The observation I made here has incredibly long odds, just because again, the Afghanis are only recently emboldened and I feel they would be most likely to spearhead aggressively, but any time I see someone engage in flat denialism and scold with, "WESTERN MEDIA," you just sound like every other State Run Media talking head for the past *checks watch* several decades. It's nothing personal, it's just like...yeah I dunno you sound like literally every other hyperpower who covers their asses, my own country of residence included. :v:

so your response to being told that we dont believe uyghurs are being genocided because no evidence is being presented isnt to present us with evidence that would change our minds but to say that we are being unreasonably close minded for not just taking the western media at its word that evidence exists

I did mean the recent protests; I do not live there, so as far as I can tell this is a media-side battle, but if there remains friction at all, that means that it's not 100% solid, so there's probably still something unresolved.

This does not concern me because at this point that's been internal China politics for a while, but I do hate to see any population upset or feel betrayed, as no matter where you lie on any opinion spectrum, if you see conflict of any kind, some poo poo is probably going down.

Any ability to try and influence HK as a region to stir unrest has been utterly eviscerated. Its just not possible anymore given the tightening of political control and increased scrutiny, you'd have to be a complete idiot to let someone from the US state department try to influence you to stir some poo poo, the type of idiot that will get easily caught. It also happened right before the US own political unrest, and contrasting both responses it becomes obvious that the angloshpere cannot claim moral superiority.

Also I have no idea whats going on with your Uyghur section but let me just say that there is a particular reason why it appears that the "crackdown" severely decreased after the US was expelled from Afghanistan. There were literal CIA blacksites near the borders and I dont think they were just doing enhanced interrogation in them. And there was a massive purge of collaborators during the final stages of the US involvement in the region which I guess helped.

Now look at what the US is doing with afghanistan after it was expelled, basically forcing it out of the western banking system and sanctioning to hell so they cant feed the people. Yes, a lot of this is punitive, but there is a more practical sociopathic reason to be doing this, it helps foment instability that we can exploit later. Now look at the Xinjiang region, what are we doing with all the calls about genocide from a practical standpoint? The US wants countries to stop dealing with them. The US knows they can longer influence other countries to stop trading with China in general, but if they can stop or slow down the economic development of a potential hotspot region that can be exploited then they are AOK. Decreasing poverty usually leads to happier people, and happier people are less likely to become willing/unwitting pawns of some other countries state department.

The US tried to do the same decades ago with Tibbet and failed miserably. Now its too late, Tibets is economy has improved incredibly, the addition of railways increased tourism and the recently constructed high speed railway will usher them into a new era. The people have no need for the dalai lama's magical feces anymore.

Yeah that is a lot of fart, idk, I see what you're saying there. Like I said my post is extremely distant speculation, but Islam did spread that far, although I have no idea what armed conflict in that region would look like. Like imagine Azerbijan getting involved lmao
