a while ago i was in an argument with an anarchist about china and they hit me with the uyghur genocide argument so i sent them the article with the CIA guy openly admitting its a fabrication and they just didnt reply so im genuinely trying to wrap my mind around it. are they just in straight up denial and ignore it when people bring it up?

OR, the more horrifying alternative, are there some who just fw with the CIA for stopping ”red fascism”?? i know some people honestly believe communists should support ukraine due to ”morals” so maybe its possible?

I don't think this comparison is fair or honest. Never once seen an anarchist call the Gaza Genocide anything other than what it is.

Liberals are the ones always hand-wringing about how "complicated" Palestine is.

I've seen some brainrot anarchists on twitter but I'll take it with a grain of salt because it's twitter

I mean I just got back on BlueSky a few days ago (their ban evasion methods suck apparently lmao) and deadass I just saw a guy (calls himself a demsoc, sympathetic to anarchism) confidently try to argue that Marx wasn't anti-capitalist.

Social media has a way of bringing out the most bewildering takes from the most ignorant people on planet Earth.
