I’ve seen his modlog so I know he’s been banned here twice in the past year, both times being due to genocide denial (I’m wondering if this is about the Uyghur?).
I wonder what everyone’s experiences of conversing w him has been.
I definitely think he at the very least has a wholly uncritical acceptance of China and I directly probed him on that and he essentially did admit to being open to accept it and not criticize the nation because he wasn’t part of it (which is just a biased outlook— and mentioning that made him strawman by saying “everyone’s biased” when this is a clear thing one can control).
Yeah, that’s what I thought.
When I said “there’s lots of independent evidence from victims” he related it to how that’s also the case for the “white genocide” spiel (which both of us thought to be false) and then went on to say I was therefore engaging in “genocide denialism” the same I thought of him.
Apart from this there was something about it being a “re-education center” to “crackdown on crime” and that it “reduced crime rates”, but I’m not too keen on that because it sounds like segragation.
