I mean, this isn't the first group the CPC has done this to. We only have to look back a bit to Tibet to see a proto version of what's happening now in Xinjiang

I mean, this isn't the first group the CPC has done this to. We only have to look back a bit to Tibet to see a proto version of what's happening now in Xinjiang. And no one really talks about that anymore. Heck, they're still "re-educating" Tibetans now [0]. So no, I don't think anyone will be looking back on any of this with embarrassment and sadness anytime soon. I do hope I'm wrong, but history has made me a cynic.

Nothing will change here. We are too comfortable with cheap Chinese goods that we will just cast this out of our minds. Same thing happened with coffee as well. Its not like people werent aware that coffee used slave labour but oh well what about the quality of life. The great western values of democracy, freedom and human rights have a very cheap price tag.
