Hyperbole won't get you anywhere

2020-02-04 15:19:00 UTC  

@Skellington Well, it is if we are using the UN definition of the word of counting ethnic replacement as genocide.

2020-02-04 15:19:21 UTC  

hmmm

2020-02-04 15:49:32 UTC  

@Skellington To be clear, I agree with you that the word "genocide" is hyperbolic but this is what they said about the Ameridians from both North and South America but at the same time, don't care about Turkey denying the Armenian and Greek genocide.

@Skellington So genocide doesn't have to be about killing, it can be about Replacing a population.

2020-02-05 17:48:31 UTC  

Under the UN definition (as gay as the UN is) the replacement is considered a genocide.

2020-02-05 17:49:40 UTC  

If you don't want to use some other term "extinction" I think is appropriate substitute.

2020-02-08 16:18:35 UTC  

Using the word genocide is hyperbolic and UN definition semantics aren't rhetorically convincing. I even struggle with "Replacement" even though it's a better descriptor.

2020-02-08 16:19:48 UTC  

Dispossession is the word I would use

2020-02-08 16:20:11 UTC  

When you evoke the word genocide, everyone has a mental image of what that looks like. That image doesn't match isn't happening in the West so it's easy to dismiss the speaker.

2020-02-08 16:21:30 UTC  

Replacement evokes imagery as well that actually kind of works. It passes the emotional and ethical argument check quite well.

2020-02-08 16:23:48 UTC  

'Replacement' gets a little harder to argue around the logical argumentation because on the micro level, nobody is being literally replaced. Everyone is still here, minus those murdered by our new neighbors. Of course on the macro level, a population is being replaced. But then again, white people don't exist, race is a social construct, and it all doesn't matter anyway bigot.

2020-02-08 16:27:01 UTC  

@Zemo 'Dispossession' and 'Reciprocation' are much easier to work with. I don't know if either of them pack quite the emotional punch that genocide or replacement have. So you're playing for less stakes basing an appeal on either of those.

I went a little insane making this

2020-02-16 04:30:08 UTC  

Is it just me or do these longer videos do better than the shorter ones?

2020-02-16 04:48:29 UTC  

I guess the algorithm likes it

2020-02-16 23:45:51 UTC
