4 hours agoI do. Unless you are in immediate danger, to me, it’s running for the hills instead of getting involved and fighting back. It’s a cop out. But to each their own I suppose.

How is China Imperialist
12 dash line, Belt and road is just neo-colonialism debt traps and soft power grabs, consistent threats to the sovereignty of Bhutan, Taiwan, the Phillipines and more. Financial and material aid to both sides of the conflict in Myanmar, weapon sales to Russia for use in Ukraine, etc.
You’re either incredibly dishonest or incredibly fucking stupid

Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide
Article II
In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:
Killing members of the group;
Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.
Reeducation camps are an effort to destroy Uighur culture and are absolutely a genocide. At least 4 of those 5 conditions are met. You don’t need gas chambers or mass extermination, that’s just one way genocide can manifest.
Detainees had no privacy. They were monitored at all times, including when they ate, slept, and used the toilet. They were forbidden to talk freely with other detainees. When detainees were permitted to speak – to other detainees, guards, or teachers – they were required to speak in Mandarin Chinese, a language many of them, especially older people and those from more rural areas in Xinjiang, did not speak or understand. Detainees were physically punished if they spoke in a language other than Mandarin.
There was insufficient food, water, exercise, healthcare, sanitary and hygienic conditions, fresh air, and exposure to natural light. Detainees had draconian restrictions placed on their ability to urinate and defecate. All detainees were required to “work” one- or two-hour shifts monitoring their cellmates every night. Many former detainees reported that during the first few days, weeks, or sometimes months after arriving at the internment camps, they were forced to do nothing but sit still – often in terribly uncomfortable positions – for nearly the entire day.
At some point after arriving nearly all detainees were subjected to highly regimented classes. The typical schedule included three or four hours of classes after breakfast. Then detainees had lunch and a short “rest”, which often involved sitting still on a stool or with their heads still on their desks. After lunch there was another three or four hours of classes and then dinner, followed by a few hours to sit or kneel on a stool and silently “review” the day’s material or to watch more “educational” videos. At nearly all times during classes, detainees were required to look straight ahead and not to speak with their classmates. Classes often involved memorizing and reciting “red” songs – that is, revolutionary songs that praise the CCP and the People’s Republic of China.
Source I highly recommend downloading and reading the whole report.
On December 9, 2021, the Tribunal delivered its judgment. In its judgment, the Tribunal established the following facts. Hundreds of thousands to over one million were arbitrarily detained and exposed to cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment. Testimony described overcrowded cells, sometimes holding around 50 detainees in roughly 22 square meters (or 237 square feet), with little space to lie down. Detainees used buckets as toilets, monitored by Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV), with no privacy.10
Detainees were tortured without any legitimate reasons. Witnesses identified a range of torture practices, such as fingernail removal, beatings, extended immobilization in “tiger chairs,” immersion in cold water, and confinement in cages too small to stand or lie down. Multiple testimonies described long-term heavy shackles and restraints, in some cases lasting for months.11
Widespread sexual violence occurred, affecting both male and female detainees. One account described the gang rape of a young woman, about 20 or 21, in front of roughly 100 other detainees forced to watch. Female detainees faced sexual assaults with electric devices and metal rods. Some were raped by people who paid for access to detention facilities. Witnesses reported severe food deprivation (sometimes withheld as a punitive measure), solitary confinement in dark or always-lit cells, long-term sleep deprivation, and humiliation.12
Deaths were linked to abuses in detention. Testimony indicated that younger detainees were occasionally taken from cells and subsequently disappeared. However, there is no evidence of systematic mass killings. In fact, many detainees were eventually released. Some were released after three to six months, others after years of imprisonment or repeated torture, though often only to be detained again.13
Witnesses described various forms of nonphysical mistreatment, including mandatory political indoctrination where detainees were required to sing pro-CCP songs under threat of punishment. Detainees were given unidentified pills or injections, sometimes causing reproductive or psychological changes. Witnesses described unexplained blood draws and medical procedures. Testimonies included coerced abortions with some late terms, and claims of newborns killed after delivery.14
You don’t get to be against one genocide and not another. Stop being a piece of shit shill and do some research.
Braising means two steps though. You brown it first and then simmer in liquid not boil. It’s also usually not water, you’d typically use wine, stock or even beer, but not water. So no, not the same.
Didn’t ask lol
Idk if there’s a less appetizing word that can come before beef than boiled. Or any meat really.
You’re right, I’ll get a degree in pharmacology so that I never make a technical mistake when making a joke ever again. I’ll make sure to also get degrees in every other technical field before speaking in jest in any capacity about any subject.
And you wanna talk about cringey?
$100 doesn’t make it better. $100 to find out, for most people, absolutely nothing of substance, and they PAID to turn over their DNA for free. I thought it was like a $49.99 kinda thing and even then I wouldn’t have done it and didn’t. And if $100 is the basic, it only goes up from there, no?
Sure it’s straight meth, sure it makes me a little jittery and my palms a little sweaty, but that’s how I know it’s working
If you can’t see that’s a joke you’re a lost fucking cause bud, like autistic levels of unable to catch a joke. You’ve got the sense of humor the pharmaceutical knowledge you dropped earlier suggests.
If people on lemmy think I’m a loser I’m doin alright
You’re proving my point dumbass. You copied two comments and pasted them into a word count website to make a point in a meme subreddit
Lemmy is much better than reddit in so many ways but you can’t escape the losers.

If you can’t figure out that’s a joke you’re genuinely a lost cause my guy.
Bro actually counted the words lmfao. Touching grass isn’t enough, you might be a lost cause.
I wasn’t corrected because I made no assertion. I made a joke, but the terminally online are incapable of thought beyond “INACCURATE INFORMATION MUST CORRECT” and it’s fucking sad. It wasn’t a funny joke, I’ll concede that, but I’m not the one worse for wear of this interaction.
Well see, I was doing this thing called a joke that humans do. Sometimes other people laugh, but everyone generally understands that the person making the joke isn’t trying to share specific accurate medical information. You felt the need to correct a joke, which makes you the absolute worst kind of loser.
Maybe you should go to Facebook, that’s the place for people who think other people need to hear what they have to say.
The ego and your lack of awareness of it is sad bud.
Nobody thinks it’s based to not read, because once again, he’s joking. I’m just gonna block you so I can stop listening to your antisocial circling back onto not understanding what a joke is.
