Flippant Anarchism. A lighter take on social criticism with the aim of agitation.
Post humorous takes on capitalism and the states which prop it up. Memes, shitposting, screenshots of humorous good takes, discussions making fun of some reactionary online, it all works.
This community is anarchist-flavored. Reactionary takes won't be tolerated.

Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.
-
Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.
-
No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

This is an anarchist comm. You don't have to be an anarchist to post, but you should at least understand what anarchism actually is. We're not here to educate you.
-
No shaming people for being anti-electoralism. This should be obvious from the above point but apparently we need to make it obvious to the turbolibs who can't control themselves. You have the rest of lemmy to moralize.

I can't help noticing a complete absence of supporting sources for any of your claims. You have a lot to say about evidence but none to show. The US made similar claims about satelite images regarding WMDs in Iraq, those were also lies. The UN has sent teams to investigate in person repeatedly over the course of several years and found no evidence to substantiate US accusations. Your many negative and entirely unverifiable assertions about the thoughts and motives of the leaders of countries the US just happens to be hostile towards is a pretty clear indication that you're emotionally invested in our propaganda. You need to take a step back from your feelings and think critically about the difference between what you've actually seen and what you've been told that you've seen.
I don’t need a citation to demonstrate that statements from politicians are not evidence of anything—which wasn’t even relevant to the claim that the UN has rejected the claims regarding atrocities inflicted on the Uighurs, which you also never substantiated. By the way, here’s an actual UN report alleging serious human rights abuses: https://news.un.org/en/story/2022/08/1125932
This is an anarchist community. My disdain for politicians is not specific to the US’s adversaries. They always pursue their own interests. To understand their behavior, you need to understand their incentives, which I explained above.
But if there’s a specific claim you want a source for, let me know. None of it is particularly controversial.
"Alleging serious human rights violations" is not proof of a genocide, it's not even proof of the alleged human rights violations in question. If they had proof of anything close to a genocide they'd be alleging genocide, and if they had evidence they'd be presenting it. Accept the fact that you're not immune to propaganda and admit you've got nothing.
