I would really rather that these were actual examples, and not conspiracy theories. We all have our own unsubstantiated ideas about what shadowy no-gooders are doing, but I'd rather hear about things that are actually happening.

In your opinion. Most of the world has a different opinion. I wont bother responding to your alternate account. Seriously, using two accounts to barrack a differing opinion, sigh.

You state a lot of BS while providing absolutely no evidence to give it any credit, other than your bias towards the west. What links does this guy have to "wired" or the many other media sources that show exactly what is going on in China.

Almost all of the Muslim world including US allies share my opinion actually:)

I do think it is funny that you think I have an alt just to tell you you have shitty takes twice. Two people just disagreed with you enough to comment.

The wired article you shared literally relies on Zenz to cite many of its claims, as do basically all media sources who previously claimed it was happening.

I'm guessing you have a working brain, learn basic research literacy.

So yet again absolutely nothing to substantiate your point of view. GL with your life.
