25 of the 2,975 deputies attending the second session of the 13th NPC were Uygur, making them have roughly the attendence as a proportion of their polulation overall. The Han ethnicity represented 2,538 seats, and was the second least represented by ratio of the population overall.

I guess if you can survive the camps and can be virtuously re-educated you deserve to be a sycophant.

So happy for them 🥳🙌 this means there wasn't any crimes against humanity after all, must have all been a big western propaganda operation. 🤡

Western countries do not even pay the same level of lip service to their own minority populations, white people continue to dominate parliament and leadership roles in a manner that well overrepresents their makeup. Do you have sources for "crimes against humanity" that don't originate with Adrian Zenz, a US State Department propagandist? The re-education program is complete already.

You would do well to see why this story is so long-lasting despite a clear and odd lack of evidence, from UN inspectors finding no evidence to the ability to openly travel to Xinjiang, by reading The Xinjiang Atrocity Propaganda Blitz. Your attitude that the Uygur deputies must be sycophants and instead trust US State Department Propagandists over the people you claim to be fighting for is wildly chavanistic and racist. It's one thing to have a hypothesis and investigate it further, it's another thing entirely to assume its correct and doing no further investigation.

While I agree the concept of work is bad and we should do everything possible to make sure no one ever works again, jobs programs aren't crimes against humanity. Neither are housing investment programs or schools

Just because they didn't pay you to spout nonsense doesn't mean there's not verifiable evidence that they have paid people to do it, it just means you're gullible enough to do their legwork for free.

Congress just approved a 1.5 billion anti china propaganda package lmao, it was in your fucking news, how do y'all not get it.
