    I’m gonna beat a dead horse here but, the more I see the ramifications of the Palestinian genocide unfolding now the more I find the whole Xinjiang propaganda period baffling. I dare hoping that a lot of baby leftists will look back at it and realise what a genocide really is and how little the US state and media really care

      Yeah, like we have not even seen one clear footage of the Chinese doing evil shit in Xinjiang that hasn’t been debunked. Either the Chinese are insanely good in hiding their atrocities, or, you know, they aren’t real.

      I don’t think it’s beating a dead horse, tiny tank. I was just talking to someone I know about this who was on my ass when I said the whole uyghur genocide narrative was fabrication.

      It’s pretty obvious that had China been genociding Muslims, the US state department would have been supportive of it. I don’t see how weird libs whose political identity is wanting to smugly be correct and good don’t see how their opinions are always directly in line with the US state.

      I do hope it’s a radicalizing moment for people,and maybe it is. I don’t have a good enough handle on popular sentiment for that.
