Clear evidence of some mosques being remodelled and party efforts to work with religious leaders to curb the influence of jihadism (which the CIA loves to exploit). Everything else is yellow peril nonsense.

My point is that mosques being remodeled constitutes a sign of human rights violations in and of itself is such a ridiculous stretch even by western standards that you can't help but laugh at whomever says it with a straight face. To compare it with what the french did is stopping just short of genocide apologia. The french did a whole lot more than remodel some buildings, they completely imposed a foreign religion, taught European supremacist history and civics and, oh, just kind of sort of stole every resource they could at gunpoint and under threat of torture.

I get that sinophobia is the flavor of the decade and the yellow peril is guilty until proven innocent a hundred times over for westerners, but until you find legitimate proof of human rights violations, you should restrain from making such accusations.

I did look at the FT article, and found the exact same drivel I find whenever I read State Department rags. Quoting US based gusanos as the only purveyors of truth on the foreign enemy, followed by a nothing burger that they build up into literally 1984.

Again, all the FT article does is present a handful of renewed mosques among the thousands that exist in China and quote some guys that pinky swear it's the first step in a campaign to "forcibly integrate" people that have been part of China for longer than there's been a USA. What is factually presented in the article? That mosques have been renovated. They even say that the inside of these mosques remain identical and the Q'uran is still as prominent as ever within the halls.

Notice it's always white Europeans and gusano expats whining and moaning about it, Muslim majority countries are commending this. But do tell China how to do inclusion the right way, I'm sure Muslims in France, Sweden, the UK and Germany must be over the moon at how well the Eur*s treat them.

And what exactly is the issue with working with religious scholars to harmonize religion with the law? I wish they'd have done that in the states 200 years ago instead of getting rabid christofascists who justify slavery, genocide and child abuse with the bible in the name of religious freedom (while also demonizing Islam). Westerners don't have a leg to stand on, mind your own countries first.

No, but I'm sure if FT was trying to sell a war with Mexico they'd find a way to imply the new colors are cultural genocide or whatever.

I didn't know Muslims had to have monolithic, generic buildings to the specifications of what westerners think a Mosque looks like. Were churches supposed to look gothic forever? Was making them baroque a human rights violation on christian Belgians?

I stg y'all are scraping the bottom of the barrel, twisting yourselves in knots to try to make the case that China is in any way remotely close to the many actual genocides the US and Europe have done and continue to do. It's pure projection and it only facilitates the next US/European atrocity, as it did in Korea, Vietnam, Indonesia, etc.

Giving maintenance and expanding mosques is a human rights violation now? I guess the Mexican government been genociding catholics, not one of the churches in my city looks like it did fifteen years ago.

People were happy about it too, brainwashed as they are.

Where's the evidence for that claim? There's evidence of it happening in Israel and the US migrant concentration camps, but I haven't seen any regarding China other than "trust me bro"

Peak lib brained statement. Does nobody have to die for it to be a murder?

Not that your assumption is any less false, there is zero evidence of genocide in Xinjiang, there is an open campaign against fundamentalist radicalization driven by US proxies which had resulted in some of the most deadly terror attacks in the world for more than a decade. The way such a campaign is conducted is via community outreach, job programs and (in cases where people have already been radicalized) reeducation.

These programs have been lauded by the Arab League as an example to be followed in the fight against terrorism. But if you have any evidence (actual evidence, not war-profiteer ASPI citing fascist evangelical Adrian Zenz and satellite pictures of nondescript buildings) I'd like to see it. Because if you don't have evidence but are happy to tell others that it's happening, you might want to examine your gullibility and whether it's driven by sinophobia.

"There is no war in Basingse"

Libs stop thinking of politics like a children's story challenge (impossible)

It is not a bold claim. Israel was from the outset an European colonial project which gained support from the US and Britain to gain a satellite in West Asia, as its unsinkable aircraft carrier/missile platform. The huge amounts of "aid" that has been given to them from its inception should be ample proof (whomever pays for the band picks the music) but US politicians aren't shy about it either, as with Biden

Were there not an Israel the United States would have to invent an Israel

We can think of a better system that the USSR or USA.

Not by listening to anarchists in the imperial core. If y'all can't be trusted not to sling mud at the guy under whose leadership the Nazis were stopped (and who repeatedly tried to stop them before they got as powerful as they did) then I don't trust y'all with anything else regarding politics.

In short, this isn’t a glowing report of Stalin’s achievements.

Of course it's not. It's an internal report by the CIA regarding the political situation in the USSR.

reflects the legacy of Stalin’s crackdowns on dissent and internal opposition

Oh no, if only they'd let CIA agents run amok in the name of freedom and democracy.

Genocide bad? Oh my god talk about a lack of nuance 🤓

Again, your only recourse is "Trump did it too" that's what I'm saying, jesus fucking christ. They're not staving off fascism, they're taking turns ramping it up in different places. When it comes to migrants and foreigners, their policies are the same; sometimes they change tactics or optics, but the end goal remains unchanged. You're hammering home the same point while saying it proves that democrats are much better. No they fucking ain't.

it was not due to a more hostile border policy, but rather an increase in the number of people actually showing up at the border in the first place.

So... it's okay because he was doing what Trump was doing, but a little less per migrant? There is, then, an acceptable rate of people in concentration camps, Trump was just a bit too loose with it.

I don't give a single shit if they're 10% worse for gringos, they're just as bad and in a lot of ways much worse for the rest of the world. It was Biden who pushed the doomsday clock closest to midnight than it'd been since the cuban missile crisis. It was Obama who ramped up the drone bombing campaign, it was Clinton who ordered Gaddafi killed, it was Biden who drafted the 90s crime bill that made the US the most incarcerated population in the entire world.

Matter of fact, whenever something got incredibly shitty for US citizens, you can flip a coin on whether it was Reagan who did it or Jim Crow Joe.
