    I don’t even hate China. It’s possible to understand that US Propaganda is a problem and also understand that both the US and China have committed some very deploy atrocities.

      So why you believe them?

      China have committed some very deploy atrocities.

      So focus on real ones and not the bullshit ones.

        I don’t believe human rights violations committed against Muslims in China is bullshit.

        Y’all just believe whatever foreign governments say? I bet you believe that Israel isn’t committing genocide against Palestine.

          If you want to play a game send me a source of the humans rights violations and I’ll try to find where their are citing Adrian Zenz.

          If you believe in anything Adrian Zenz has to say you are a fool.

            Can you tell me about why he is untrustworthy? I’m arguing with a lot of people in the comments but that’s just people being jerks without giving any real reasoning or arguments, but I’m open to learning about other points of view on many topics if it’s a respectful conversation.

            EDIT: I double checked the Amnesty International report and it doesn’t seem to source Zenz from what I can tell.

            Here’s a link.

              Their real report is this one is quite extensive.

              The last paragraph is:

              In 2022, a report assessing the human rights situation in the Uyghur Region by the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) documented serious human rights violations against Uyghur and other predominantly Muslim ethnic minority communities, corroborating the findings of Amnesty International and other credible organizations. The UN report concluded that these violations may constitute crimes under international law, including crimes against humanity.

              The report is here.

              The report cite Zenz 2 times directly and probably more indirectly.

              Can you tell me about why he is untrustworthy?

              He is a propagandist that works for Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation. And What Dr. Zenz has to say about gaza? NOTHING in fact he’s spend his time criticizing Palestine: prints

          We have endless footage of the genocide in Gaza despite the massive surveillance from Israel, we have no footage of any genocide in Xinjiang, serious allegations like that need evidence

            So if Israel had only captured Palestinians and put them in forced labor camps or sterilized women you wouldn’t believe that either? Human rights violations only count if you blow up a building I guess.

            I don’t understand your logic.

              Gaza is the most controlled strip of land on Earth, yet we have endless video of carnage

              Xinjiang is a tourist mecca that saw 300 million smartphone-wielding visitors from around the world last year, yet we have zero evidence of abuse

              Make it make sense

              the only evidence we have come from clearly biases sources; either directly from the western gov’ts or organizations that are enabled by western gov’ts.

              evidence from gaza comes from some random guy on the streets with a smartphone.

                But the only reports we have of it being a hoax are from China. I don’t want to trust either government. I don’t see why we would blindly believe one jus because it’s the opposition.

                I’m sort of in the middle. Yes, human rights violations have been happening there but, also that Western governments exaggerated or embellish reports on it.

                  there are plenty of non-chinese sources that say this (eg UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, Amsterdam University Academics, etc.).

                  the problem is that these viewpoints are not parroted by western media, so it’s up to you to look for it rather than been spoonfed propaganda saying that it is happening.

                    Dude I hate all countries especially my own. I’m immune to your racist CCP bullshit. I know your history and mine. Guess what? Yours is way worse.

                    i would love to see the measure you’re using for this insane take. lol
