Political Memes

Lmao at CCP apologists here. Just cut the noise of "he said, she said"-type of denunciation of sources because it's "Western" and use Occam's razor on this. Most people don't want to be bothered and to just get on with their lives. If the Uyghurs are indeed not being genocided, hundreds if not thousands of them would not bother to protest. Because if they aren't, they would prefer to simply get on with their own lives. There are too many complaints not to ignore if there is no genocide happening. If there's smoke, there's fire.

It's only genocide if its from the Völkermord region in Germany. Otherwise it's just sparkling mass murder.

A year or so ago, the new UK government sent a delegation to China to improve relations and shore up trade and investment deals, ignoring criticism from the left about Uyghur genocide

This is what the Tankies get fundamentally wrong about the modern world - the idea that anything anti-China is a smear to further Western Imperialism is a throwback to the cold war dichotomy of The West vs Communism.

In reality now, it's all about investment and global trade, neoliberal wealth generation over human rights. Of course propaganda is real and everywhere, but the framing of it all as West vs East is just incredibly outdated and oversimplified.

Downplaying or waving away mistreatment of the Uyghurs puts you on the same side as Western Governments, so dismissing the issue as Western Propaganda is fundamentally flawed

Lmao
