If it wasn't Chinese buyers it'd just be a different foreign group, it's like how wealthy Russians have bought up parts of the East Coast, Florida. And if it wasn't foreigners then it'd just be Californians. There's always a bigger fish.

Sorry for the dumb question but is there any English-language news outlet that is reporting the recent sabre rattling stuff in a way that isn't complete horseshit?

it literally isn’t. Foreign buyers are at best a few percent of the market.

https://www.straight.com/news/report-says-return-of-foreign-buyers-immigration-could-shift-vancouver-housing-market-into

that’s all foreign buyers, and for immigrants Indians far outnumber Chinese by most measures.

of course no rich white guy has ever wanted to live in the climatically least lovely city in Canada. Vancouver was just another Winnipeg until the drat chinee started coming

The next decade or two will feature US media cycling between different "fault lines" in china in an attempt to smash the country ala the USSR

It won't work of course, the PRC learned from the Warsaw pacts collapse. But you're gonna have to hear about how the Chinese are ethnically cleansing Yunnan in three years time.

gradenko_2000 posted:

if you honestly and genuinely believed that there was some kind of genocide going on in Xinjiang, and that you had incontrovertible proof of its existence, it seems a bit callous to just dust off your hands and conclude that "you won" without ever having actually done anything, or even delivered any measure of justice to the victims, or accountability to the alleged perpetrators

hell, wouldn't you be looking for similarly incontrovertible proof that the genocide was over? find a witness willing to say that they're NOT forcibly sterilizing women anymore? if you truly thought that the Chinese government was engaged in some kind of massive cover-up of the thing while it was going on, and indeed assume that anyone you talked to that said otherwise was being coerced, wouldn't you think that any kind of draw-down or withdrawal from the project was also some kind of ruse?

The ambiguity of what's going on in Xinjiang is boring people. Taiwan is the new topic now.

I’m glad the CCP turning back on their disgusting behavior towards the uighurs, here’s hoping they treat them like regular citizens and like human beings rather than as a target for mass detention. they’ll earn far more security by treating their citizens with respect and dignity.

The Hui have been docile for the past century but NED a new Panthay movement imo two you can get some CIA funded “Sultan” as their figurehead

Then bring back the Taiping while you’re at it. Like actual Taiping. Not this Eastern Lightning weaksauce

you’re right it’s important to put people in concentration camps en masse no matter what they did or didn’t do. it’s awesome that you would be on the same side as the colonialists and such if you were given the chance back then.

also caring about human beings no matter who they are and wishing for their fair treatment no matter what their religion or race is kinda what separates real socialists like me from red fash tankies like you, sorry to break the news for you.

I’m praising the CCP for dialing it back and coming somewhat to their senses a little, if they continue I will praise them for it but if they continue their abuse I will condemn them for it.

this article is utter horseshit, the methods have been refined enough now that when a case is discovered it's only the residential community — small groupings of apartment buildings or hotels — that go into lockdown. entire cities frequently do mass testing, but you're not seeing any urban areas shut down the way you did last february and march.

big shock that glenn swallows it hook line and sinker though!
