Comment on Australian police beat an opposition politician so badly that she might lose an eye -- simply for being at an anti-genocide protest.

  Genocide doesnt require direct killing. Forced sterilization and destruction of cultural identity is also genocide.

  From Wikipedia:

  “the destruction of a nation or of an ethnic group” by means such as “the disintegration of [its] political and social institutions, of [its] culture, language, national feelings, religion, and [its] economic existence”.

    Is your proof from Adrian Zenz? Hasn’t it been proven that he manipulated the data on his research and lied repeatedly?

      To deny that is to deny your own ability to see, read and think.

      So you admit to not being able to do any of those three?

        I merely asked whether your source is Adrian Zenz and your immediate reaction is to insult and belittle. I’m sorry but I’m just a nobody with no interest on genocide, so I haven’t spent hours researching the subject. I guess that makes me a complete idiot who is unable to see, read or think.

      What do you mean by prove? This person just copy and pasted the definition.

        And there is plenty of documented proof of that.

        They mentioned there’s plenty of documented proof, so I asked whether it’s from Adrian Zenz.

  If one of them tries to walk out, do they just let them?

  Watched an interesting take from one of the Chinese politician or whatever they are called there. He was blaming the US imperial forces causing turmoil in Afghanistan which leaked into the Chinese side and fumed some of the locals now wanting to split from China and wanting their own nation. Dude said their leader is an american citizen. So I guess china has been detaining those people? Who knows.

    That seems to be the official take according to the CCP, the internment camps are used to re-educate extremists.
