There is little argument other than whataboutism and ‘I have a black friend’ here. I am aware it’s not a popular view on lemmy.ml, but these multiple things can be true. Western countries can totally be anti Chinese, other Muslim countries can totally be racist to other Muslim’s of the ‘wrong race’ just as much as a Christian. It does not change what is occurring in the xinjiang region. An individual can assess the actions and history of an organization without being themselves group into another organization they may or may not belong or support.
Uyghur are Turkic and there are many Turkic countries the most significant is Turkiye. You are clearly clueless. You would rather believe that Turkic and Muslim peoples are racist to the Uyghurs rather than accept you have been misled.
So Muslims are not racist to Palestinians, Rohingya, Kashmiris, Chechens, Afghans, Bosnians, etc… but only to the Uyghurs. It is far simpler to accept and believe that westerners just want to pit Muslims against Chinese. Westerners kill us and displace us by the millions, but we should fear China?
To be fair, the military junta in Egypt are cooperating heavily with Israel in it's genocidal efforts due to geopolitical reasons.
I wish more Arab governments were like Yemen's. Too many corrupt collaborators.
