Why isn't there an international condemnation from governments despite of UN raising concerns, journalists tracking satellite images, tourist videos, leaked CCP papers on the protocols, etc?
What is stopping governments from strongly condemning and taking action against a modern take on Nazi fascism? 1.1 Million CCP members are staying inside of Uigher homes while their husbands are attending camps. I don't doubt if there are hundreds of thousands of rape incidents in the name of cleansing the genetic makeup of Uighers (and now Tibetians).
This is not acceptable in 2019. Fuck the CCP. We have funded this state - stop now and push back.
It is year 2025 - and we will look back 5 years and say to ourselves, "Why did the world let this atrocity happen?". It is year 2030 - 7 million Hong Kong people are imprisoned in the same camps, along with Taiwanese population. Africa is fully funded and operationally dependent on the Chinese government, AI + modern weaponry is miles ahead of anything US/EU/APEC can come up with. Our online fingerprints remain. My instagram post protesting against this in 2019 has lead me to a prison in Sri Lanka (run by the CCP), I am posting this from a hacked forum login that I found...help. I need help.

- i_am_nomad 7y agoYou would expect at least Israel to stand up and say something. All this talk of “never again” and “there was no one left to speak out for me” is starting to ring hollow.
- Red_Leaves_Flyy 7y agoWhy would you expect Israel to care about Muslims? Have you heard of Palestine? Israel has been doing, what China is now doing to uighurs, to Palestinians for decades.
- theandrewbailey 7y agoPalestinians and Muslims are distinct groups.
- Red_Leaves_Flyy 7y agoI'm aware. I gave an example of Israel's treatment towards some Muslims. You didn't answer the question: why would you expect Israel to care about Muslims elsewhere?
- ceejayoz 7y agoSame reason we don't sanction the Saudis - we want (and have built our economy around) what they're selling.

- duelingjello 7y agoThat would work about as well as sanctions. Did Cuba change? No. Did North Korea change? No. Did North Koreans starve? Yes. Did Iran change? No, and recent rumblings aren't related. Did Syria change? No. Did South Africa change? Not because of sanctions or boycotts, but because the severe/unjust racism was no longer bearable. Did Venezuela change? No. Do I need to list more? "Quick fix," cancel culture, collective punishment doesn't change policy, it exacts a toll on innocent bystanders who have little or no power to change anything.
- RugnirViking 7y agoWhat, historically, has worked reliably? Invasion? Sanctions are about the best tool that exists as far as I can see. There are some things to do with targeting money held overseas, or espionage, but i'm sure those options are already in full force by the time sanctions roll around.
- ozmodiar 7y agoIt's pretty new, so not historical, but I'm interested to see how the Magnitsky Act could be applied in situations like this. It targets the wealthy ruling classes by seizing the assets they keep abroad. I'm not sure if it would be more effective, but at least the pain is felt by those in charge and not the general populace.
- duelingjello 7y agoSanctions don't affect the leadership, they starve the people. Palestine, Cuba, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, North Korea and many others... admit the truth: it's. hardly-ever. works. It only "feels" like a solution, but it's purely an idealistic panacea based on diffuse, passive-aggressive, starvation-causing harm. The problem and solution comes by first asking "what's worked and at what cost?" Monroe doctrine has been the over-arching ideology: US corporate interests > everyone else's. That's the problem: trying to control other countries and steal their resources, rather than dealing with other countries as equals by mutual-respect of sovereignties. ---- "Successes" (but failures in diplomatic and popularity terms) ---- - invasion (see: Smedley Butler's War is a Racket ) - genocide - death squads trained by SoA - arms trafficking in exchange for cocaine - illegally sending arms to right-wing death squads - CIA-backed coups, overt and covert ---- Failed ---- - US plutocrats' media-fought coup attempt recently Venezuela

- president 7y agoThe main issue is that much of the global mainstream media and politicians have been co-opted by the CCP through bribes and blackmail. Due to this, your average citizen is largely unaware of the threats posed by the CCP regime. This has been made worse by the ever-increasing influence operations that have people thinking that Communist China is the poster-child of successful modern governance.
