To me, this is clearly anti-China propaganda. Sure, you can take one article by itself and say this is neutral or slightly negative. No propaganda here! But what if 99/100 articles from NYT have the exact same tone? To me, that's propaganda.
Throw in an author that used to live in China for extra "credibility".
>Going back to your point, I feel like those things (cities being safe, no homeless) have nothing to do with the issues people are finding with it. You can have people living decently in cities and still commit a genocide on the side.
Oh I absolutely agree. I think you're referring to the genocide of Uyghurs? As far as I understand it, it's not a genocide in a sense of mass killing. I think when people hear the word "genocide", they automatically think jews in WW2 or Native Americans in the US. It seems like China is putting them into mass education camps in order to brainwash the Islamist extremism out of them. This is China's way of dealing with Islam extremism. Is it right or wrong? I don't know. I just know that China has Islamophobia, just like the US and EU does as well.
How do you think China should deal with Islam extremism/terrorism?
