the validity of claims about Uyghur detentions and saying that reeducation camps are less bad than the US’ response to terrorism, which is killing a ton of people in the Middle East.

🤡 hour at Time

Time’s spiciest take on Guantanamo Bay is to cite Amnesty International calling it “the gulag of our times”. No mention of torture and Time makes the case that the US has legal right to occupy that part of Cuba.

Though honestly, Guantanamo Bay is less abhorrent than the black sites and the mass murder campaigns. The US routinely targets and destroys civilian infrastructure in Middle Eastern countries unfortunate enough to be in its crosshairs, creating famines, disease, malnutrition, and associated refugee crisis. Millions murdered. It destroys entire societies, militarily disrupting their basic social fabric in an attempt to open up markets for investment, the definition of imperialism.

Reddit likes the right wing people using their platform. For one they hardly disagree on most things. They also provide cover for reddit to get rid of left wing people/subs. That’s why reddit will never truly get rid of them. I don’t even buy the typical materialist analysis that proper moderation is prohibitively expensive for shareholders. Are we really pretending that reddit makes money? Sure, they sell advertising but what does that really mean? Reddit is way more valuable as a disinfo/cointelpro tool than shilling random products and services. It doesn’t have to make money to exist. Which means the moderation thing isn’t actually about money it’s that it would get rid of useful idiots.

Pretty sure GZD banned joke spellings of the name, but sure they incite violence, whatever

Well, yeah. Those insidious orientals are trying to hide all their racism. There’s so much of it that despite their best efforts we can still see a bit of it!!!

Anyway, hate the government not the people , etc.

The Asiatic brainpan has lots of sneaky little nooks and crannies where they hide the racism. Whereas I, a hwite intellectual, am immune to such base biases. Here let me show you with these here calipers what I mean
