More than 180 cases traced to garment factory where Uighurs must take up work placements

state media reports about the factory said it employed about 300 villagers, mostly women, who could earn as much as 90 yuan (about £10) a day

Those monsters.

Also, Zenz I'd once again the only 'expert' questioned. Fuck the Guardian.

    I think its funny to see these forced labor accusations, when in the US prison labor is widely employed. Many prison laborers make less than a dollar an hour.

    Is anyone in the West going to cry about forced labor in the US? No?

        oh you mean like how we didn't have enough prison labor to fight the fires caused by climate change because we just let our prisoners die rather than free some of them and actually prevent them getting infected with a deadly disease?

      Capitalists' attacks on their enemies are always projection.
