      the anglosphere buried children and genocided the rest of their familes while china built schools – quit swallowing american propaganda.

      american, canadian and australian policies were genocidal. they built residential schools that forcibly removed indigenous children; banned their languages; and caused thousands of deaths. over 1,800 unmarked graves were recently discovered in canada alone and all three countries had a policy of “kill the indian, save the man.” canada’s indian act stripped sovereignty, banned ceremonies, and enabled forced sterilizations into the 1970s.

      china has nothing close to this. yes, it promotes mandarin in education, but minority languages (tibetan, uyghur, mongolian) are still taught, used and – most importantly-- not banned. ethnic autonomous regions cover over 60% of china’s territory yet no mass graves; no stolen children; no forced sterilization like in the united states, canada, australia, greenland or even isreal.

        In addition to mass detention, government policies have included suppression of Uyghur religious practices,[7] political indoctrination,[8] forced sterilization,[9] forced contraception,[10][11] and forced abortion.[12][13] An estimated 16,000 mosques have been razed or damaged,[2] and hundreds of thousands of children have been forcibly separated from their parents and sent to boarding schools.

        I’m not defending America. But you are defending China and you shouldn’t.

          NATOPedia isn’t as neutral or objective as people think.

          Previously:

          The US tried to foment division in China by funding and organizing Salafi terrorist into Xinjiang, and once its efforts failed, it made lemonade out of its lemon by concocting and promoting a genocide narrative.

          The only countries pushing this narrative are the “always the same mapimperial core countries, which just so happen to be largely the same ones supporting Israel’s genocide.

          Almost no predominantly-Muslim country buys the Uyghur genocide narrative, because they know it’s bullshit, because they talked to the Uyghurs themselves.

          Genocide is more than just killing, it’s the deliberate destruction of a people including its culture and institutions.

          (a) Show me the Uyghur bodies

          (b) Show me the serious bodily or mental harm

          (c) Show me the conditions calculated to bring about physical destruction in whole or in part

          (d) Show me the measures intended to prevent births within the group

          In accordance with China’s affirmative action policies towards ethnic minorities, all non-Han ethnic groups were subject to different laws and were usually allowed to have two children in urban areas, and three or four in rural areas.

          (e) Show me the forcible transfer of children from one group to another group

          violent incidents in East Turkestan

          I wonder where those Salafi terrorists came from? Oh right: the US, UK, and Israel organized, funded, and trained them, as they did Al Qaeda and the various flavors of ISIS/ISIL, including the “moderate rebels” that just took over Syria.

          not even elementary school children are allowed to cite wikipedia anymore because it so biased and wrong. lol

          and speaking of bias: nearly half the citations in the references are funded by the us government – both directly and indirectly. go read to what happened when trump gutted most of usaid and you’ll see how deep the american propaganda factory goes.

          or better yet, do yourself a favor – read anything from the american freedom of information act. the american gov’t has effectively been forced to admit it fabricates propaganda and this fact has been public record since the 1970s, americans still believe the propaganda anyways.

              i’ll restate my comment using a copy/paste of different comment:

              the freedom of information act provides a quick & easy litmus test for things like this – and human rights watch fails it.

              since 1979, the freedom of information act has been proving that the western characterization of north korea as a hermit kingdom with despotic rulers was american manufactured propaganda – and almost 50 years later, human rights watch still believes the propaganda somehow.

              this isn’t some random conspiracy theory – this is the american 👏 fucking 👏 government 👏 itself effectively admitting it to the public and in writing almost a half century ago that they manufactured this propaganda, but human rights watch still believes in this propaganda anyways so there’s no reason to listen to what they have to say about china.

      “China voted in favor of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples” and your beloved daddy america voted against it, the declaration was being voted on in 2007 when the 5 minority autonomous regions were established between 1947 -1965, it wasn’t until 1975 with the “Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act” did the native americans get autonomy

        Why not finish the paragraph?

        Even though China voted in favor of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, the government has not implemented the plan.
