  The UN inspection committee could not find evidence to support your claims.

  Why are you asserting the existence of a genocide in Xinjiang while endorsing the engineered famine across the border in Afghanistan?

    I love how almost none of this discussion is about nuclear power or thorium and just about people wanting to feel morally correct about something and snarling back and forth at each other accusing the other of supporting genocide.

    Our species is so cooked. We must be the first species to evolve with our heads up our own asses.

      I’m posed to snarl because I’ve seen this so many times before, as a justification to invade and destroy advanced industrial states that don’t bend the knee to the US State Department.

      The reason you get thorium reactors out of China and Mars landers out of India comes down to two words “Peace Dividend”.

      Our species is so cooked.

      There’s a brighter future on the horizon. But you don’t get there by taking Marco Rubio at face value.
