Thing is: kinda? With Palestine you were able to find new footage every day of innocents being exterminated, there's never been even remotely anything compared to that in Xinjiang

Is it possible that the travel bloggers simply didn't go to the concentration camps?

[–] davel@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 days ago

How are they going to go to concentration camps that don’t exist?

Everyone in China has a smartphone, as you probably known people pay 90% of the time using QR codes with WeChat or Alipay. It's not believable that there isn't footage of the "horrendous concentration camps" plastered all over western media, if there was any footage, we'd be exposed to it nonstop

Everyone in america has a camera I wonder why there arnt any pictures from inside area 51?

Did you come up with that on your own?

[–] AES_Enjoyer@reddthat.com 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

People don't claim that they forcibly placed 1 million Americans in Area 51 though

When they let the travel bloggers in we'll know =P You'd have to be impossibly naive to think the government wouldn't beat to death anyone who photographed the concentration camps...

China's government isn't exactly known for beating people to death. The cops murdering a given ethnicity at astonishing rates is an american thing.

You see what you're doning though? You're starting from the assumption that the Chinese government is murderous and genocidal, and any evidence presented to you simply can be disregarded.
