What definition of genocide are you using?

The one where the purpose is to kill all the people of a race, not the one where some die as collateral damage while trying to destroy terrorists

How about you?

Mods allow people to say genocide joe when no genocide is occurring though

That’s not the definition of genocide though. That’s the definition of extermination

Did you know that? Do I need to post the different definitions?


Oh good, this chat again.


Genocide is the intentional destruction of a people in whole or in part. In 1948, the United Nations Genocide Convention defined genocide as any of five "acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group".

For the umpteenth time, there is no intent to destroy in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group

I'm no fan of Joe Biden but "Genocide Joe" us a disgusting misnomer


Please take the I/P debates back to that thread where they belong


This is a word debate, just happen to be using Israel /palestine as an example.

Mets keeps changing the definitions of words and then lying about it.
Certainly that’s bad faith posting

Damn I was sure the Jews genocide by nazis was trying to exterminate Jews .
Boy was I wrong ….


Genocide can be extermination
Extermination is always genocide

Genocide is not always extermination

The Nazis did a genocide during their extermination

The IDF is doing a genocide but they are not doing an extermination (afaik)

This is similar to how a square is a rectangle , yet a rectangle is not a square


Lol PW. Is trolling about what words are OK to use and when a hobby of yours or something?

PW on why you shouldn't use the term "Native American":

by PointlessWords m

Its not. Aztecs are not native americans. Now you know that aztecs dont like to be referred to as that way. You can no longer say that in your experience it is a fine term to use. Now you know that if you say that again, you will be lying, as it is not a fine term to use.

Are you ok with lying to yourself?

Personal attack. I posted the actual UNITED NATIONS definition

This **** gets deep.

Spoiler

And wrong. I think you mean "all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares". A rectangle can be a square.


PW is doing a complicated bit where he's a caricature of a left-wing scold. It's not super funny, but he's too deep into the bit to stop now.

This is you justifying your name .

The only distinction u can possibly make is genocide is targeting a specific group while extermination target everything/everyone .

But the end game is the same .


Regardless of whether or not Aztecs like being called native Americans, they still are native Americans.

You should do the same exercise with our dearly departed lagtight.

Free Lagtight please.

Not a personal attack. You have been told many times that killing/exterminating all Palestinians is genocide.

You posted that it’s not genocide cause they weren’t killing all of the people.

You know that isn’t the definition

Then when asked to post the definition, you changed it and left out the all part.

You’re changing things around. I’m not attacking you

At first you said all people. Then you changed it.

Evidence is in post above, last quoted words

Because a Native American person corrected me in between that period of time

Also because I make mistakes

Oh dear, seems you forgot your own lies.

by PointlessWords m

because I dont care enough to use the other terms, I feel like it sounds cringe when I say it as if I am wanting extra attention. This is because of people like you that think native american is proper and its also because of people like me that should speak up more. I should fix that.


Bro giving my opinion isn’t a lie and no I don’t remember my old opinions.


Lol what opinion? You've simply given two conflicting reasons because you forgot what reason you gave last time.

Dude, you're a terrible troll. You bring the rest of us into disrepute.


I’m not trolling so whatever is going on in your head that makes you think that, is in your head

Different legend. I'm taking about bouton. Looks like his ban has run.

I thought he was permanently banned this time. He should have been.

The Nazis didn't kill all the jews, so I guess it wasn't extermination.
