Both organisations have acknowledged that there is at the worst a cultural genocide going on - ie. An erasure of culture.
One can wonder how such a genocide is carried out, when the Uyghur language is still taught, Uyghur culture and language is still freely distributed and promoted and Uyghur people are a prominent part of the Chinese popular culture.
Your claim leads me to believe you did not engage with the sources provided to you.
Forced sterilisation (birth rates are down 60% vs about 10% for the rest of China) and forceful reeducation? They don't care about the language as much as the shared cultural identity separate from China.
Birth rates were already much lower in the rest of China, did the Han do a genocide on themselves first lol or is declining birth rate the norm in a country with massively improved economic conditions and development, and has that begun to affect the more rural regions of China?
No, that isn’t a clarification. You’re not understanding that the birth rates in the rest of China were already much lower prior to the 10% decrease. The Uighur population has been growing even as the Han population has leveled out, because the Han already had lower birth rates for decades. The Uighur were exempted from the one child policy as well. So yeah, the rest decreased 10%, there was less room to decrease in the first place because birth rates were already very low!
Did you even look at the carrd? If you're not gonna engage with the sources, then it's pretty clear you're not arguing in goog faith and there's no reason for this discussion to continue
I'm trying to talk in good faith, but I don't have 10 hours to read about it. I've only researched about 1 or 2 hours. But I'm definitely not just taking your website at face value.
If you want to call the discussion off, I'm fine with that. This thread has given an adequate sample of hexbear ideology.
Hey thanks for chiming in! I didn't notice it was the same user. It's pretty sad someone can be this resilient to challenging their own worldview. If they truly were so secure in their knowledge they would interact with the sources provided, yet they fail to do so. At some point you can only assume it's because they're afraid at some level.
It's really disappointing
Hey I'm glad to hear you point out the good faith stuff. I'm interacting with a few of your site buddies and I gotta say, there's a whole lot of bad faith stuff going on, so I'm sorta defensive. I've provided sources a few times now and just get mocked or called a propagandist for it. Not your fault though, so it is unfair to direct the frustration at you.
I don't expect you to read it all in one go - there's a lot of stuff. We don't have to continue the conversation right now, we can pick it up when you're ready. I will say that I am not the one who gathered those sources, so beyond doing so e fact-checking and investigation on my own on these claims, I am not the most well-educated on the subject. We have a news mega, which is a great place for these exact discussions, which I would highly recommend. I can try to answer any questions you might have, though I think users like @SeventyTwoTrillion@hexbear.net or @Alaskaball@hexbear.net would be much better for any question that isn't super basic. I'll do my best though, and I'm certain there's a lot I could learn. Again for any real in-depth discussion I'd recommend the news mega.
Edit: nevermind you're the asshole troll that couldnt read a single source given to you in that thread before. Fuck me for assuming good faith and fuck you
I'm Chinese and literally grew up with Uyghurs downstairs in Hubei, they and the Hui family around the block were the only ones with more than 1 kid.
If you're referring to something Adrian Zenz said about 80% of new IUDs being sold in Xinjiang, he misread a decimal point 328,475 IUDs in Xinjiang out of 3,774,318. 8.7% of IUDs placed in China were in Xinjiang.
News quoted his 80% figure before he had to retract it, but it's already in the back of people's minds that China's forcibly sterilizing Uyghurs.

That's why I clarified that there was a approx. 10% across the county vs a 60% decrease in that area.
No, that isn’t a clarification. You’re not understanding that the birth rates in the rest of China were already much lower prior to the 10% decrease.

Lmao thanks for the heads up - what a pathetic dickhead
lol
Why would the CPC, in the same breath, exempt the Uyghurs from the One Child Policy but also force sterilization?
Maybe? Then they can look like they're not limiting the population while doing it covertly.
