i actually wasnt even talking about the uyghur genocide as a whole, i was talking about one specific factory that the BBC went to and you can find tours of online. the interviewed people look like normal workers and say that their pay is way better than being a farmer etc.
the idea that theyre under duress when theyre getting interviewed off shift is absurd. apparently when a chinese person says something good about their living conditions theyre just brainwashed. wheres the phrenology emote
It's an unfalsifiable hypothesis. Anything positive is brainwashing or propaganda and anything negative is taken at face value no matter how absurd.
You simply can't have a serious conversation about china let along Xinjiang, which is obviously by design.
