Did you even read the table of contents? Did you read the part about the unnatural birth rates? Did you read about the complete lack of consistency that "Terrorism" and Extremism" laws have? Did you read about the surveillance state that exists there? The suppression of Uighur culture? The forced disappearances? You're comparing two things with a magnitude of difference. I can talk about American issues of systemic racism all day, but calling the two equal is exactly as you put it whitewashing the crimes of China by projecting them on to America. The destruction of the American Indian lands happened in the past, but the destruction of Xinjiang and Tibet is happening today. We can do something about it
You're talking to a sealion who's not here to have a discussion in good faith. Don't bother with them
American crimes against humanity are far worse, and they are ongoing. America has more people locked up than any other country in the world (including China which has quadruple the population) and they’re overwhelmingly disproportionately black and indigenous.
Also why are you putting terrorism and extremism in quotes, are you unaware of the terrorism campaigns carried out by ETIM and how the deradicalization program actually worked to end it? America is just malding because China figured out a relatively peaceful way (much moreso at least than America’s own approach of killing a million people across the entire Middle East after one terrorist attack) to neutralize imported Wahhabist terrorism. The CIA plan to destabilize China got foiled so now you’re crying genocide instead, but it’s so transparent that every single Muslim country in the world has sided with China on the issue.
What the fuck is “Tibet is happening today” even supposed to mean? Tibet is a place and it’s a way better place to live now than it was in 1950, when it was ruled by a slave driving religious monarchy. Tibetan Buddhists are moving to live in Chinese Tibet because it’s a much better place to live than India.
Like what? Repeat nonsensical atrocity propaganda from the state department and get psyched up for a war against China? Like you did for Iraq? Gross
That first bit you mention is probably just you misreading because this thread is interminable
i.e.
obviously false, but that's what they said
True, I must have misread that
Focus on your own country, cracker
Lol yes I read much more than the table of contents. Did you read anything beyond the table of contents? None of those things constitute a genocide.
And all of those things are common in America to a greater degree. “Surveillance state” ha! America has more cctv cameras per capita than China. America has concentration camps at the border where real genocide is happening complete with forced sterilization, separation of families, and killing/imprisoning of people without a trial
