Using Wikipedia and Amnesty as source for China's oppression

You are a living caricature my dude.

What is wrong with using Wikipedia and Amnesty as a source?

Both of them are liberal propaganda outlets. ProleWiki have some good sources on them.

Isn't ProleWiki explicitly ideological wiki aligned with Marxist-Leninist / pro-socialist perspectives? Moreover, Amnesty International has reported on alleged human-rights abuses by many different governments, including Western countries as well as China.

You are free to check AI and Wikipedia's connections to intelligence services from any services you want.

Their criticism of Western abuse is good, they have some legit talking points. But the alleged Chinese and other AES abuses are grounded on the anticommunist talking points instead of real research. They say "both side bad" for the purpose of making people accept their realities instead of motivating them for a real civil rights movements.

I mean, it's not like Amnesty Internation regularly criticizes the US, especially in the current situation. But oh, it said something against the CPP, I guess it must be bad.

There's a difference between actively fighting against Hitler and saying Hitler bad but Stalin is worse. The latter includes a milquetoast criticism of Hitler and regurgitation of CIA and other alphabet mafia propaganda points.
