Western media and liberals on Lemmy apparently 🙄

Also liberals: you have to vote for the thing on top or you support Fascism.

Libs making clowns of themselves in this thread is even more comedic than the meme itself.

The real meme, was the libs we found along the way 😄

You could actually show the "education centers".

Here you go

How about both Palestinians and Uyghurs deserve to live?

After a decade of accusations, the West still hasn't been able to find even a single instance of a Uyghur being killed. Meanwhile we're getting daily footage of massacres in Gaza.
And that's with Gaza completely closed off with journalists being shoot on sight. Meanwhile anyone can visit Xinjiang
- ...a single instance of a Uyghur being killed
  Genocide is more than just killing, it's the deliberate destruction of a people including its culture and institutions. In fact, the reason you're so focused on people dying is because imperialist powers felt the need to redefine it to allow their exploitation. Even in its more narrow definition it still includes things like abducting and re-education of children and malicious targeted actions (forced labor, restricted reproduction, relocation, etc...).
  China is a massive country, and has always had issues with maintaining control over its more distant and ethnically distinct pockets. This stretches back centuries right up to now. For example: 100+ years of separatism, uprisings and violent incidents in East Turkestan. Or more recently, 160 Tibetans self immolating in protest of government repression since 2009. In this lens, there's plenty of evidence that could support these accusations.
  Meanwhile anyone can visit Xinjiang
  This sounds like something people parrot only if they haven't actually traveled China. For one, Xinjiang is massive. It's about the size of Iran; 1/6 of China by land area. Saying you can visit it is like saying you could visit somewhere in France + Spain + Germany + Italy.
  For two, foreigners require a special permit to visit ~12-15% of China (varying by year). This includes the expected restricted zones (military or government areas), but also the areas along borders (many in Tibet and Xinjiang) and "politically sensitive" areas. There's no official list published for obvious reasons but they'll certainly let you know if you're not welcome.
  As a disclaimer for those of you furiously typing whattaboutgaza: Yes that's a genocide. Yes, many countries have engaged in similar kinds of repression. Yes media will amplify stories that paint rivals in a bad light, no that's not unique to western media.
One of these groups is in fact living. The other not so much.

I'm sure you know the phrase "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence", yet while there are almost 400 sources documenting the Uyghur Persecution on the dedicated Wikipedia page, the basis for your argument is a photo of a city?

If what you're trying to say is that there is a genocide in Gaza that is not adequately documented by our media I'm all with you, but since this thread is attracting some deniers, maybe it's important to remember that this doesn't erase a completely disconnected fact that is documented by every major human rights organization (here is, for example, the whole report by Amnesty International: https://xinjiang.amnesty.org/).

That there is or was a “Uyghur genocide” is the extraordinary claim, for which there is extraordinarily scant evidence, which is why the UN dropped it three years ago. Almost no predominantly-Muslim country buys the Uyghur genocide narrative, because they know it’s bullshit, because they talked to the Uyghurs themselves.

#HRC51 | Draft resolution A/HRC/51/L.6 on holding a debate on the situation of human rights in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of #China, was REJECTED.
The US tried to foment division in China by funding and organizing Salafi terrorist into Xinjiang, and once those efforts failed, it concocted and promoted a genocide narrative.
The Xinjiang Genocide Allegations Are Unjustified
The Uyghur Human Rights Project is a product of the National Endowment for Democracy, which is the American government’s main regime change NGO.

The only countries pushing this narrative are the “always the same map” imperial core countries, which just so happen to be largely the same countries supporting Israel’s genocide.
It’s never to late to develop real media literacy or to understand how the US incessantly prosecutes regime change operations globally.
- Thank you so much for that detailed and informative post! It drives you crazy to see liberals denying the genocide in Gaza while accusing China of one without evidence

No no you don't understand, the Clintons and Obamas are actually paying Amnesty to fabricate that evidence because they hold a grudge against the Chinese ever since they went on a double date at Panda Express, got food poisoning, and shat their guts out for half a week
- It's very interesting that after two years of livestreamed genocide, this is the first time you've ever commented about genocide.
  Do you think that you're not transparent?
- What evidence
- This goes beyond confident incorrectness and into smug incorrectness.
No point in arguing with ml instances. They do not get much flak lately because most people has already blocked their instances.
- Then leave, freak
- No point in arguing because you'll lose
