Well for one thing, you (or the West for that matter) didn’t create the word genocide, it was coined by a Polish-Jewish lawyer named Raphael Lemkin. In his book, the Axis Rule in Occupied Europe he showed his research of the way the Nazi occupied Europe and narrated how he thought the crimes the Nazi committed against the Polish during their occupation came down to 5 main policies that displayed their will to completely destroy the Polish nation which included:

1) The mass killings of Poles

2) Bringing “serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group”,

3) Planned deterioration of living conditions "calculated to bring about their destruction

4) Implementation of various "measures intended to to prevent births within the group" such as promotion of abortions, burdening pregnant women, etc.

5) Forced transfer of Polish children to German families

He used these instances as proof for the Nazi plan to completely terminate the Polish identity and these markers are still used by the Genocide Convention as proof of genocidal intentions. He also used this word to describe the atrocities that Nazi committed against the Jewish people during the Holocaust. Lemkin also spent the rest of his time advocating for an international convention to stop the rise of “future Hitlers”, and on December 9, 1948 the U.N. authorized the Genocide Convention, which had many of its clauses based on Lemkin’s own research and proposals.

Also this is a very narrow idea of racism and discrimination. Anti-semitism was rampant in American and Western society years before Hitler came into power. I mean in 1942, American literally turned away a boat load of Jewish people seeking refuge. People didn’t look at Jews and think “Oh man they look just like us, so their murders must be important and we have to create a word that describes their condition and the crimes being committed against because we care sooooo much about them”. In reality, most people didn’t really given a shit about all of the Jews being murdered, only when America and the West was being directly threatened by war did they retaliate.

So no, the West didn’t coin the word Genocide to describe the atrocities that Nazi Germany inflicted because the victims looked like them or whatever, the word was created by Polish-Jewish lawyer to describe the oppression that his people were put under.

Ukrajinci sestrelili še tri Aligatorje Ka-52, v prvih Leopardih 2 že Ukrajinci

Ukrajinci so ponoči Rusom sestrelili kar tri helikopterje Ka-52 (Kamov Ka-52, znan je tudi kot Aligator), je objavila ukrajinska vojska. Te helikopterje ruska vojska obsežno uporablja pri okupaciji Ukrajine in jih je bilo zaradi tega doslej že veliko sestreljenih. Le v prvih nekaj mesecih invazije na Ukrajino jih je z neba padlo 27. A doslej se ni zgodilo, da bi skoraj hkrati Ukrajinci sestrelili…

holodomor denial is genocide denial. the systematic starvation of an entire people is not something for you to debate on the internet with your lenin pfp and your xi jinping header while you sit in your warm safe home with a full stomach and plentiful access to food. the generational epigenetic trauma that is irrevocably coded into modern ukrainians’ dna after the scale of manufactured starvation that their families experienced is not a ‘narrative’ or a ‘lie’, it’s proof of an atrocity that you’re continuing by denying its existence.

despise the west all you want but do not sit back and enjoy the comforts it gives you while handwaving the experiences of millions of ukrainians. there’s plenty of propaganda out there for you to be mad about. there’s plenty of it on your own fucking blogs. you don’t need to start shitting on the graves of my family’s dead ancestors.

yeah. they are u fucking moron.

imagine saying shit like this while transphobic hate groups primarily championed by cis women are lobbying and voting to have trans people forcibly detransitioned. the senator who put forth a bill in my state to make sports sex segregated was a woman. the vast majority of the people who were protesting the trans clinic in my city were women. the person who got it essentially shut down was a woman. some of the strongest voices in the fight against transgender rights right now are white cis women.

what fucking planet are u all living on.

Hot take but we should treat people who fill their blogs with pictures of Stalin and Mao with the same level of suspicion we treat people who fill their blogs with portraits of Hitler and Mussolini.

The Glorious Revolution stuff is so irritating honestly. Like yes Revolutions can be justified in some cases, however they are a weapon of Last Resort.

Revolution is what you turn to when it's the worst case scenario and nothing else is working. Why? Because they cause a heck of a lot of collateral damage, primarily impacting vulnerable communities that need actual help, and it's always preferable to pick the option that causes the least amount of damage.

We aren't there yet, and you shouldn't want to be there. Calling for a Revolution now is so incredibly dangerous because we can still do so much to enact meaningful change without causing massive amounts of collateral damage, and we should do those things instead.

And if you think it would be somehow better if we were in such a bad situation that a revolution would be necessary, I honestly don't think you are being serious. We shouldn't want things to get worse just so we have the excuse to pull out an incredibly destructive tool in order to fix the mess. That's not a reasonable proposal in the slightest.

^^^^

I think it's because it's easier to reject the entire system and roleplay revolutionaries than it is to decide what is and isn't there to keep in deeply corrupt democracies

thank you for your essay azeriaisis

really disappointing that bunjywunjy had to be pestered twice just to quietly remove their reblog after using their huge platform to encourage garbage like raving about the lesbian estonian soviet flag and how 'new pride flag just dropped' so people could go 'ooh pretty' about a flag that was forced onto us by ppl who wanted our culture gone and oppressed us for about a century in total if not more.

to say nothing or not show anything of the truth about that flag and quietly remove the reblog felt more like it was done out of obligation (and you didn't agree) rather than care for the subject matter that is still a fresh wound in our country's memory. it's only been 33 years since it ended.

I'd rather you make the mistake about something you didn't know (eastern european history is easy for westeners to overlook, because we're not a big country like them, we're not england or france or spain or germany) and admit/apologize for said mistake or even just outright state that you don't actually care rather than say nothing and quietly remove something so that people would stop talking about it

Sunak Ukrajini pošilja Challengerje, o nemških Leopardih razprava v Natu. Še en goreči T-90M

Dogovori o pomoči s težkimi nemškimi tanki v Natu. Poljska jih ima 142 in bi jih takoj poslala sosedi v stiski.

Velika Britanija je napovedala dostavo štirinajst težkih bojnih tankov Challenger 2 Ukrajini, kar je predvsem sporočilo Nemčiji. Britanski tanki, ki jih uporabljajo še v Omanu, na bojišču za Ukrajince ne pomenijo velike spremembe, ker jih je premalo. Za resnejše spremembo v spopadih z Rusijo Ukrajina potrebuje več sto težkih zahodnih tankov in tudi logistiko zanje. Velika Britanija toliko…
