    You sure about that? The Uyghers are being ethnicity cleaned as we speak. Same with Tibet. Plus China is taking territory. America is not.

      Man, if that is ethnic cleansing, I wonder what you’d call the mass incarceration and public, ad-hoc executions of black people in America as well as the deprivation of water and electricity of American Indians? What are the migrant concentration camps where they forcibly sterilize women and children are “lost” every day? We actually have pictures of those, you know?

      I bet they’d love some Chinese style ethnic cleansing rather than the American “inclusion”. Go look at a few videos from actual academics visiting and surveying Xinjiang and not just scary words and satellite photos from the entire Operation Mockingbird team US corporate media.

      Gringos oughta fix their nazi ass nation first and shut the fuck up until then.

        Wonder why there are pictures? Freedom of press. Wonder what’s happening to the Uyghers in that black hole of authoritarian censorship .

      Someone doesn’t know. Neither the history nor current events of the United States. Oh well. Can’t do much with a confidently wrong person.

          And for the record, I dislike China for what it has done to Tibet the Uyghur people.

              It could be better, and compared to some parts of the US, it is better.

                  Did you come here to make an actual point or just to lay up gotcha questions? Because your human rights concern troll wankery is weak tea in the face an ongoing genocide supported by the imperial core.

            America isn’t perfect. But you can investigate and do research. China is a black hole of denial and censorship.

            Liberating Tibetans from depraved, illiterate serfdom under Tibetan monarchy?[1][2]

            Liberating Uyghurs from CIA-backed terrorists’ attacks?[1][2][3]

          Gaza.

          Or if we are just counting domestic ethnic cleansings, I’d like you to open your mind to some perspectives here you may find hard to accept.

          Incoming president is talking about deporting legal and illegal immigrants from central and south America. I’d call that ethnic cleansing

          We target our black population with over policing and underfunding restricting them largely to dying neighborhoods where they are then made criminal, arrested And put to slave labor. I would say this is arguably ethnic cleansing.

          Native American reservations are poorly taken care of, placed on land of no value, and left to wallow. They starve and live in poverty. They have two choices. Integrate into America or suffer. Kill the Indian save the man. I’d say this is also arguably ethnic cleansing.

          Now, your gonna get reeeeeal mad when you read all that and your gonna say " you fucking idiot, that’s not ethnic cleansing" and I’m gonna point out the word arguably.

          The point here is that you give America a biiiiiiiig pass on its many crimes. But China, a place you know nothing about outside of American sources gets the opposite of a pass. Have you considered that maybe our government, who calls China our mortal enemy, embellished some things? For our entire lives? Just something to consider.

          And before you go off on “YOUR JUST EXCUSING CHINA”, I am not. I am pointing out a hypocrisy. China has and is doing a lot of fucked up things. But information that is good is hard to find in the sea of state sponsored lies

            You can investigate America. Take pictures. Report. China is a black hole of authoritarian censorship. Go talk about tiananmen square and see what happens. You can talk freely about Americas problems .
