Muslims living in China disagree with you as many testimonies in the videos I linked show. And all the Muslim countries disagree with you as well as do Muslims who have traveled to Xinjiang from these countries.

Your articles did not answer the simple question: why do all the Mosques suddenly look like Han temples? Please do not address any other point except the mosque exterior change.

There are over 24,400 mosques in China, and pretty sure vast majority of them do not in fact look like Han temples. I don’t know what the actual reason for change in the look of the mosques FT chose to parade is, but there isn’t even a serious suggestion that it’s representative of any sort of a general trend. It’s incredibly disappointing that somebody would accept very obvious propaganda completely uncritically.

that would be hilarious

Although, I doubt he even cares what they think. His constituents are the financial capitalists whose interests he represents.

Market manipulation is the point. Every time he makes a statement the market reacts which allows people who are in on it to make money hand over fist.

Yes, the source very much does matter because sources can distort the truth, lie by omission, and create a narrative that’s completely at odds with reality. Contrast this with reporting from an actual Muslim country https://www.thejakartapost.com/academia/2018/09/25/xinjiang-what-a-wonderful-place.html

Even western media reports on occasion that Xinjiang imams defend China against U.S. criticism

And of course, all the Muslim majority countries have been supporting China against western allegations

Here’s another report from Italy of all places https://idi-international.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/New-Report.pdf

Here’s what a reporter from Pakistan who actually visited Xinjiang had to say https://dailytimes.com.pk/723317/exposing-the-occidents-baseless-lies-about-xinjiang/

Here are some very different videos of Uyghurs for you https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkbOIKUddMBtp0_xEFqn4zey48kkgJq5w

The political angle around the narrative around Xinjiang is very transparent. For example, here’s George Bush’s chief of staff openly saying that US wants to destabilize the region. An ex-CIA operative details US operations radicalizing and training terrorists in the region in this book. Here’s an excerpt:

US has been stoking terrorism in the region while they’ve been running a propaganda campaign against China in the west. In fact, US even classified Uyghur separatists as a terrorist group at one point https://www.mintpressnews.com/us-was-at-war-uyghur-terrorists-now-claims-etim-doesnt-exist/276916/

Here’s an interview with a son of imam killed in Xinjiang https://news.cgtn.com/news/2020-06-19/Son-of-imam-assassinated-in-Kashgar-s-2014-mosque-attack-speaks-out-RqNiyrcRuo/index.html

I would totally watch this.

Ah yes, the fall of USSR when millions of people had their lives ruined of course would be the day somebody like you would celebrate.

Imagine being so historically ignorant as to try and draw comparisons between the two.

There was literally no scenario where Russia could possibly lose this war. Anybody who has an even minimally functioning brain understood this long before the war began.

What’s happening now is very promising, Burkina Faso, Niger, and Mali now have an alliance and they’re getting support from Russia and China. Meanwhile, the US and Europe are visibly pulling back from Africa having depleted much of their resources in their proxy war with Russia.

Yeah, but have you considered that China is genociding deserts and the fossil fuel industry!

Funny there was not a single brain cell engaged in writing the parent comment.

But I’m sure thats just coincidence, right guys 🙃

They gave moon rocks to five other countries as well.

How can you even trust a source where tiny morsels of actual content aren’t obscured by layers of ads.

We are so lucky to live in the enlightened west where we have so much free and unbiased media available to us unlike those oriental savages.

this comment reminds me of how people were talking about Chinese EVs a few years ago, and here you go https://www.trendforce.com/news/2025/03/10/news-chinas-homegrown-euv-machines-rumored-for-q3-trial-production-spelling-trouble-for-asml/

This is what happens when underdeveloped critical faculties are subjected to sustained saturation of propaganda. 👆

I very much agree with all that. The fear of automation is a symptom of a system that prioritizes profit over people. In a rational, equitable society, automation would be celebrated as a tool to reduce human suffering and enhance quality of life. Yet, under capitalism, it becomes a source of anxiety and inequality.
