Like was it a meaningful debate or a flat out flame war? And what was the main theme you were arguing over?

      No it’s called being consistent. I understand you prefer being a hypocrite but personally I prefer holding consistent values. If something lacks conclusive evidence it is perfectly reasonable to be sceptical and question it.

        You’re presenting two extreme views when in actuality you can look at the evidence and the people making the claims and know there’s way more choices then those two options you presented so it’s a false dichotomy.

        Anyways since you’ve proven my point I think this conversation is done.

          Yes you can look at evidence and have questions exactly. Questioning things not backed by conclusive evidence is the reasonable normal thing to do. Thank you for agreeing even if by accident.

              But you did. You agreed that you can look at the evidence and who’s saying it and draw your own conclusions. This supports what I’ve been saying the whole time. You are the one who kept saying any questioning of events labelled genocide is genocide denial.

                You’re denying genocide and using Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes as proof.

                I’m using international organizations and countries as mine yet you claim they are the same.

                  Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes as proof.

                  Literally when did I do that? Just to be clear I don’t think there is white genocide going on in either South Africa or Europe my whole point is your logic of calling all questioning of claims lacking conclusive evidence as genocide denial is idiotic as it means you must accept these also

                  I’m using international organizations and countries as mine yet you claim they are the same.

                  Sorry I didn’t realise Egypt, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Thailand, the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, the World Bank, and the UN weren’t international groups worthy of listening to.

                    Russia’s violently imperial war in Ukraine is not only a flagrant violation of international law and interstate norms, but it also carries all the hallmarks of an ongoing campaign of genocide in Ukraine. From Russian dictator Vladimir Putin’s 7,000-word screed that systematically and historically denies Ukrainian nationhood; to mass graves uncovered in almost every Ukrainian territory liberated from Russian occupation; to the Kremlin’s public campaign of mass deportation and of Ukrainian civilians and children through “filtration” concentration camps; to the deliberate targeting of maternity hospitals, medical facilities, schools, and basic civil infrastructure; to the widespread employment of rape and sexual violence as a weapon of terror—rarely has genocidal intent and pattern of action been so clearly telegraphed and demonstrated for the world to see.
