Cowbee@lemmy.ml 1 week agoAmong communists, a popular saying is “no investigation, no right to speak.” If you have only surface-level knowledge of a subject, then anything you contribute to broader conversation on said subject just contributes to the miasma of misinfirmation and miscommunication. Personally restricting yourself from speaking authoritatively on subjects you don’t really know or understand greatly enhances the types of conversations you can have, and deepens understanding.
I personally apply this principle as best I can to myself, and I suggest you do the same. Here’s a good resource compilation for studying Xinjiang and the situation the Uyghur people are actually in in China, including the background leading up to the correction programs, the allegations of genocide from the west, as well as the only evidence coming from one person named Adrian Zenz, a christian nationalist that hasn’t been to China and believes it is his duty from God to punish China. This Adrian Zenz is a member of the US-propaganda outlet “Victims of Communism.”
Overall, I hope this helps a bit.
