The Biden administration is suggesting the possibility that new penalties could be put in place if the Chinese makers of electric vehicles try to move their production to Mexico to avoid newly announced import taxes.

    China segregates the Uyghurs in internment camps where they are abused, raped, and tortured and all under constant video surveillance. There have been reports of sterilization as well. The only way out is through forced social integration.

    China has committed genocide in the form of cultural cleansing of Tibetans since the 1950s. It’s a peaceful nation, primarily composed of Buddhists. That’s what all those “Free Tibet” bumper stickers are all about.

    The behavior is not new, so it doesn’t get the attention it deserves.

      lmao that article cites Adrien Zenz and a guy who works for the department of defense.

      Anyone can just go to Xinjiang, there’s not even travel restrictions.

      Regarding Tibet, it was a slave-owning theocracy before the 50s. Your “cultural cleansing” is the liberation of countless peasants at the expense of the former ruling lamas.

      If the people wanted their masters back, they wouldn’t have lynched the lamas the CIA trained and armed and air-dropped into Tibet in the late 50s (kinda like Bay of Pigs, but dumber).

      But once again, they’re far more able to practice their culture than the indigenous people in America. I don’t see any air force bases or pipelines poisoning the aquifers in Tibet like you see today, right now, in indigenous communities in America. I don’t see Sioux people learning primarily in their native languages in public schools in America. They do in Tibet though.

      Why is it that you cry endless tears about the breaking of the slave system and teaching mandarin as a second language on the other side of the planet, while an actual, ongoing genocide of native Americans continues right in front of you?

        Here are some more for you, from the US Holocaust Museum, World Without Genocide, the BBC, and John Oliver to lighten the somber mood.

        The ethnic cleansing agenda in the occupation of Tibet by the PRC has been recognized worldwide, as well as by the UN, who will not intervene due to Tibet’s status under international law. Just read up on it.

        The only place you’ll probably have trouble finding information on these atrocities is TikTok. Something tells me the algorithm will fail to promote the content.
