If you think the only reason I'm pissed about the armenian genocide is because of your usual transparent double standards, you're even dumber than I thought. I've written and raged at length about the armenian genocide and turkish propaganda before, on these very forums even! I've also done the same about ww2 actions of Japan against the chinese. Hmmmm, what do these two things have in common? It's almost as if there is some connecting thread linking these two historical events, despite being separated by decades and half a world. It's almost as if I had some strong moral convinctions regarding historical massacre of people based on purely ethnic/cultural/racial characteristics, and the complete abdication of collective guilt or even responsability when it is clearly due. But no, that makes no sense. As a modern westerner, any claim of moral indignation towards a non-western country I may have is obviously based on the latest outrage du jour spoonfed to me by my corporate masters, in order to make me feel "cool" and "hip" and "morally superior". And that's generously accepting your assumptions, which you could have no fucking idea about. Do you understand that there was a very large diaspora of armenian descendents to Europe and America, largely integrated and no longer culturally linked to their old language perhaps, but still descendents? Do you ever reread the shit you write, and maybe feel just an inkling of shame for how fucking stupid it is?
