    What I can agree on is that if "Muslim persecution" was the true championed cause, the focus would be on Rohingya people above the Uighurs. There's a lot more documentation and evidence for their persecution, and yet no one talks about it anymore. In that sense, yeah, the constant drumbeat of Uighur genocide really leans heavy on the propaganda side.

    I just sketched out when China's state media "corrects the record" by using Orwellian language like "re-education camps" and "curbing Islamic terrorism".

      Except, by all appearances, they are literally running re-education camps to curb Islamic terrorism.

      Do you not know the background of the terrorism in Xinjiang?
