Yes, I oppose genocide everywhere. I'm not inclined to disagree that there is misinformation, and clearly I'm susceptible to that as well. But there are also sources coming directly from the mouths of people trying to survive this mess. I'm inclined to listen to those people. Beyond that, I don't see any reason to defend a powerful, hypercapitalistic nation like China when there are people coming from ground zero explaining the atrocities they are experiencing. Just like I don't feel like defending a hypercapitalistic nation like the US when they massacre people in the Middle East or fund the massacre as in Palestine. Seriously, what do you even gain from falling on the sword for China?

Okay thats good, but I still dont understand what the hell you are talking about. You keep talking about atrocities in China, but all you have shown are fake news. I am not "falling on the sword" and I am not gaining anything. I have simply investigated the issue and cone to a conclusion. If you disagree with my opinion, thats not my problem.

Try these on for size.

https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Uighur_genocide the quote at the top of the page should be enough for any individual with a shred of empathy, but everything's cited.

If you actually take the time to look through these sources instead of letting your knee-jerk tell you it's all just US funded anti China propoganda, you might realize what horrific things you're defending.

All you do is keep throwing links at me which are easy to refute. But I wont do that, instead I will just give you one link: https://web.archive.org/web/20200829152829/https://docs.google.com/document/d/1d0lynghlCnR6Hs57pypEEhlhHczFVgaYX-TIZD61s_w/mobilebasic

I know that you probably wont read it. Just accept the fact that this is a controversial issue and I have a different opinion from yours.

I skimmed through it, and I found that it was just filled with easily refutable "evidence" and a lot of it actually casts China in a bad light. See? We can both play this game.

You said my links were easy to refute, but you never did it. The burden of proof here is on you because you are the one denying this well documented genocide. You expect me to just accept this link of a single person collecting all of their "research"? I gave you a wide variety of sources and you never showed me anything convincing in opposition to them. Just a link filled with lots of apologetics that inadvertently supports the very position they oppose.
