Are you jewish? Are you chinese? Are you a former USSR Citizen?
If not then i would greatly recommend not pulling that card. If my grandpa would hear you downplaying communist war atrocities he would probably shoot you. I linked 2 Books. Have you read them? Or did you just decide that my books dont count and only you and your tankie friends know what really happened?

Do u understand the religious meaning of the word holocaust? I think you don't do. Holocaust is a word specificly for the genocide on jewish people. If you wanna describe genocides done to other people I recommend to you not to use the word holocaust, because if you do, you always compare it with the crimes of the Nazis. And if you do this, you are doing holocaust-relativism. And I hope you understand why this is insensitive, cause the crimes the Nazis did is best know as industrial genocide - they gased, shot and starved people in a scale nobody can imagine. Even the crimes of the communists weren't that bad. I deeply recommend Habermas to you to understand the problem. It's not only a problem of scale, it's a philosophical problem. And because you are doing holocaust-relativism and don't want to understand what the Nazis did, I don't wanna talk to you anymore. I'm feeling sick, because of you.

It's fine dude. You're moving goalposts.
On one hand youre supporting authoritan communism on the other hand youre so sick of people calling the genocides in china holocausts.
Do you want to defend chinas genocides that caused over 60 million deaths and counting or do you wanna remind people of how bad that time was when nazis killed 6+ Million People?
Good when china, bad when Germany?
Its always the same with you tankies. You get disproven and you change to the next miniscule thing. How about you disprove that 60 Million People died in China and that china has never apologized for that, the tianenmen square massacre or the cultural revolution. How about you disprove the genocide on the people of the uyghurs.
Then we can talk again about what the CCP wants to spread as propaganda.

Oh you're comparing scales? Are we on this level? I don't know, if you have so much self-awareness, but you're doing a huge job on relativing Nazis. Why do liberals always tend to do this bullshit? Aren't you able to talk about genocides without doing it? Is there a need for it? No, it isn't. You idiots don't understand what you're doing. I can talk about the things china did, no problem - but I am getting angry, if you only want to do it, cause you love Nazis.

If you aren't a Nazi or a Liberal, why are you repeating the nonsense from them?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Because i know chinese. And you are a tankie. And because its really fun to debate with you because all your arguments are so weak and everytime i scrape away at the foundation you pivot. Like a little worm. Its just fun.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Moving goalposts still. Keep going. This is fun.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago
