What western media doesn't talk about is that cult got banned in China after publicity dousing children with gasoline and lighting them on fire. When they crossed the line into literal death cult killing kids, the Chinese government had to act because the outrage from the general public demanded it.

It's ironic that the US and a lot of western media claim they are wrongly persecuted when the US federal government would have sent in the ATF and FBI with armored personnel carriers to kill all their leaders (what the US does in such situations) had they pulled the same shit in the US.

With the situation in Xinjiang it was a similar line crossed when the US backed islamist groups started slaughtering elementary school children and people at places of worship, many of whom were muslim. They even started killing local Islamic religious leaders. The public demanded something be done. So ofc steps were taken to improve economic conditions, improve infrastructure, increase security, bring those responsible to justice, and identify disaffected young men who could be put through what in the west is called "diversion programs" but elsewhere gets labeled "reeducation". The real irony is within a few years the Chinese government turned the situation around with communities in the region having mostly positive opinions on the outcome while in the US school children and people at places of worship being slaughtered is something people just accept a normal part of life nothing can be done about.
