This is the classic whataboutism that always pops up around China.
You're right about the stuff you said.
It doesn't mean we're not allowed to discuss the CCP disappearing people or bad things happening in authoritarian countries in general.
- georgeg23 4y agoThe point is we all need to turn down the temperature and stop being hysterical. They didn't disappear, they just aren't using social media.
- AnimalMuppet 4y agoAll those Uighurs didn't disappear, they just quit using social media? That's the lamest rationalization I have ever heard in my entire life. We can see the camps in satellite views, you know. (And those camps aren't just resorts where people can go to detox from social media...) Any given person, sure, I could buy your explanation. Saying that's all that's going on? No way.

- nitwit005 4y agoYes, sure, they just stopped using social media. They also don't show up to work, none of their family can contact them, the government refuses to say where they are, and social media posts about them are deleted. I'm sure it's entirely innocent.
