I’ve read my Asmiov. “Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.”
But we’re complex emotional beings and sometimes our amygdala lurches up from the warm fetid swamp it usually lazes around in and utters things we act on before slower, more complex neurological bureaucracy can veto. Actual nazis will do that to the most disciplined of us.
Quibble all you want about whether it is a genocide or not, but the abuse of Uyghurs by the Chinese government is in no way a hoax. It is institutionalized oppression of the highest order.
Re-read that article then. No one is making claims of deaths. Even the west has softened it to “abuses.” What deaths is your article claiming?
And those “abuses” were putting them in detention while they were de-radicalized, and your article acknowledges that they’ve now been dismantled, because again they were largely successful.
The AP has a long history of manufacturing consent in coordination with western propagandists. They’re helping sell the Israeli genocide as we speak.
Reread the definition of genocide because it isn’t restricted to deaths. Forcibly sterilizing people and destruction of culture are also included in genocide. That being said, deaths have occurred in the camps through malnutrition, unsanitary conditions, withheld medical care, and violence (beatings).
The facts are that China imprisoned more than a million people from a specific ethnic group in concentration camps without due process. Treatment in these camps included forced labor, family separation, and indoctrination. There are multiple reports of forced abortions, forced sterilization, forced birth control, rape, and torture.
The UN did not accuse China. Michelle Bachelet did. This is a common problem with these UN human rights abuse claims, where a single political appointee makes a claim, and the propagandists spread it as having full UN backing. They did the same thing to spread the sexual violence hoax for the Israeli Oct 7th propaganda. It’s not even the first time they’ve done this with the Uyghurs:
I’m not saying to trust China. I’m saying to trust the trusted third parties who have investigated it. Really were so far past the hoax at this point, you can even trust the state propagandists who’ve already admitted they didn’t have the evidence they claimed.
Right now, you’re trusting decade old claims from intelligence agencies, who aren’t even still pushing those narratives you’re clinging to, and who were exposed as radicalizing the Uyghurs to destabilize the region (as they’ve done countless other times this past century).
To everyone here that feels Nazis deserve free speech and sympathy.
They do not.
Handling Nazi with kid gloves is how we got here.
Handling Nazis with im kid gloves is how the Holocaust happened.
History is literally repeating itself and anyone sympathetic with Nazis is complicit.
Edit: Most of us know someone who’s grandparents died fighting Nazis. Ignoring and empathizing with Nazi’s is spitting on their graves.
I don’t know bout y’all but the ONLY gloves you should use when handling Nazis is the kind with spikes protruding from the business end.
OK but first make sure they’re an actual Nazi and not one of that “someone who disagrees with me” kind of almost certainly not a Nazi.
For sure.

Maybe the thick yellow rubber ones if you need to mop up after a body
Gross yellow gloves are for household cleaning. Blue gloves are for disposing of bodies, it’s like the colour coded chopping blocks in kitchens
I’d suggest the black nitrile to be less conspicuous, and get the thick ones in case it snags on a dumpster or something.
The orange ones have grip added for when things get slick.
In a truly tolerant society, only one thing should not be tolerated.
Intolerance.
Looks like the mods in here really don’t want y’all to know that the Uyghur “genocide” was a western hoax.

Do you have a reputable source? A US government agency’s info is as reputable as Israel’s info on Gaza. They’re the main ones crafting the bullshit.

AP has been selling the genocide in Gaza for Israel, and is not credible. Your second link is backing up my version.
‘“The genocide is still happening but it is just much more covert now,” Turdush said.’
That is a direct quote from the article you say backs up your version, so I’m glad you agree with me that China is committing genocide.
Also, the AP is the most reliable news source on the planet.

Treatment in these camps included forced labor, family separation, and indoctrination. There are multiple reports of forced abortions, forced sterilization, forced birth control, rape, and torture.
As a result of family separation and forced birth control, the birth rate of Uyghur areas of China fell 60%.
Claiming the AP is selling Israeli genocide is a blatant lie.

Are we considering the UN’s report definitive then? Or did you just cherry-pick a paywalled article based on the title?
China responsible for ‘serious human rights violations’ in Xinjiang province: UN human rights report
The UN did not accuse China. Michelle Bachelet did. This is a common problem with these UN human rights abuse claims, where a single political appointee makes a claim, and the propagandists spread it as having full UN backing. They did the same thing to spread the sexual violence hoax for the Israeli Oct 7th propaganda. It’s not even the first time they’ve done this with the Uyghurs:
https://thegrayzone.com/2018/08/23/un-did-not-report-china-internment-camps-uighur-muslims/amp/
I tried to un-paywall the article you linked, and it brought up the UN report. It’s possible it was the wrong article.
Do you have an un-paywalled link? Or do I just trust it without reading it?
Why should you trust Chinese sources to tell you about a genocide in China? That’d be like trusting CNN to tell you billionaires are evil.
It’s not paywalled for me, but a lot of it is just repeating grayzone reporting.

China did what? From everything I’ve seen and read, de-radicalization is a pretty generous way of putting it but feel free to educate me.
