⚠️Disclaimer! I am not a denier or even questioner of any genocides I’m aware of!⚠️ I swear to fuck I am genuinely asking this question because I don’t know the answer, and using a search engine for something like this is only going to yield crackpot denier misinformation.

I have used the argument in the past, “If given all available evidence you’re still not sure a genocide is happening, you can probably safely assume that it is, because humans just constantly do genocide.”

And I wanted to be prepared in case whoever I’m debating says something like “well in 19XX, group A accused group B of genocide and it turns out group A was just lying to make group B look bad!”

Basically, would they be full of shit, or have humans been proven to have sunk that low too? :/

    To be fair, they don’t usually explicitly call it a “genocide”, they just dance around the term. Probably because they know they’re full of shit.

      Nah they just stopped calling it that, the motto used to be “diversity is a codeword for white genocide” in the 00s.
