    Theres literally not a single video showing this sort of systemic racist and ethno nationalist state violence thats happening against Palestinians happening to Uyghurs in Xinjiang. How do people not question that? Like these Uyghur activists are going before congress and saying shit like "no other country in the world treats Muslims as bad as China does" like wtf??

        :geordi-no: :same-picture:

        :geordi-yes: ackhtually the israelis have a right to exist, that palestinian child was a terrorist, and the hospitals house weapons but the sneaky terrorbabies take them away, to someplace else thats way more secure for holding their antisemetic weapons, right before they get attacked defended against by the israeli defense force with a defensive missile bombardment. those poor uighurs are the real genocide victims, just like the holocaust!

        :centrist:

      I was checking out a thread on worldnews and it was of people pointing out the hypocrisy of the US' position on Palestine. Unfortunately, instead of suspecting the entire narrative, they went on to still assume the narrative was true and just saying,"Both are irredeemable acts of destruction and harm, yet one is supported, while the other called genocide."

      :cringe:

      VoC casts the blame on Stalin for the civilian casualties off the eastern front.

      Libs don't question it one bit.

      Nah, some liberals have already exaggerated the "demographic genocide" narrative into holocaust 2.0. Some of them are even more deluded than Zenz and actually believe there are mass killings going on.

        I literally had someone accuse me of genocide denial when I called bullshit on their 12 million dead Uyghurs statistic lol

        I don't know if they were trying to invoke Holocaust numbers as some kind of symbolism thing. It was weird af.

          It's a symbolism thing meant to manufacture consent. The thought process is: If PRC are like the Nazis, then we should invade and destroy them and it would be righteous.

          Why would you find it weird? As soon as the 'G' word popped up, I knew shit like this would be an inevitability.

    Its simple really.

    If the greatest economic ,geopolitical and ideological rival wolrd power of modern US was commiting anything at even a hundredth of the scale and severity of what is Israel does (let alone whats propagated in western media about Xinjiang )IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BIRTH OF A NEW COLD WAR the CIA + state department would have terrabytes of actual photoes, videos, leaks and evidence that they could use to manufacture consent against China.

    But the best they can do is satelite pictures of some buildings, Znez/falun gong/RFA "reporting" and anonymous first hand accounts. Meanwhile we have 4k ultra HD pics and videos and evidence of war crimes and genocide against Palestinians perpetrated by the friendliest protectorat of the US coming out every other week. And thats despite the fact that both it and the US spend billions every year to supress evidence and narratives against Israel on the internet and public.

    If that doesnt convince you of some stuff regarding the Chinese Xinjiang situation, nothing will

        The opposide, we should be talking and bringing up that huge contradiction that i described. Its extremely good to convince socdem/libsocs of how much the situation is overblown and to plant the seed in their heads

    On a side note, Reddit is actually having a descent amount of pro Palestinian comments in my experience that I'm actually wondering if all this anti China pro Uyghur content made reddit like Muslims now?

      Reddit loves Muslims now unless you’re talking about the entire Muslim world supporting China’s efforts in xinjiang. If you so much as bring that up they think it’s a giant global plot to make China look good and get good business deals

        muslim countries that have literall bases US army bases and have imf and neo-colonial chains around their economy and government siding with China over the US on the issue means that China somehow magicaly has more power and influence over them

        It's surreal. I remember the night of those Paris shootings and Charlie Hebdo. I guess China had to like make Blizzard fire some people and it just changed the whole sites view of Muslims.

      Just wait until an "islamist" in germany/france/western europe cuts someone because their life is completely meaningless there so they're an easy target of radicalization and you'll see how "pro-muslim" reddit is.

      No lol. On a good day, we can also find a decent amount of pro-PRC comments. There's always this large racist base that needs to be chipped away.

        On here or Reddit? Reddit always seems to be anti PRC, and this place is generally pro to Critical support of the PRC.

          Obviously I'm talking about reddit. There are a few good threads on worldnews from time to time. Most of the time it's a sinophobic mess.

      i have to avoid the discourse there, i mean i already limit myself to about 6 subs or so and hardly ever read comments on a couple of them. But earlier today I had to delete a few tweets for violating da rulez talking about this topic (blue cap people came out in droves to defend yang's shitty statements.) I'm normally very chill about this shit and just try to be nice to people to hopefully convince them and not be condescending but some of these fucking assholes just have no moral compass or actual understanding of isreal's commitment to massive genocide. it's very frustrating.

      Probably thinking of them landing on Palestinian heads

    We already get this outrage because they use satellite photos showing a mosque or old cemetery being dismantled to make way for infrastructure development as "proof" there's a genocide happening.
