    My country did exactly that to the native population, and you know what we call the residential schools now? A fucking ethnic genocide.

      We’re not talking about cultural erasure nor mass deaths. Just reeducating them from what the CIA and state dept did to them.

              Yeah, they were still trying to double down on the lie, even as they admitted they were lying. The facilities don’t exist anymore, because the Uyghurs were successfully reintegrated.

              No concern for their initial radicalization by western intelligence? Great concern for their claimed conditions from years ago? No acknowledgment of their current status and well-being, because it doesn’t fit the narrative?

              You couldn’t be more obvious.

                No concern for violence and genocide committed by the Chinese government? Great concern for towing the party lines? No acknowledgement of the cultural genocide committed by the Chinese government because it doesn’t fit the narrative?

                  Nope. No concern of claims of violence that were never substantiated. Especially since the people who made up the lies don’t even repeat them now, because we can see Uyghurs thriving and practicing their culture now.

                  Maybe you’ve been frozen since 2015. It’s 2025 now.

                    Except for all the people that suffered it never happened. You wake up and tell yourself “there is no war in Ba Sign Se”?
