a completely unsourced rant, from the same people that peddled the 'Iraq has WMD's' bullshit.

Some names have been changed.

Was Adrien Zenz one of them?

    In the case you can also find the daughters profile, and she talks about her mom, so when I mean pretty legit, I mean, this woman has most likely been in a reeducation camp and most likely experienced these things

      That just means she was detained in some way. Doesn't prove that anything in the article actually happened, including the throw away line on sterilization.

        Providing birth control and education to minorities is a crime against humanity, what they should doing is encouraging them to have children in poverty so they can grow up damaged by their material conditions and locked away in private prisons to be used as a cheap source of labor

          It's not even that about birth control.

          The author of the article claims she got an injection while in prison. For all we know, it could have just been a flu jab.

          Even if there is a shot you can give a woman to render them permanently infertile (in which case why do women still have to get surgery to get their tubes tied?), and even if the author is now medically infertile as a result, it should be extremely trivial for her to produce a medical certificate or find a physician who can go on record to prove it.

          But that would go against the propaganda tactic of simply begging the question.

            Oh yeah I forgot about her. I thought they were talking about that new headline about Uighur women not being "baby making machines" anymore
