The Uyghurs have entered the chat
They quite literally have, the people in the bottom photo smiling with Xi are Uyghur, you can tell by the doppa hats and architecture. I recommend looking more into the situation in Xinjiang. The best and most comprehensive resource I have seen so far is Qiao Collective's Xinjiang: A Resource and Report Compilation. Qiao Collective is explicitly pro-PRC, but this is an extremely comprehensive write-up of the entire background of the events, the timeline of reports, and real and fake claims.
I also recommend reading the UN report and China's response to it. These are the most relevant accusations and responses without delving into straight up fantasy like Adrian Zenz, professional propagandist for the Victims of Communism Foundation, does.
Tourists also go to Xinjiang all the time. You can watch videos like this one on YouTube, though it obviously isn't going to be a comprehensive view of a complex situation like this.
Akshually, it's CPC! 🤓
Well, yes, actually, it is CPC. The standard formatting of communist parties is "Communist Party of X." This is the international standard, the CPC goes by CPC and not by CCP as CCP is more nationalist than internationalist.
And no, I'm not a CPC member, as cool as that would be to be one of those 100 million members, though I do organize (lightly so far) with a communist party in my country.
