China: Travel for Uyghurs Heavily Restricted To Control Xinjiang Population, Human Rights Watch Says in c/globalnews@lemmy.zip
[–] Jin008@lemmygrad.ml -2 points 5 hours ago

Alot of the time the west uses Adrian Zenz (who you can read his Wikipedia page on why he is not trustworthy and is doubted even among European academic circles)

Here’s some reading and videos about the Uyghur stuff:

Yes, because Palestine is an undeniable issue that is as obvious as gravity, whereas this Uyghur stuff isn't. Them reporting on a true genocide doesn't stop them from being a western mouthpiece to parrot propaganda against their enemies.

But Palestine has heaps of evidence, this does not. Only anecdotes from questionable sources. They keep harping on about this to try to foment dissent and tear China apart.

Yea, I am. There used to be more controls about this stuff, but that was because China literally had lots of bombings from these Islamic fundamentalist groups. You can't expect them to just let this stuff go and not have anything done.

That is not to say they could have done better and I'm not critical, but China has taken the best approach to this (which the Islamic Cooperation Community supported) which is re-education and re-integration with society.

They just continue to harp on these points with anecdotal evidence and no concrete sources. It is bullshit.

This stuff is obviously bullshit, and funded by the west. Decrying China for being anti-muslim and putting people into "concentration camps", while simultaneously supporting the illegal settler colonial operation in Palestine

You really don't think that over time even Americans will start to wake up? I know their track record is less than abyssmal but still I would like to hold out some hope

Could you elaborate on your third point?

Trump's Gameplan (lemmygrad.ml)
 

As Trump is gonna put his insane tariffs in place, what do you guys think is the goal here? Because I fear that he is playing 4D chess but making it look like he is playing checkers, and if his tariffs are out into place it'll undoubtedly anger and radicalise lots of Americans especially, and just cause a general shitshow for approval ratings and threaten the domestic safety of capital. Thoughts?

IN 2024, China surpassed a goal, six years early, of having 1,200 gigawatts from renewables by 2030 in c/futurology@futurology.today
If you ever wondered, the centrist leader of the opposition in Israel is also a lunatic. in c/shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Don't give in to the doomerism comrades, it must be socialism not barbarism.

Yea make more of this kind of stupid shit instead of spending resources on green energy or disease prevention. Acting like it isn't the West that's stoking all the fires of war across the world, or not partially to blame.

Propaganda/ Agitprop on Xiaohongshu/ Rednote (lemmygrad.ml)
 

As most of you know the US is probably gonna ban TikTok, and because of that many Americans are moving to China's homegrown equivalent of Instagram: Xiaohongshu (literally: little red book)/ Rednote.

I think this is a good opportunity for us as communists to seize, because unlike TikTok, Xiaohongshu is one app for both China and the rest of the world. Thus it's dominated by Mainland Chinese posters showing their lives, hobbies, etc, which are very similar (in terms of hobbies) or better (in terms of living conditions) than Americans, whereas that wouldn't have been the case on TikTok as China and the rest of the world have separate apps.

For many already disillusioned Americans who may have had a negative view towards China (which is most Americans), this would shatter the illusion for some and potentially open their eyes to the success of socialism, and an alternative to the current capitalist system; spurring them on to radicalization.

Therefore I think that we should seize on this moment to jump on the bandwagon in order to educate Americans or just to show what China is really like. Especially because after a while the US will probably want to ban this app too. So there may not be a lot of time. What do you guys think?

Pursual of higher studies (lemmygrad.ml)
 

Hi, I am a young student and am going on to university soon. I am interested in helping causes and organisations like unions and such for a profession. I thought of doing political science, but that's not very agreeable to my parents. So I thought of doing economics however I'm not sure how employable a pure economics degree is and whether or not I can stomache the neoliberal economics. If anyone could provide some of your own experiences and help me I would appreciate it.
