In regards to the whole xinjiang thing, are you suggesting that the entire religious and ethnic cleansing happening is false because western sources have shed light on it? Believing everything they said is obviously dumb, and of course they have an agenda, however the evidence from the reporte of abuse, to satellite images of tearing down mosques, to witnesses that fled to tell their stories all are fake because western media has reported on it? Wouldn't you think they would make it more known as there is clear animosity between them and China?

O you who have believed, if there comes to you a disobedient one with information, investigate, lest you harm a people out of ignorance and become, over what you have done, regretful.
-Surah Al-Hujurat 49:6
That is my position.
"all are fake because western media has reported on it" would be an exaggeration and would not be an accurate representation of my view and it would be a strawman argument to falsely attribute it to me and attack me on that basis.
If anybody watches that video in the Xinjiang thread I made, that video clearly shows things that contradict Western claims. But people aren't doing the homework, they're not doing the research. For example, how many of the people who have criticized me have actually read The Governance of China by Xi Jinping and actually examined and his ideology?
I think people have attacked me without actually having done the homework and without, for instance, having watched the video in the Xinjiang thread.
My thinking is different in part because I've done some of the homework and many haven't. People rush to make a judgement on the issue without having studied it thoroughly.
For example, pretty much everybody in the West has heard the Western side but many of the people have only heard one side rather than both and studied the two in comparison.
Anyways- what I believe is this- the genocide claim is false. I think what is actually happening is that they have a beard and hijab ban. I don't like it, I don't agree with it but I also think an anti-China campaign would be a mistake. Among countries, China is the biggest counter to Western imperialism. A successful anti-China campaign would enormously strengthen Western imperialism and be more harmful than beneficial.
