Libs be like "this is a totally organic movement with broad local support"

Take a moment to imagine the absolutely demonic levels of McCarthyism that would be unleashed if it was discovered that BLM or the Green Party were headquartered in Beijing.

Don't forget they also love Israel. Xinjiang avoided the fate of Gaza and all the people complaining about China being "heavy handed" there should just shut up.

Poor analogy. The US kills muslim people like they were rats. The secretary of offense is covered in tattoos glorifying the Medieval crusades and wrote a book titled "American Crusade" explaining the US is in a "holy war" agains muslims and China.

So "East Turkestan government in exile" is headquartered in the capital of the empire that is is in a bloodthirsthy fanatical war against muslims. This empire also has "must destroy China" as its foreign policy absolute priority.

Therefore, the corret analogy would be a separatist Jewish movement that wanted to take away a critical part of the USSR. And it is funded and headquartered in Nazi Germany. Who would believe them? The same people who believe the US is motivated by love of Muslims and only reluctantly funds a separatist movement to take away a critical part of China.
