Nothing better than being told China is murdering millions of Muslims in the Lockheed Martin - Raytheon Martin - Northrop Grumman “Kill the Browns” Lecture Hall

But back to your example, this would be like the prof saying that recycling is banned in China. It’s not just an odious display of horrific politics, it’s an obvious lie that even NATOpedia debunks.

After the Revolution these people should be awarded an anti-PhD that bars them from ever coming within a 10 mile radius of any educational institution.

I just don’t feel right not doing anything about someone laundering lies of literal terrorists. I want to leave at least some impact beyond whining about them on RMP - anonymously if possible. Zionist students have free reign to terrorize and assault Arab students and hold genocidal hate rallies with one Zionist fuck holding a “kill them all” sign with zero consequences while the admin sends out emails fearmongering about antisemitism. Oh and also some creepy old Zionist showed up to threaten to rape and murder Arab students. So publicly opposing the western narrative is inviting death threats and physical attacks.

are just looking for their own ideas and perspectives to be parroted back to them

Yeah I’ve played that game plenty of times. The thing is, it’s usually just about their dumbass pet theory about how the Qin emperor was an ancient Nietzschean and not fabricating basic facts.

Surely this warrants the chair telling them to maybe skim the google search results before lecturing others. Just kidding, I know they won’t do anything about it.

 

Among the usual claims about a trillion Uyghurs being murdered in concentration camps and the women being sterilized, the “professor” also claimed that Uyghurs weren’t recognized as one of China’s 55 ethnic minorities (they are) and that Islam is banned in China (it’s not) They didn’t provide any sources too lmao

Yes, they’re a white liberal

No, there wasn’t a single mention of Palestine

How do you become a Professor when you can’t even be bothered to google what the fuck you’re talking about? Does saying “China bad” give you a PhD now? The level of academic dishonesty is staggering, aren’t universities supposed to take this stuff seriously? Surely there must be a way to report professors spreading racist conspiracy theories as fact. It’s not just a political thing, the intellectual laziness is so extreme they cannot even get the most basic background facts right. At this point I would be surprised if they know which continent China is in.

But hey, at least they got to trivialize actual genocides by putting them next to the Uyghur “genocide”

If I pulled any of this shit in a paper - no sources, lies debunked in two seconds - I would at a minimum instantly fail the class and probably face a serious risk of being suspended and/or expelled for academic fraud.
