Flippant Anarchism. A lighter take on social criticism with the aim of agitation.
Post humorous takes on capitalism and the states which prop it up. Memes, shitposting, screenshots of humorous good takes, discussions making fun of some reactionary online, it all works.
This community is anarchist-flavored. Reactionary takes won't be tolerated.
Don't take yourselves too seriously. Serious posts go to !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.
-
Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.
-
No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

This is an anarchist comm. You don't have to be an anarchist to post, but you should at least understand what anarchism actually is. We're not here to educate you.
-
No shaming people for being anti-electoralism. This should be obvious from the above point but apparently we need to make it obvious to the turbolibs who can't control themselves. You have the rest of lemmy to moralize.

You're correct, that is what the meme is referencing.
However, I responded to your statement attempting to deny photographic evidence of violence.
14 independent sources; yet you still are denying the evidence and moving goalposts.
This is what you wrote as of this comment:
It seems like some evidence of violence against them exists, and has been corroborated by multiple sources.
"14 independent sources", none of which provides photographic evidence of violence? These "leaks" are mostly reports in Chinese that you have to trust have been translated accurately and unbiasedly by western political actors, not "pictures of people in concentration camps".
I also mentioned multiple times the genocide in the comment you're quoting, and you're choosing to overfocus on the single time I didn't.
So you're acknowledging that the actions in China against Uighurs also amount to genocidal?
I'm glad we're in agreement. It seemed you were trying to make a different point.
Given the sheer volume and consistency of evidence from multiple independent sources, it is difficult to dispute the compelling case of widespread human rights violations.
No, reported violations of human rights during a reduced and specific timeframe in a counter- terrorist campaign accompanied by massive investment in economic development, dont amount to genocidal.
That is if you swallow CIA propaganda only
Calling the comprehensive evidence of human rights abuses against Uighurs 'CIA propaganda' dismisses the work of:
These are not government intelligence agencies. Their findings are based on a volume and consistency of evidence that stands up to scrutiny, regardless of how inconvenient it may be to label it as such. The narrative of 'economic development' doesn't negate systematic human rights abuses.
They don't have to be to show western anti-chinese bias.
Yes, I dismiss the Amnesty International research based on lies, a.k.a. "anonymous interviews". Yes, I dismiss western-based analysis of translations of compiled gigabytes of Chinese documents. Yes, I dismiss "scholar" work based on the west.
Would you trust a Chinese university's analysis of, say, democracy in the US? Would you trust a Chinese NGO in its analysis of the treatment of Ukrainians in the ongoing conflict?
