Reply to comment by [deleted] in China calls for cease-fire in Ukraine, peace talks by 04_STI
Yes I admitted it because that's what it was. The point of my original comment was to redirect the attention from China's self-serving and disingenuous message of peace to the hypocrisy within their statehood.
Nice article from 2021 by the way. In the same article:
"It’s seen in Xinjiang’s cities, where many historic centers have been bulldozed and the Islamic call to prayer no longer rings out. It’s seen in Kashgar, where one mosque was converted into a café, and a section of another has been turned into a tourist toilet. It’s seen deep in the countryside, where Han Chinese officials run villages."
So yeah let me correct myself - not universal death sentences and imprisonment AFTER 2021, just complete denial of their beliefs and values and a stripping of the establishments that represent them without a sliver of apology or accountability.
"Did someone not learn about the China Soviet split in the 60s which was why the US established ties with China?"
Yes they split for a period of time but spent MUCH more time as allies against the West and more relevantly continue to do so today.

Oh so you won't mind that people bring up America's self-serving and disingenuous message of peace to the hypocrisy within their statehood the next time America calls for peace,
It's interesting that you immediately said Latino migrants are treated differently in different parts of the US while here you're just jumping at the chance to generalize the entirely of China based on a few anecdotes.
Nice article, let's get some more information on these groups
