I don't see what the Irish famine has to do with the mao's "mistakes". Trying to distract from the conversation by talking about other atrocities doesn't prove any point. It was an economic protest by students? Did thousands die by the hands of tanks and rifles? Or was it peacefully disbanded? Why aren't you allowed to even mention it China if it was so benign? I'm guessing you aren't living there right now or else you would be too scared to mentioned it for fear of being disappeared. Why no response about those massive schools with armed guards in Xinjiang? The government has admitted they are "reeducating" them. The buildings are obviously there and in huge numbers.

I was just responding to your non-sequitur about the great leap forward. One was a earnest policy failure. The other was imposed to maintain a colonial mercantile arrangement, which killed two orders of magnitude more on a per-capital basis.

I'm guessing you aren't living there right now or else you would be too scared to mentioned it for fear of being disappeared. It was widely reported on state media. You can mention it, just like the other economic protests earlier in the 1980s. It just doesn't have the cultural and historical significance that the people in Washington with lanyards, and people who consume nothing but propaganda think it has. > Why no response about those massive schools with armed guards in Xinjiang?

Is the existence of prisons in the US an obvious sign of a genocide against African Americans?

  > Should we impose economic sanctions against the UK for their human rights abuses? Are they doing this now? No. Is the CCP committing genocide now? Yes. > It was widely reported on state media. You can mention it, just like the other economic protests earlier in the 1980s. It just doesn't have the cultural and historical significance that the people in Washington with lanyards, and people who consume nothing but propaganda think it has. Can you show me some examples of discussions about tianamen square in Chinese social media to show that any conversations that don't follow the party line are allowed? Was the "economic" protest not put down with extreme force and did thousands of people not die? > Is the existence of prisons in the US an obvious sign of a genocide against African Americans? You are ignoring my question that is trying to get the heart of this whole conversation, the genocide taking place in xinjiang and with some distracting question. Your government has admitted to building these as "reeducation" facilities and a large population is getting oppressed and processed through these. These facilities exist, there is a ton of evidence to support it. There are guard towers, walls, armed guards, etc. Are you asserting these prisons are empty?
