If you look into it, most of the indpendent experts are one right wing crank, Adrian Zenz, who is 100% funded by the UK State-Owned BBC and an American intelligence cutout organization called the NED. He's a far-right Christian Zionist who doesn't speak a word of Mandarin. You should be happy that there's no genocide in Xinjiang (even Zenz has never claimed this), mad that your tax dollars likely went to fund his bogus cause, and furious that those same tax dollars are also being used to conduct a real genocide in Gaza.

If Gaza hasn't shown you that Uyghur Genocide was a crackpot evangelical conspiracy theory cooked up in a Langley basement then nothing will

China is a force for good and Russia is the harm reduction candidate vs the US.

It was commonplace among leftists to oppose US military hegemony, NATO, and Raytheon pre-2022, even for relatively lib leaning spaces. This position became basically unacceptable if not bannable in so many left leaning spaces within a matter of months, which should scare you a lot more than the existence of one community where the sentiment has remained the same.

Holy shit is this a bit? Do people on here really still believe in a neutral or unbiased press? Shouldn't virtually every event from the Iraq war onward have already disillusioned you of that?

Exempt from a poem written about the Gulf War in 1991:

Now with noonday headlights in Kuwait and the burial of the blackened in Baghdad let them remember, all those who celebrate, that their good news is someone else's bad or the light will never dawn on poor Mankind.

China is ruled by a military dictatorship, and under that form of government the people have 0 rights and 0 say in any government policy

Not even the most devoted ideologue for the US state department would claim something this ludicrous. How do "leftists" arrive at this conclusion?

Reddit is a disinfo network staffed and mediated by intelligence and defense consultants. The accusation that anyone who disagrees with the narrow set of acceptable ideology allowed on reddit is a paid shill is an intended side effect of routine exposure to it.

That's fine but why are they banning socialist parties, integrating fascist paramilitaries into the army, and privatizing land? That all seems a little familiar.

probably kidnapping and stringing up Eichmann in the 60's

Taiwan has a limited status in some international organizations under the name "Chinese Taipei" (this name greatly angers Taiwanese ultranationalists so I use it whenever possible), but the UN recognizes it as part of China.

There's a video of the UN voting on the PRC's membership to the exclusion of Taiwan, the entire room laughs when America casts its vote and there's an interview somewhere with a RoC diplomat whining about their "true democracy and freedom" despite the RoC being a one-party white terror regime.

Assuming good faith, the liberal notion that the UNSC in this case is acting out of a neutral concern about nuclear weapons is completely contradicted by the reality that similar restrictions aren't placed on Israel.

Israel has an illegal arsenal of nuclear arms and a stated policy of massive retaliation. Its nuclear arms are also in violation of the NPT which is cited in your UN source repeatedly. It is also an American proxy state, established through terrorism and expanded through racial violence and settler colonialism. Its nuclear arsenal exists to safeguard the continued expansion of this racial violence, genocide and apartheid.

The US has historically used intimidation and coercion to manipulate the UNSC against its geopolitical enemies, and this is no exception. The US waged a genocidal war against the DPRK during the 1950s, which is still technically ongoing. The war effort not only involved massive bombings of civilian infrastructure, but also assistance to the RoK government, staffed by myriad Japanese collaborators, in murdering anyone suspected of sympathy with the DPRK.

Pleass ask yourself why the DPRK is subject to a legally binding UNSC resolution, while Israel gets a gentle suggestion from the UNGA to pwetty pwease disarm for the exact same crime, though with drastically different motives.
