The mass hysteria reflects the biases inherent in the world’s most powerful media outlets.

Yeah: mass transit (transit) into camps (housing) for “re-education” (education), with the chance to get forcefully married to a real Chinese man (social mobility), or end up having your organs harvested (healthcare)

Do you have any idea what happens in China outside of the limited view presented by journalists who have never stepped in the country?

Do people really need to know more? I don’t think there are any virtues that could make up for China’s treatment of Uyghurs and the people who try to save them.

Do you know the context behind Xinjiang or the affirmative action that China takes on its minority groups? Have you ever been to Xinjiang?

“affirmative action that China takes on its minority groups” good god, have the balls to call it what it is dude. China is doing a genocide. If that doesn’t bother you, that’s your deal, but at least own up to what you are defending

Do you know the context behind there’s no fucking context to genocide, it’s just a fucking holocaust?
