I looked and didn’t see it, I could be missing something

I wish I could have seen this comment before it got yoinked out of existence. I’m sure it would have been pretty funny!

Xinjiang is above the national average for Chinese birthrates : https://www.statista.com/statistics/1179703/china-birth-rate-by-region-province/ All of China’s birthrates have been low, and when there was a limit on how many Children people in China could have, Xinjiang and all ethnic minorities were exempt from the policy. Additionally, it makes sense that as education in general, sexual educational specifically, and contraceptive access grows, birth rates will lower. More educated people everyone on Earth have less kids and have them later. People who had never had access to contraceptives and start to use them will suddenly not get pregnant.

This is not evidence of a cultural genocide, it is evidence of birthrates going down at a slower pace than the rest of the people in the country they live in. China actually has a crisis of wanting more people to have kids than they are having. South Korea and Japan are having similar issues to China in this regard, it is not a unique thing in the region for birth rates to be falling. For Uyghurs to specifically have higher than average birthrates, it really shows that there is no way you could argue there is statistically significant evidence that Uyghurs are being denied the ability to have kids.

Now, can you name a single element of Uyghur culture that is being repressed? You tried with kids in general, which isn’t an element of Uyghur culture anyway so doesn’t really make since for your claim of a cultural genocide, but that has been proven to be false. Aside from your source being the literal governments of China’s enemies and the weapons manufacturers who want to profit off war with China, the entire premise is proven to be false by the data. So what else you got?

edit: never mind you got banned, I guess you really can’t name a single element

Xinjiang has hundreds of millions of tourists every year. So you’re saying that the hundreds of millions of people who pass through Xinjiang see the ten million Uighurs living there, running the majority of businesses, residing in the majority of houses, clearly speaking a different language which is written on every sign, going to the 24,000 mosques in Xinjiang, those ten million people are actors, pretending to be Uighurs, but have actually been brainwashed into performing Uighurness for the hundreds of millions of tourists while personally no longer desiring to follow the cultural standards they have been forced to reject? Am I getting that right?

Name a single element of Uyghur culture and provide evidence it is somehow discouraged

I don’t blame the father for not choosing a better target but it would have been great to go Luigi mode instead of just off a retired cop who wont be actively abusing citizens as much as the majority of other cops. He was obviously breaking down and wouldn’t have had capacity to plan such a thing but if you are going to potentially end your life in such a way there are more impactful ways to do it

The image generator to 3D model to animation pipeline isn’t too bad. If you’re not a great visual artist, 3D modeler, or animator you can get out pretty decent results on your own that would normally take teams of multiple people dozens of hours after years of training

Probably couldn’t even find a source to back that one up

Again, why do other people need to provide sources for your spurious claims? You are asserting something and cannot find any evidence to support it, if you had a spine you would then admit you don’t know what you are talking about and at the very least be open to other possibilities.

The sources of these pieces are literally the Ukrainian government itself. The journalists reporting based on these sources work for some of the richest people on the planet. If you think RT isn’t reputable for being Russian state media, you cannot seriously assert that The Ukranian government and the private mouthpieces of billionaires are even slightly more reputable. Ukraine especially has been known widely for making shit up, even NATOids admit this.

Or how about that putin is the aggressor as well and attacked under a pretext of training and then a ‘special operation’?

this is a really misinformed and reductive understanding of the situation. this is a conflict that has been happening since 2014, and arguably much longer if you consider that Ukraine is being used as a proxy by NATO which was literally founded to be an aggressor against the Russians and their allies before most of us were born.

Your response to someone asking for a source to your claim is to ask them for a source to your claim?

The alternative is that more Ukrainians die which has already destroyed their economy for at least a generation and will only get worse. A country with only elderly people and disabled people won’t be a country very long

Having a chance of winning means you are on the right, that’s the whole thing

He’s Putin me on!

Signal was made in the US and paid for with US funding though?

Hasn’t he always seemed like exactly this type of guy?

The idea that this clock didn’t run out long ago is an utterly ghoulish retcon of history
