You have provided a lot of statements with absolutely no sources to back up any of it. Why should anyone trust you over sources that can be looked up?
I understand there is a lot of propaganda, but you have to understand that you are not immune to propaganda either. How can you be sure the things you read aren’t just propaganda too?
Without sources, we can’t read and judge for ourselves. I hope you value critical thinking over groupthink.
I realise not a lot of people will read this far down without downvoting and moving on, because I’m challenging the narrative I must be the enemy and a Leftist In Name Only. I want to make it absolutely clear that I’m not making any judgements about whether China is “worse” than the US or anything of the sort.
Such a comparison is wrong because they’re independent events. Just because the US’ list of human rights abuses is long, doesn’t mean it’s okay for China to add to their list.
It’s also not necessary to defend China, because even if everything we can read about the Uyghurs is true, that doesn’t change the fact that there are benefits to the Chinese way of running their country (100 year plan vs “until next election” 4 year plan, to name one) that we can strive towards.
Let’s be honest; if we as leftists got a magic wand that could change the world, we wouldn’t (shouldn’t) use any country currently in existence as the perfect template, because no country and no current political system is perfect.
Specifically Adrian Zens is born again Christian “on a mission from god to destroy China” because his sect got banned there. His genocide evidence is an interview of 8 Uyghurs and extrapolating to millions. Neither an unbiased nor good source…
So there is no forced arrest and re-education to “convert” them?

And there is no forced sterilisation either?

Your sources both cite Zenz lmao
I don’t know what that means, sorry.
So you didn’t even read my comment before replying with all that garbage?? Lol
Fucking incredible. Just straight up admitting you don’t even bother to read the propaganda you gulp down
Then you have a surface level understanding on the topic and should read up on it before speaking up
I’ll give you a good starting point: https://www.qiaocollective.com/education/xinjiang
