This actually sounds like what someone from the pro-CCP camp would write, actually, since that sort of obfuscation is precisely what the authorities there would desire, muddying the waters and shelving the topic while they continue to get away with the acts they've committed.
I didn't mean to come of as some sort of propaganda machine, I've been digging through this thing a lot for a while and tried to stay as neutral as possible.
You mentioned an interesting keyword, information vaccum which perfectly describes my feeling regarding this!
When I talked about "propaganda from both sides", I was thinking of the US funded news organisations like rfa.org, benarnews (and their history with CIA to spread an agenda and one-sided information)
I try my best to not rely solely on a single piece of source but instead put togheter multiple sources to make up my mind.
Other reports like the OIC-countries visiting these reeducatation (concentration) camps in Xinjiang and later praising China felt weird, why would they? Is it because of Chinas massive investment in these countries?
