    This is still happening: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Uyghurs_in_China

    So let’s play a game. The USA is bad, and China is bad. Your turn.

        I have not stake in this, but here you go: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/china-uyghur-uighur-turkey-oppression-rcna97238. I took one at random that was semi-recent and look somewhat relevant.

        Just look at the date of the references on Wikipedia and you will find plenty.

          This shit is so tiring.

          NBC is pretty shit that almost every hyperlink is to another nbc news but one of those hyperlinks go to Safeguard Defenders and other go to Amnesty International and both direct to a report made by OHCHR which just cite Adrian Zenz and his propaganda made by Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation.

          Holy shit is just impossible to find a source that doesn’t have bullshit propaganda. For any lib reading this, if a news source is citing a propaganda piece they are not writing news, they are writing propaganda.

          Are you saying you don’t believe in the white genocide going on in south africa right now?

          Are you saying you don’t believe that Hamas beheaded 40 babies?

          It’s spelled “Uyghurs”, by the way

              It’s only a non-answer if you have a sub-canine ability to process patterns

              Do you deny that Saddam Hussein was building weapons of mass destruction and had to be toppled?

              The burden of proof is on you. I can only provide context for the claims that have been raised. If you look at the sources they’re all western

                Technically the white papers linked come from China, typically, but these are presented alongside western sources as the dominant viewpoint.

                The burden of proof is on you.

                The burden of proof should be on you since you claimed https://www.qiaocollective.com/education/xinjiang as a source?

                Also, talking about burden of proof here makes not sense. You provided a source, one can either trust it or not. And the question was if you belived it to be true or not (which I assume you do since you linked it. I haven’t read it).
