Yet, they still manage to have concern for Uyghurs, who they didn’t know existed until imperial core propaganda started manufacturing bullshit about them.

As someone said, the empire hates chinese people and muslims, but for some reason they seem to love muslim chinese

How about condemning that as well instead of defending it, because US did other heinous things?

You also going to start demanding we condemn the "white genocide" in South Africa?

I do condemn it. I condemn the US for giving aid to militant jihadist terrorgroups in the Xinjiang province with the purpose of destabilising the region.
I condemn Adrian Zenz and all his ilk for his "divine anti-communist mission" and for pretending to be an expert on a country youve visited once and the language of which you dont speak.
I condemn all the redditors for their sophomoric approach to life where they pretend to be experts on a subject they've never investigated beyond the state department propaganda shoved in their face every day.
I condemn China for not being perfect in it's administration of the anti-radicalisation programmes I guess.

Have you actually read the "report" about the "Uyghur genocide"? Have you read the "Xinjiang police files"? Or are you just so insulated in the western echo chamber you don't even know of them?

Why would I condemn something that didn’t happen? Previously:

You can’t bring us evidence because there isn’t any.

The US tried to foment division in China by funding and organizing Salafi terrorist into Xinjiang, and once its efforts failed, it made lemonade out of its lemon by concocting and promoting a genocide narrative.

The only countries pushing this narrative are the “always the same mapimperial core countries, which just so happen to be largely the same ones supporting Israel’s genocide.

Almost no predominantly-Muslim country buys the Uyghur genocide narrative, because they know it’s bullshit, because they talked to the Uyghurs themselves.

I think it's not great that there's been some cases of abuse in China's vocational facilities in Xinjiang, but that's all that the evidence from Western NGOs actually substantiates. Not genocide, ethnic cleansing, organ harvesting, or whatever it is that you want critics of imperialism to condemn.

Let me ask you this: what would it actually mean materially for every communist in Europe and North America to condemn China? Do they have to send letters to their representatives asking them to put tariffs on China and exert diplomatic pressure on Beijing? Do they have to protest at their nearest Chinese embassy? Leftists in the West already live in countries that have anti-China foreign policies. We couldn't make them more anti-China if we tried. So what's your goal?

Sorry, I trust the OIC and it is highly suspicious that the only concerned countries are both islamophobic and sinophobic with only a few exceptions.

[–] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 18 points 1 month ago

You're not supposed to trust OIC because they're biased in favor of China. You're supposed to trust the NATO bloc countries, they have no bias.
