sick af. I don’t write as much these days (read none at all) because I’m busy with lots of stuff but I’m glad someone was impacted by my writing.

Yooo 22 days later but thank you for quoting from my essay!!

“Terrorists” such as 1-year-old children. Nobody believes Zionist propaganda anymore, you’re yelling into the void.

dym the ex-KGB and military guy vs the literal comedian that played piano with his dick on TV? Do you really think Zelensky would win this?

“”“”““leftist””“”“”

5 is inaccurate for Ukraine, they’re proud of the war crimes they commit.

In what world was Guaido elected president lol, he was president of the assembly yes but that has nothing to do with being president and that specific title is not put to a democratic vote

that’s great honey

Stop lying, the modlogs are open for everyone to see. You were banned from one community, not the whole instance, for defending NATO – not criticising Russia.

>Redditor discovered Lemmy isn’t an echo chamber
>it hurt itself in its confusion

Remind me who has hypersonic missiles real quick pls

We will tread where we please!

It’s true, I’ve only read Adorno and Gramsci but I said I read Marx once at a party and it just kinda snowballed from there and I couldn’t come clean after that, I was in too deep 😔

Edit: oh and harry potter too.

no way bro can you point me to some people who were banned from lemmygrad.ml for questioning the christi fascist oligarchy?

Be respectful to your comrades. The rest of the rule which you didn’t copy: This is a safe space where all comrades should feel welcome. The rules only apply to lemmygrad,

Honestly we should balkanize the whole world. What’s even this leftist drivel about peace and prosperity. Go back to feudalism. It worked for 1000 years. Then we should balkanize what we balkanized too, just for good measure. I mean why stop at the first balkanisation, right?

Literally going back to Goebbels propaganda 😂 what’s it gonna be next, russians are sending human waves against himars? there’s only 1 rifle for 2 soldiers?

how’s it feel to get your first ratio on lemmy?

The claim to establish the basis for the separatist movement in Xinjiang, which was picked up and promoted by the State Department is that of East Turkestan, which is essentially separating Xinjiang from China and creating an Uyghur/Turkic ethnostate (one that makes no sense because Uyghurs are also not solely Muslim, they don’t form one homogenous group, and the province has long been the home of many different ethnicities. Uyghurs themselves are primarily descended from the Qigour/Ouigour people, who are not Turkic whatsoever).

The basis of the East Turkestan claim is advanced by the likes of the World Uyghur Congress, who gives themselves an authoritative name but is really just an arm of the NED with ties to other far-right organisations that fight for the same dream. Here is a page on the WUC website clearly laying it out:

Deconstructing the claim that Uyghurs are Turks or sufficiently related to them to give a foundation to the East Turkestan claim (which is part of the broader Pan-Turkism ideology, a fascist idea) is primordial to deconstructing the whole narrative around the “genocide”. But you’re right that we glossed over the overall importance and context of why this matters, we assumed that everyone would already aware that the US was a proponent of the East Turkestan theory and could have made the links clearer.

The USA of course is hoping that by funding, training, and promoting a separatist group, there will be an independent Xinjiang who will sell their oil rights to them and cut China off from the belt&road land route.

Edit: note that the contentious point was about the Turkic/Turk/Turkish wording. I think all of us involved in that discussion on Twitter speak English as a second language, so perhaps some connotations on the differences between these three words escaped us during the discussion.
