China is directly fuelling genocide, both at home amongst the Uyghurs, and in Ukraine by arming Russia.

Please, be more accurate with your statements. China is committing genocide at home (which is terrible) and supplying components, which applications include i.e. war drones for Ukraine war, in other words fuelling the war.

On the other hand the west is supplying plain ready to use weapons, ammunition and war vehicle parts. Not only that, but also the crucial military intel necessary to hit the targets.

Although one can argue the outcome will be the same, results show a much higher civilian casualty percentage of 83% in the Gaza war.

There is a substantial difference in the battlefield between fuelling, arming and committing.

What the ever-loving fuck do you think drones are

Not only that, but also the crucial military intel necessary to hit the targets.

And you think Chinese intelligence isn't involved in the war in Ukraine? Both espionage and cyberattacks from suspected PRC actors are on the fucking record, and it's not like Chinese state media is going to be doing any exposes before the CPC wants to admit it.

Yes, because Palestine's military (or paramilitaries) is no longer in any state to resist.

Oh goodness, it would be really terrible if China was supplying capital, arms, and personnel.

Is it necessary to rage like an agressive drunk psyco? I do appreciate the links to the sources, but behave like a civilized being.

If there's one thing I've learned over two decades of arguing with people over matters like disinformation and genocide, it's that gentle phrasing leads people to walk away with "Ah, a nice little political disagreement! Agree to disagree!"

Spreading disinformation is not something that is minor, and it should not be treated as such. Even if done without malice - and I don't think you're doing it maliciously - treating it as a 'mere' disagreement encourages people to continue repeating it. Treating is as a serious offense - which it is - forces either defense of the disinformation or discarding spreading it.
