    There’s no assumption. They literally listed two purity tests that they themselves use, directly after saying that they never see anyone use purity tests

      Their purity test: You must not deny genocide.

      What you heard their purity test was: They must accept that any and all genocides that I think exist are real and a big problem.

      Again, you fucking morons are inferring things that aren’t there just to try and be witty, while utterly missing the point…

      Congratulations on failing your reading comprehension test.

        You’ve got a bunch of nutjobs that will turn that phrasing into a white genocide conversation is the problem.

        The second part of that is that genocide is a subjective term due to classification of ethnic groups being subjective.

        Honestly this well encapsulates the problem I tend to have aligning on goals with other progressives and some liberals. Every time folks try to simplify something as complex as genocide down to a yes or no question it means they are already invalidating the majority of positions and forcing a conversation of agree with me or call me wrong. That isn’t how it works, that isn’t how discussion and debate work. Forcing people into Yes/No thinking doesn’t lead to progress, asking for people to think critically does.
