The genocide in Gaza has really demolished the narrative about one going on in China. Because we all know what a real genocide looks like now, if the Chinese were doing somethuing similiar they wouldn’t be able to hide it.
I wish this was the case. I just had a coworker bring up the Uyghur “genocide” as evidence about how bad China is last Friday.
Although, there is ample evidence of genocide on both sides. Why does it need to be one team vs the other, vs I don’t know, a general support of rights?
Is your name Adrian Zenz lol
Turkey is in support? Aren’t they the ones that started the Uyghur myth in the first place, along with finding the ETIM?
While ETIM was founded in turkey, the my of the genocide was started by The Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation and the BBC.
It should be well known at this point that Turkey has one of the most two faced governments in the world. They perpetually try and play both sides.
Idk if this is even accurate, it seems more like they pay lip service to the global south, while materially always siding with the global north.
Google “atrocity propaganda” and revise your position of there being “ample evidence of genocide on both sides.” Palestinian genocide is livestreamed every day. Meanwhile, I have not ever, ever heard of “Uighur genocide” from anyone who is more than three steps removed from the CIA.
I thought this was a good video. I’m not sure if it’s a genocide, and I’m sure it’s not on the same scale as Palestine, but I think what’s going on with Uyghurs and other ethnic minorities deserves serious criticism: https://youtu.be/cz9ICFDk8Js
Take this with a grain of salt as I have not done in depth research.
No it is a horrible video. He takes every single western accusation for the truth.
Stop worshipping BE.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
It seems at the very least to be an attempt at erasing an ethnic culture, comparable in some ways to Native American boarding schools in the history of the U.S. and Canada
No there is no such attempt, lol.
Uyghur language is widely teached, is on the currency notes of the PRC, all public signs in Xinjiang are at least in Uyghur and Mandarin, Uyghurs are well represented in the arts, economy, and public life, hell Xinjiang is major tourist destination within China. Before Covid 300 million people visited each year.
The Uyghurs are one of the 56 recognized ands thus constitutionally protected minorities within the PRC. The PRC guarantees them everything the north american natives can only hope for.
I know right? The anti semitism is on the rise, it’s concerning
Zionism is the Typhoid Mary of anti-Semitism.
Yes, and it’s coming from you, because Zionism is antisemitic.
Western coverage of antisemitism is completely unrelated to actual antisemitic incidents.
@SovietReporter @missandry351 In the sense that arabs are also a semitic people yes
Zionism is deeply antisemitic against jewish peoples too; for Zionists the only valid Jew is the fascist one and thereby carries out one of the axioms of western imperialism - the only truly valid “minority” is the fascist one (see for example, the erasure of communist ukrainians for fascist ones, communist Indonesians for fascist ones, and same for other East Europeans, South Americans etc)
