Why make two threads?

Because each time something new and horrific was said? The two threads weren't made at the same time, and I wasn't aware that Unruffled was going to skip from 'defending Uyghur genocide denial' to 'being an Uyghur genocide denier' when I made the first one.

I don’t think what he is saying is right but he does clarify his position right after.

By 'clarify' you mean 'directly contradict'?

If someone dismisses genocide, then, after being called out on it, half-assedly walks it back, which is the sincere position?

Fair enough but personally, I do think you should let things settle a bit before making threads on them. When I commented, I was under the impression you reposted because the other one got downvoted.

I agree on your impression of the whole of it though. Not sure why he had to put quotes around the word genocide for instance.
