Ah yeah, chronic poster Yogthos seems to think Israel genocidng Palestine isn’t ok, but Russia genociding Ukraine is ok. 🤔
Oh god they're still at it? I had forgotten that name, they were one of the first I ended up filtering after they told me I wasn't Chinese enough to have opinions on China.
I mostly just ignore their posts, but there are good posts mixed in. I point out their hypocrisy every now and then to be predictably called a western bootlicker or something along with a prefab response of irrelevant stats.
It doesn’t matter if you talk about them in other threads; they don’t actually browse Lemmy. All comments are limited to their own posts.
Could it be any more obvious what they’re doing?
That account is so deliberate and infamous, that it's somewhat curious that nothing is done to it.
Well, how do you cook your rice?
In a $300 industrial sized (slight exaggeration) Zojirushi rice cooker.
Not with a colander, if that's what you're getting at!
If you have to drain your rice, you fuckt up.
Alright he's good
With msg that's how
Invasion =/= genocide
Oh right, because they’re not pulling it off it’s only an invasion.
Ok, attempted genocide. Better, Mr. Semantics?
They're not even attempting to exterminate an entire race. Words have meanings
You’re right, they do.
gen·o·cide
[ˈjenəˌsīd]
noun
the deliberate killing or severe mistreatment of a large number of people from a particular national or ethnic group with the aim of destroying that nation or group: "a campaign of genocide" · "news of genocides went unreported"
Ukraine is a nation and Ukrainians are ethnic group.
But it's not the EnTiRe RaCe, so it's just sparkling ethnic cleansing.
