Name 5 Chinese war crimes,I'll wait π
#4 is like claiming the Union committed genocide against enslaved people in the Confederacy by abolishing slavery
Please elaborate
Please list sources for any of these. Preferably not from US or british state media.
Which country do you accept?
The US is currently in a trade war with China, and Britain is still salty about their loss of their hong kong in 1997. So it's best to get a source from a neutral country, rather than one of their current enemies.
For example, let's look at what the middle east (a region the US and Britain have also looted, colonized, and bombed for decades) has to say:
"Provide sources. No not those sources!" -you
If your sources quote "anonymous sources" and nebulous "state documents" without providing access to them, those are shit sources. I wouldn't trust them even if I didn't know their track record of making shit up as long as their CIA ~~handler~~ contact "confirms" the story.
I mean how about this, you CAN use those sources, however I will not treat them as a sacred cow and given there track record when dealing with places the US does not like it will take me almost no time to debunk the claim, or point out how the source is not credible on this topic, then you will wace your hands and scream about some liberal media reliability rateing that cannot even get left right and center correct, even in the US overton window, an then I will have to debunk the new media reliability AND remind you of the previous debunk.
OR we can skip some of the easier ones to debunk and try to have an easier time in trying to understand reality, rather than just screaming and letting rich ghools make it up for us. The choice is yours
Here's 5 actual war crimes
yes we are now doing exactly what the meme at the top of the page is doing.
fyi: two spaces at the end of a line will format that correctly as a newline
Β
That is true lmao, though I do believe in nuance, it's definitely not s black and white or a both sides equally bad sort of mindset
Also thank you, I was having issues with the text on the phone, question, how do I just take a break without a whole space between? If that makes sense
Two spaces at the end of a line
Makes a new line
What do you chuds not understand about "two countries are committing war crimes"? You asked about China and got an answer about China. You're trying to convince us who's the second worst empire.
I think you're missing the WAR part of the WAR CRIME. I thought you'd realise by now, but you're really digging yourself a hole. Funny thing is there are wars you could have mentioned and war crimes. The point of original comment was to draw our those without any knowledge like you π
I'm explaining to you why this comparison is a poor argument, not volunteering to dance around various different arguments all day.
Edit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motte-and-bailey_fallacy
1 isn't a war crimes lmao 2 isn't a war crime 3. Isn't a war crime nor is there proof. Literal unbacked western propaganda, wanna know what is backed? Gaza, By the west and Sudan genocide by America via UAE RIGHT NOW, you can literally watch it unfold on all social media 4. Perhaps, I would need to do more research on this one, but didn't you got 3 wrong, I wouldn't be surprised if your wrong again. 5. Not a war crime
Edit: no idea how to do formatting on the phone, I apologise
Crimes against humanity are war crimes. Looting is a war crime. Invasion of a sovereign nation is an act of war. Stealing their resources is looting. Genocide is a crime against humanity and Tibet and the Uyghers are in one.
Wolf warriors that bury their head in the sand will suffocate under the lies.
China has been real bad.
Crimes against humanity aren't war crimes. You're reading comprehension is lacking my friend. The war in war crimes means warfare.
Speaking of genocides. You have mentioned two. Most genocides on the planet are actively done by America and it's allies or it supplies the weapons and silences the media.
Considering China having 5 times the population of america. Id say china has been very good comparatively on the world. Also nothing to say how 4 of 5 of your war crimes weren't at all war crimes??
Yes they are. Source: The International Criminal Court (ICC) | International peace and security | Government.nl https://search.app/iKiJrEFeMYP2nzF76
Ethnic cleansing is a crime against humanity, which is a war crime.
"War crimes, unlike crimes against humanity, are always committed in times of war." Did you at all read your own link? This is literally from the webpage Everything you said could be a war crime if one specific and incredibly obvious thing happens. It's during a war. Else it's a crime against humanity, which isn't a war crime. You literally linked the article and your still struggling with this??
