        Tell you what. I’ll deny there is any genocide in Gaza on the exact same basis that you’re denying it for the Uyghurs. Does that work for you? If it really has to be “extraordinary”, then it has to be applied equally.

        Or is this not something like, say, UFOs or homeopathy where we actually need extraordinary evidence?

          There is evidence of significant mistreatment of Uyghurs in China. The poster is a deliberate liar covering the interest of the government of China. This is a matter for moderators, they’re not talking in good faith.

            I know. I specifically want to target this phrase “extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence”, because I’ve noticed it being increasingly abused to ignore evidence.

            Nah, all I see are pictures from Russian outlets.

            See how easy that was to pretend there is no evidence?

                should i even try to argue with this in good faith?

                No, you should go back to the cesspool of thoughtless praxis that is .ml.

                  Do not feed the troll. They’re fighting for mindspace. Just answering the top-level comments denies them the right to exist without direct contradiction.

                  We know they’re lying, and everyone really willing to challenge the idea will find enough on the Internet to find the right anwser. Now’s the right time for you to disengage. No need to give a platform to those disgusting nazis.

                  Mission accomplished. More tankies banned.
