- Alifatisk 3y agoThank you for the links, that's eye opening, considering that even Amnesty got involved. https://xinjiang.amnesty.org https://xinjiang.amnesty.org It's kind off scary how far propaganda can reach, I thought more news outlets would be more critical than spreading it further if that is the case. Aren't you a bit concerned with source you linked being closely related to the CCP?

- smoldesu 3y agoI struggle to agree with the author's conclusion on the second article: > It’s a strange thing: people hand-wring about the proliferation of pro-China propaganda, yet cannot name a single network or pundit associated with that view. China, perhaps? Why is the author so willing to ascribe uniform authoritarianism to American media while ignoring China's state-owned journalism? The whole thing is written with a hopelessly apologetic tone. The forced link to Nazi Germany just sinks this article for me, especially since it denies discussion of actual moral polemics like impunity and transparency.
- Alifatisk 3y agoEither way, its hard to tell the actual truth from lies in this case. Is something going in with the Muslims and the CCP or is it a false narrative pushed by the west?
- smoldesu 3y agoI don't know. The CCP gets cagey when people try to document their regime and take it abroad; in America, those journalists are protected by constitutional charter. Draw your own conclusions. I think the messaging around either administration speaks for itself.
