Skinner is like the flatearthers... "its a conspiracy among ~several million people and several nations, they're just very good at keeping the facts to themselves"

You forgot to condemn the Organization for Islamic Cooperation and most Turkic and Muslim countries for their silence on the Uyghur genocide. Muslims don’t care for one another like the West cares for them. They only pretend to care about Palestinians because they are antisemitic.

The brave people at VOA were quick to condemn them.

/s in case it isn’t obvious

If you googled the OIC report on Uyghur after they visited Xinjiang you will only get results for western outlets condemning it. It is clear who is using censorship to control the narrative https://www.google.com/search?q=oic+uyghur+repprt&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari

Honest question- are there mass killings as well? I did not follow this topic for a while, but I thought it is only mass ~~incarceration~~ reeducation campaign.

Debated, but the things you mentioned qualify as genocide too because they also (slowly) destroy an ethnic group.

As far as I can tell just forced abortions and sterilization. It’s difficult to discern fact from propaganda.

Before the national security law SCMP was often trustworthy.

SCMP always sided with China for the more pressing matters
