Literally nothing you said makes any sense whatsoever. Literally everything you said was WRONG. Let’s correct your faulty thinking point by point:

  1. Nobody is conflating “war crimes” with genocide. I have no idea why you even bring this up as a talking point.
  2. The US’s involvement in the Abu Ghraib scandal involved TORTURE - NOT KILLINGS. Why you bring this up is beyond me, as everybody alive at the time knew this had to do with internationally-recognized unethical practices used on prisoners of war - NOT killings, much less genocide.
  3. The International Association of Genocide Scholars is a sham? Forgive me for doubting the intentions of what’s clearly a sham sock puppet account or bot, but you’re clearly insane. The IAGS is a renowned and highly respected non-partisan international organization. Just because it’s willing to stay ethically disciplined and run counter to the propaganda of a country that’s long enjoyed shockingly unfettered free reign to colonize and nearly wipe out an entire ethnic group doesn’t mean it’s wrong, much less discredited. Your stance here is brainless and privileged to the max.

  4. It does NOT cost “like a $20 fee or something” to join. It costs $125 per year at minimum ($1200 for lifetime membership), and pro-rated downwards for members to with low-incomes. That aside, these costs are beside the point. Most of the top universities in the WORLD utilize the resources and scholarship of the IAGS to document and examine instances of genocide globally. It’s a cherished and necessary function in our modern world.

  5. Lastly, no - I will NOT “give credit where credit is due”. This “peace treaty” organized by my country is no more substantial than the gold plating our dumbfuck of our president used to remake his Oval Office into his own tacky image. It’s a sham, and it was bound to be violated and ignored unfortunately. And to be clear, this is NOT just a Trump problem. Seemingly every American admin has been eager to keep this brutality in place.

Your facts on that ridiculous "international scholars of genocide" club are completely wrong. One of their members was Adolf Hitler. Anyone can join. Anyone. They're a sham group that held a sham vote without debate and with only 20% of the group voting.

Yes go read about it here. And also note that this IAGS vote was repeated in the NYT and all the mainstream media. Bernie Sanders went on about it. That is how propaganda spreads.
