  • My understanding is that there’s no way to make anything that’s not a read-only website with it. So Gemini users could have a lemmy proxy to get a read-only view of lemmy, but it would not be possible for a Gemini user to interact with any website without exiting the Gemini client and using another program. This makes the protocol more of a novelty/toy/dead-end to me, but I can imagine some people want to keep it this way.










  • But of course, if you define “genocide” as “thing that I’m willing to politically accept is a genocide”, it’s very easy to pretend someone isn’t a genocide denialist.

    Aren’t you just doing the opposite [insert whatever logical fallacy]? The Holocaust is established historical fact with strong consensus among historians. Most of the other relevant alleged genocides that alleged tankies are allegedly denying have a much different degree of geopolitical contention and consensus.

    What is the purpose of denying the Holocaust? Outside of the middle-east, it’s almost always a white supremacist or antisemitic agenda.

    What is the purpose of denying the Uyghur genocide? There’s no equivalent incentive. Nobody is denying the Uyghur genocide on the basis of race ideology. The narrative of the Uyghur genocide is purely a construct of NATO Imperialist/Colonialist rhetoric to the tankies. They absolutely do not deny the genocide for the purpose of advancing a genocidal agenda.

    Horseshoe theory does not apply.
