      Hot take:

      The US has committed horrifying war crimes and crimes against humanity against Muslims and continues to do so.

      And so does China

      Its always fascinating to see the war between Nazis and Tankies fight over which imperial power is based, rather than demonstrating a working frontal lobe and damning both for their crimes.

          The only “evidence” of this comes from the empire and is demonstrably false

              Idk man, this page has over 401 citations from various sources.

              https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Uyghurs_in_China?wprov=sfla1

              Edit: This also has a lot of citations ns from various sources too.

              Genocide is bad. If your ideology prevents you from agreeing with that statement, you are a monster.

                  Genocide IS bad, but the “muslim genocide” in China is nothing but a CIA op, as usual

                      (Mass dislikes time!)

                      Yes, the US does evil shit in the Middle East. Killing brown-skinned practitioners of the other Abrahamic religion overseas is an American tradition.

                      That still doesn’t change the fact that China is persecuting Uyghurs in the Xinjiang province.

                      You can’t shit-talk one authoritarian state and cheer on another.

                              “Authoritarian state” is a bullshit category. Authoritarian states are just states insufficiently subservient to Washington. It’s no more or less coherent than “terrorist state,” which the US uses in the same way.

                              “Authoritarianism” is the contemporary word for “totalitarianism,” which is just an erudite-seming term for horseshoe theory, which is horseshit. Previously:

                              • ‘Horseshoe theory’ is nonsense – the far right and far left have little in common
                              • https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horseshoe_theory#Academic_studies_and_criticism
                              • Funny thing about Hannah Arendt’s construction of “totalitarianism”: She came from a bourgeois family and so was unsurprisingly anti-communist, and she was funded & promoted by the CIA.
                                Imperialist Propaganda and the Ideology of the Western Left Intelligentsia: From Anticommunism and Identity Politics to Democratic Illusions and Fascism
                                One of the centerpieces of the cultural cold war was the Congress for Cultural Freedom (CCF), which was revealed in 1966 to be a CIA front. Hugh Wilford, who has researched the topic extensively, described the CCF as nothing short of one of the largest patrons of art and culture in the history of the world. Established in 1950, it promoted on the international scene the work of collaborationist academics such as Raymond Aron and Hannah Arendt over and against their Marxian rivals, including the likes of Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir.

                            Valid meme but hopefully it doesn’t minimize the plight of Uyghurs in peoples minds.
