I have seen far too many dead Palestinians and zero dead Uyghurs
You have to know that's a terrible argument, right?
So evidence is useless. Is that what you are saying?
I'm not repeating this conversation with someone who is as openly aggressive as you out of the gate. Read the rest of this comment chain.
I'm not the one calling valid observations terrible arguments.
No actually the complete absence of evidence for the uighur genocide compared to the overwhelming body of evidence for the palestinian genocide makes for an extremely strong argument that the former is fictional
So there is nothing you haven't seen with your own eyes but acknowledge exists?
That's the only argument we're discussing here.
I have spoken to Uyghurs in Xinjiang and I have engaged on Xitter with their government-in-exile in Washington D.C. and I know who I stand with on this issue. I hope to see Xinjiang with my own eyes someday soon. The Taklamayan Desert is too captivating, even in pictures. I must hold its grains in my hand. Soon. The sands are calling @balance8873@lemmy.myserv.one. The sands are calling.
So who do you stand with?
That having been said I don't actually know why you're responding to me. It sounds like you have some kind of actual evidence backing up your beliefs (whatever those beliefs may be) which means you don't fall into the category of stupid we were discussing.
Let's just say that Arslan Hiyadat was very impolite to me and the way to a man's heart is through his stomach
More fun if you go via the neck

Big claims require big evidence, especially when they're coming from the US about alleged human rights violations that coincidentally happen to justify our preexisting foreign policy goals
