    No, it isnt. We have geographic evidence as well as countless testimonies of the Uyghur people.

    For some reason when it comes to China/Uyghur muslims, people have no issue dismissing their genocide and thinking it’s okay.

      I was in Urumqi recently enough and I can tell you this they are some of the most pro government people I have ever talked with lmao they love that ETIM was kicked out.

      You have gusano testimony from the likes of Rushan Abbas (Guantanamo bay torturer) It’s not real.

      Also tell me about this geographic evidence? Pictures of prisons that you decided are camps because we’re evil scary Chinese people?

        I never said “you’re evil scary Chinese people”. The Chinese state however, is another story (authoritarian— but I know you’re apathetic towards authoritarianism). I realize now that this may be evoking some sort of nationalistic reaction out of you, though.

        I didn’t “decide”— like I said, independent journalists and satellite imaging. And no, it’s not reducible to “Western evil scary propaganda” like you’re making it out to be.

          The Chinese state that has 95+% support from the population and is made up of a representative of Chinese people.

          White people decided we’re evil and you just go along with it without any investigation because you’re racist and it confirms your biases

            Ah yes because government-manufactured numbers hold value— you must think Russia is a democracy too, no?

            Oh, and now I’m racist. Great. Critiquing a state means I’m racist. Logical.

            I have nothing against Chinese people. If you’re defending things like suppression, I don’t care what colour you are, I don’t like that.

              Strawman. Also more racism.

              You are a racist.

                You got caught with a good analogy and you’re defaulting to claiming I’m a racist randomly to hide behind.
