Cheering on the genocide committed against ukraine for example

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 32 points 1 year ago

Misuse of the term genocide is considered soft-holocaust denial.

Literally no such thing. The Holodomor is a fiction created by Nazi propagandists to paint the failures of Soviet agricultural policy in dealing with a famine as a deliberate attempt to exterminate Ukranians.

Important to note, this was merely the latest in a long series of famines which had historically plagued this part of eastern Europe. It was also the last.

Per Wikipedia:

Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation and race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.

I don't know why you went with something that individual internet neckbeards do.

You're the one doing holocaust denial by crying crocodile tears over nazis

not a genocide by any reasonable definition of genocide, and calling non-genocide things "genocide" dilutes the term in a way that is beneficial to nazis.

none of us cheer the invasion, we shit on boris johnson for sabotaging peace talks you dolt.
