I think people are skeptical, because a lot of the people talking about these camps clearly don't care about the people in them. They only care about making China look bad. Many politicians in the US are using this as an example of why China is bad, while simultaneously pushing for similar here with our prison system or with ICE.
Plus, even if they aren't being hypocrital, it is in the United States' interest to make China look bad, even if that means making things up or exaggerating.
- partiallypro 6y agoThere is definitely a distinction between immigration policy of people coming into your country vs rounding up your own citizens. So, we now just have to believe everything China says because the US isn't perfect? Germany and many European countries have camps for refugees from the Syrian war, but that's not even remotely the same as taking your own citizens into camps and harvesting their organs, hair, etc. Not even close. I am so tired of that comparison, it's lazy whataboutism without even thinking about the context or extent.
- canadaduane 6y agoI think there's quite a leap from "people are being skeptical" to "we now just have to believe everything China says".
