Good lord, that place is unbelievably dystopian. If it wasn't real, I would have called it a bad Orwellian fiction.
Dozens of security cameras everywhere, inside shops, streets, and even the mosque. Mandatory government id, tied to a facial recognition regime. No shortage of well armed police, and plenty of fear.
From another article:
" 120,000 Uighurs are being held in Chinese political reeducation camps in Kashgar prefecture alone, according to Radio Free Asia (RFA). Guards force detainees to sing patriotic songs, bombard them with propaganda, and require them to study “Xi Jinping Thought.” Beijing does not publicly acknowledge the existence of these camps, yet Uighur activists estimate 1 million Uighurs have been detained since April 2017. "
Given this climate, I find it hard to believe that this is the only activities going on behind the camp doors.
If there was ever something the US should condemn China for, it's this.
