The magazine also said in its mail that while the organisation encourages free expression and constructive political debate, it has a zero tolerance policy towards hate speech.
“Evil wins when good men do nothing” or is that notbhow the saying goes?
I am not arguing semantics, it’s just my view that the lack of sanctions by the west for China for commiting genocide is about as good as sanctioning it.
I don’t think that’s a far fetched view, I think you are the one arguing semantics, or the exact meaning of words rather than realizing the lack of action against evil is about as good as an endorsement of it.
It’s a sad commentary on the state of education nowadays that I also initially assumed that you were dumb enough to not know the difference between “sanctioned genocide” and “applying sanctions”

The word sanction is an antonym of itself. You’re disingenuously arguing semantics.
Sanction: noun Authoritative permission or approval that makes a course of action valid.
Sanction: noun The penalty for noncompliance with a law or legal order.
When people use the term “sanctioned genocide,” they are almost assuredly using the first definition.
The Uyghur Genocide is not sanctioned by the west because, unlike Gaza and Yemen, this genocide doesn’t have the support of most western governments.
The lack of economic sanctions against China does not make the Uyghur genocide a sanctioned one. Despite using the same word.
