So are boarding schools wrong or the barbed wire?

I read about the denazification policies in the DDR. They worked very well. They weren’t implemented in the Baltics and the Ukraine and now it’s full of fascists

Liberalism is garbage and as far as I’m concerned there is nothing worse than allowing a dangerous separatist movement to grow in your backyard. It’s transparently a western funded agitation to destabilize China

both. I disagree with your framing of them as categorically dangerous separatists, and even if there is a right wing nationalist element - which I have no doubt there is - that doesn’t change that China has a complicated history with regards to its ethnic peoples and relations (the same as any country with a large number of ethnic groups and a long history of inter ethnic conflict) and we should be wary of a majority treating a minority as such.

America put ethnic minorities in boarding schools designed to indoctrinate them too, it ended badly.

“mistreating the Muslim minorities isn’t cool” doesn’t have to mean “therefore they should break off from China and form their own country.”

because the only "evidence" for "China is demolishing mosques" is from satellite images and conjecture, and the broader "China is throwing Uighurs into camps" talking points are coming from the NED and other US foreign policy sources

if one has already made the leap from the Venezuela thread that the West is going to flat-out make complete falsifications to justify their agenda, why would China be any different?

I’m assuming that we’re viewing the Chinese government policy on Uighurs as coming from direct quotes of Chinese government officials and even by what they will publicly say they are doing, at face value, it’s not cool imo. But we randoms on a forum saying that aren’t the same as say, Republicans saying it and calling for sanctions.

Historically speaking, fascists have always used separatism as a tactic. Sudetenland, Croatia, Ukraine etc. First they demand autonomy then they demand language rights then they start ethnic cleansing.

China may have a complicated history but I don't remember the last time China started a genocidal supremacist war against its ethnic groups. I remember the Japanese doing that but not the Chinese. Even their beef with Vietnam doesn't amount to the level of racial enmity of say the US with Mexico.

What I am saying is that China is not America and we can be sensitive to racial mistreatment and also be wary of the white devil empire of making claims of civil rights abuses against their world rivals.

Yeah, it was demolished because it was built illegally and not up to code. They did the same thing to a statue of Mao in Henan. Nothing to do with fighting religion.

this is the exact reason given for the destruction of (some) mosques. so you're applying a double standard based on assumptions you're making due to a steady diet of western mass media.

it's looking more and more likely the mosque that canadian law student who's positioning himself as xinjiang brown moses claimed was destroyed actually wasn't at all, by the way.

Code violations are a well utilized way to gently caress with minority populations. And it'd help if we could get like, anything out of that region news-wise or image-wise. You'd think it would be easy to get a new photo of the mosque. It's a building, it doesn't move.

exactly if separatist extremists take power and establish fascist-natonalist state in western China then Han Chinese will be ethnically cleansed from their homes like the Russians in central asia even though many have lived there since tang dynasty

ofc this thread doesn't care about the rights of ethnic chinese because of "yellow peril" western propaganda

the mosque is in a small village well outside of hotan. not a populous tourism destination like kashgar. but there have been weibo posts and videos cut after march 2018 when it was supposedly demolished that show the building intact.

and people hate brown moses because he's a fraud getting funds from gulf states and nato lol

While the UK dithers over social care, China is starting to deliver

quote:

In the past three or four years the Chinese care sector has seen explosive growth in services from homecare to retirement communities. One example is a network of more than 200 care hubs that has been established across Shanghai.

The hubs provide social activities and connections, rehabilitation, information and advice as well as respite and early stage dementia care. Publicly funded and owned but privately operated, they are playing a key role in supporting older people in their own homes.

Technology is also an important part of China’s plans. That might include things like smart beds that can monitor sleeping patterns, and enable social connections via a screen that can be used for Skype and other communications; screening and rehabilitation equipment; and greater use of motion detectors and AI, to analyse how people walk, or facial analysis, to identify potential risks of falls or stroke.

Technology-enabled care is seen as complementary to expanding and making the best possible use of the care workforce. Here too there are lessons when it comes to growing and retaining a quality workforce. In the time it has taken Shanghai to roll out its network of care hubs, the UK has been left waiting for the government to publish its green paper. Where the UK dithers, China is decisive.
