Canada's Parliament just voted to declare it a genocide. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/uighur-genocide-motion-vote-1.5922711 And I've been seeing a lot of conflicting takes on it on twitter and here. From what I can gather from researching the main issue is lack of indication of full on genocide there, but there also seems to be a fair amount of evidence that these camps do exist. I fail to see how that is "good" as people on this site appear to be indicating?

    lol holy shit it's okay to point out atrocities without being pro-CIA you know. christ you know this stuff doesn't exist in a vacuum, right?

      It’s okay to have views on China inseparable from Mike Pompeo’s and to do the work of the imperialists for them by helping them manufacture consent against any state that actually challenges their hegemony.

        gee I've been owned

        edit: actually I just want to make something clear. so, my options here are to either deny that these camps exist or be classified as a CIA op, right? there's no in-between? just checking here
