    Undoubtedly good, but the wikipedia article only lists two American genocides against Native Americans (the California genocide and Trail of Tears)?? And accredits the Soviet Union with 4 genocides lmao

        To be fair it was mostly the ethnic deportations (which was obviously bad, but deliberate genocide? Idk) but also the Holodomor lol

          CW: Violence against women, SV

          Eli from Russia visited one of these "ethnic" Oblasts or whatever and she was immediately assaulted (the only time she's ever been assaulted while traveling) by the 'police' no-less, their flag is a 3 headed Swastika and the most "famous" thing about their culture was legally kidnapping women repeatedly "for marriage" until they gave up trying to escape and it was only formally outlawed again in like 2010 or 2015

          After watching that video I immediately understood why the Soviets tried to dilute cultures through mass immigration and deportation into other parts of the USSR, just absolutely satanic levels of fascism and reaction

      the indigenous need a stronger lobby in this system; but i doubt it's possible since the americans & canadians have set themselves apart from the rest of the peoples in all the americas.

    It’s good that Wikipedia is doing the right thing here, after exhausting all other options.

    Unfortunate that some of the comments on this article are denying the holocaust though. Don’t know if they are genuine people or feds or what.

    the isrealis are like republicans and will make at effort at retribution since this directly contradicts their hasbara policy; i hope that wikipedia is better able to weather it than the icc and tiktok are.

    Does anyone have a link to the discussion actual? I found this, but it doesn't seem like an in-depth discussion...
