Where did I defend the CCP or communism?
(I do fully support communism and have critical support for China, but that's not the question here)
Show me evidence that the Uyghur are being persecuted
You're a Lemmygrad user, they're going to assume that's your intent by default
The communism preference, yes. As for the CCP: They literally denied Uyghur persecution. Not even genocide, which is a claim that, due to its severity, is always going to be hard to prove, and thus debatable, I get that.
But even just the fact that the ethnic-religious group of Uyghurs are being persecuted on a large scale, had to be denied. That's pretty extreme.
Thank you for answering.
I am not sure where to start, but let's take the easy way: At the moment of writing, the wikipedia page "Persecution of Uyghurs in China" has 585 references.
They're probably all written by seemingly independent institutions, journalists and scientists who somehow have a McCarthyist-like fear of communism that they'd risk their credibility just to add a bit of damage to communist China's moral standing?
Or are they all factually incorrect through some other mechanism?
