i also like the sentiment that Arab culture is real Muslim culture and when China gets rid of Arabic calligraphy and minarets in favor of traditional Uighur and Hui art and architecture…that’s cultural genocide too. maybe they should give everyone a Fez to make the west happy

mawarannahr posted:i have no idea, personally. there is no “good faith” in any of the information coming out and I know Turkey funds extremism and have had people ask me to donate to The Cause back in the mid 2000s. I get a little unnerved when the idea of a cultural genocide is rejected completely because I can’t think of a better way to describe the Turkish approach against the Kurds and I think it goes beyond assimilation. i am willing to examine a different kind of approach that better ties the intentional destruction and denial of Kurdish culture, language etc and the violent reprisal against their expression to a materialist framework I guess. I’m not really an expert or even well read on this topic, I just know some horrible horrible poo poo has happened and still happens to valorize a fabricated Turkish nationalist culture. Just like the Kurds, I think one of the biggest (if not the biggest) factors in bleeding the culture dry is that if you’re young and you want a better life for yourself you move to the big important cities where all the better jobs are. Even without concerted efforts to clamp down on cultural expression that dynamic will still be there. Dunno what can be done about that I’m not an ideas guy

AnimeIsTrash posted:Zenz's issue with the Uyghurs isn't the genocide stuff anyways. He's completely fine with wiping muslims off the face of the earth. He's upset that women are getting agency, and that the communists are the people that made this happen. stop making me want to watch anime just to come up with counterpunches to poo poo like this

like honestly the idea that Arabic script isn’t important to Muslims globally is so weird to me. it’s like saying the Jewish diaspora places no value on the Hebrew alphabet not all American/African/East Asian/etc Jews can read Hebrew just like not all Uyghurs can read Arabic. it’s still part of their traditional culture in imagery and architecture cause it’s important to their religious history is it all of Uyghur Muslim culture, obviously not. is it part of it? yeah lol. is it cultural genocide or ethnic cleansing or whatever for China to remove it? definitely no. but does that mean China removing it is a means of restoring traditional Uyghur imagery? also no

I was at a movie screening yesterday and the team who made the movie was chinese and a white guy in the Q&A said "I used to live in china and I just want everyone to know this team is putting themselves in danger making a film in the west" and just kept talking and talking about what he knew about china and threw some chinese words in there and I thought of this thread but I'm actually not sure why cause it seems a lot of you never lived there
