Maybe I’m unfamiliar with the distribution of emergency aid, but never in my life have I seen goods so vaguely labelled. It appears they’ve slapped that label on every side and made no attempt to catalogue what might be inside

One of my favourite Maos. It gives you that a good thermometer for how effective an anti-capitalist movement is. Just check how much capitalist feathers are being ruffled.

Jokes aside it’s a good conversation. It is a vague term and continues to be the world’s most popular word for the greatest crime imaginable. What I find interesting is that mass killing of people of a particular political ideology still falls out of the bounds of the ever growing definition of genocide.100,000 communists in South Korea are systematically killed and it doesn’t capture the imagination quite the same if it can’t be called genocide.

I’m not arguing that genocide should be a more vague term. I feel like a need a word for mass killing of largely unarmed demographics that is more flexible.

I don’t mind defining all war as genocide. USA gets to be the world’s most genocidal nation either way.
