I'm more than a little confused. The information in your link seems to actually agree with chitoryu12's post. Could you explain what exactly you are refuting for us slowpokes in the audience?

Some Māori killed some Moriori. It wasn't an extermination or genocide or anything, and the argument that "the Māori killed all the Moriori who were here first anyway so all the brutality of colonization was totally ok because they deserved it" is an argument pretty much exclusively used by racist pakeha to justify colonialism.

Sorry, you're right, I should have been more clear. The story that Chitoru was repeating is incorrect, and is used by racists in Aotearoa to justify their racism. Didn't mean to imply that Chitoru was being racist, just that the story isn't true, and only stays alive because of its propagation as a racist talking point.

First off, "the Maori killed all the Moriori who were here first anyway so all the brutality of colonization was totally ok because they deserved it" is so far off from the point I was actually making (that it's impossible to have a society in which nobody ever tries to dominate anyone else and the only one I know of got stomped on) that it's not even in the same ballpark. Like this isn't even a conversation about colonization so I don't know why you're trying to bring it up.

Second, just because the Moriori weren't 100% exterminated doesn't mean it suddenly doesn't count as a genocide. The Maori killed over 10% of the entire population just during their conquering and systematically destroyed Moriori culture and ritual sites, with the ones they didn't kill being enslaved and forcibly assimilated into Maori culture. There's not a single Moriori of unmixed ancestry known to exist and only a few thousand people of Moriori descent are alive today. That is absolutely the definition of a genocide and and trying to say it's not is baffling.

They probably think their tweets will flood the #sony tag, because there's so many of them that feel the same way. They always think that. "They can't ignore us if they see how many of us there are!" *Less than 1% of the userbases uncontrollably*

You know, a lot of Jews survived the Holocaust, so I'm not sure it counts as genocide.

Well, all the other people aligning with the alt-right are the weird subhumans who'll be first to be purged once the fascist banners go up, self-preservation instincts don't really apply here.

E: gently caress it other people answered better than my phoneposting. My point is if you're gonna have a snide "heh you fools humans are always violent and the weak will be devoured. I am a JRPG boss." example then make sure it's 100% correct and an actually good, comparable example. Otherwise you're just doing the right wing "socialism?
