    It also conflicts with the findings of the UN human rights office.

    So do claims of genocide, but you'll make those anyway.

      It says it "may constitute international crimes, in particular crimes against humanity."

      At least it's not genocide? Lol

        "May" being the operative word.

        Though yes, crimes against humanity is very difference to genocide, which is the reason the west has been so desperate to frame it as a genocide; because western countries commit crimes against humanity on a daily basis, to the point that their population don't even flinch at it any more. Thus, a more extreme accusation is needed.

          Those were a lot of words to not say "crimes against humanity are bad."

          I'm not saying I want you to admit it is happening, I guess I'm just saying it would be cool if you could see that it is a bit sus that only the countries benefitting from direct Chinese investment are saying there is nothing wrong, while other international investigations are being blocked.

          If there is nothing wrong happening, and everyone is happy to be there, why can't journalists do real investigations on it and clear the air?

            Oh, so we're just straight up putting words in each others' mouths then. OK

            That's a lot of words to say "I'm a stupid moron with an ugly face and a big butt and my butt smells and I like to kiss my own butt"
