    The language in this is almost hilarious in just how hard they’re trying to throw someone under the bus. This was something they thought of, and pre-planned what, before the genocide? And then they have taken actions internally and fired so-and-so for it because it was all their fault!? Gosh, what a pickle!

      Never Again is a phrase popularised by zionist terrorist Kahane in the 70s, the original phrasing used by holocaust survivors was never forget

      Everything is political and saying “no politics” just reinforces the status quo. Not that I’d expect a Hexbear user to understand that.

          Oh okay I can’t tell when Hexbear users are being stupid on purpose and when it’s by accident. It all looks equally asinine to me. Is it also a bit when you say the Uyghur genocide doesn’t exist?

            We’re not being stupid when we say that the Uyghur genocide doesn’t exist, and anyone who says it does is either mark or hustler.

            No, because it doesn’t. You can literally hop on a plane and go there, right now, and see with your own eyes that Uyghur culture is alive and thriving.

            Genocide in Gaza, on the other hand, is quite real. You can try to hop on a boat to go see it, but the perpetrators will kidnap you before you get there.

                I’m deadly serious. Five hundred bucks, hop on a plane from LAX to Guangzhou, then grab a cheap connection to Xinjiang. There’s some great food in Hami. Try the snow melon.

                I’d suggest hopping on a plane to go check out Gaza, but the occupiers destroyed all the airports. blob-no-thoughts

      It’s a variant of

      Which is used these days to protest the Holocaust perpetrators supporting Israel.

      It seemed to acknowledge that peoples other than Jews can also be victims of genocide.

      This is considered controversial because Israel, which attempts to position itself as representing Jewish interests, is perpetrating a genocide on non-Jews as we speak. They deny that they are committing genocide.

        ohh, that makes more sense. I thought it meant never again but just for the Jews, otherwise it’s okay. Actually my take seems more accurate currently
