    At the same time, they believe whatever half-baked narrative about Uyghurs in xinjiang by a totally biased pseudoscholar.

      it's so crazy to me how there have been thousands of pictures and videos showing incontrovertible proof people in Palestine are being massacred, we've seen exactly zero pictures or videos of the same happening in Xinjiang yet between the two countries China is the one being accused of genocide by the west

        They believe what the State Dept and mass western bourgeois press tells them to believe. The press told them China doing a genocide is a fact, State Dept agreed, they believe it. Those two reject the reality of Palestinian suffering, highlight only zionist propaganda messaging and this is the result. These people aren't seeing those pictures or don't consider them reliable because the "authoritative people" haven't made the call for it so it's all just Russian disinfo psyops or whatever.

        Rejecting the truthfulness of those two institutions would require changing their worldviews and then they wouldn't be liberals. There's also something to be said for white supremacy. Casting Asians as barbaric, brutal, hordes is easy and doesn't dispute the white supremacist narrative. Casting white coded zionist settlers as bad would disrupt the narrative, better to continue to code brown Muslim people as barbaric hordes just like those Asiatic types out to destroy the "garden" of white civilization.

        Oh you want proof? Best I can do is a heavily pixelated of some school in China. There's your proof. Huh? You won't accept it? CPP SHILL! The Chinese government is using some sort of magical technology to block our satellites!

        Remember guys, Chinese technology is shit when it's convenient and highly advanced when it's convenient for the narrative.

      Easy to explain, they want Muslims (or Palestinians in general of any faith) to die in Gaza and they want Muslims to fight China for them in xinjiang, like a lot of Muslims did in Afghanistan against the USSR.

      There is no cognitive dissonance here. They are looking out for themselves and their empire. The narratives aren't for them, it's for others.
