How is this surprising?
Some months back the pentagon sent out a a document stating that american society needs to be reshaped for the upcoming great power competition between america, russia, and china. And that although terrorism still be a problem, they are going to also focus on rising powers who would threaten the west
You realize those trot bastards at the WSWS are right.
WW3 is coming
So, essentially, he's a Chinese Bill Browder?
Do you think this onslaught of Uighur coverage will lead to some Magnitsky Act aimed against China? I'm thinking that this is where this is leading.
Revolutionary defeatism is not variable option then only one side has revolutionary potential.
This is why security in Xinjiang is so strict, to avoid this kind of thing. Any insurgency would have to have a network of supporters in the population, and the Chinese government will not allow this to be established.
I think something like that. Guo was also mixed up with Tony Blair and the Abu Dhabi royal family which helped him move money out of China.
look, this is how you destroy china
1. find the top uigher
2. wisk him away to a covert site
3. train him in everything
4. take him to Afghanistan and have him and his people form an alliance with the taliban
5. have them draw up a plan to commit a Chinese 9/11
6. something devastating, something humiliating, something the state media will not be able to cover up
7. have the top uigher send out a video saying "nannananana you can catch me, oh whats that, you want revenge, im in afghinstan nigga, guess what, its not over, im going to keep attacking you and you cant do anything about it"
8. rile them up real good so that the nationalists are demanding a war then wait till they invade looking for the guy (he isnt there) and have some gladio b taliban memebers attack the han and declare china the new enemy who are communist kaffir that want to kill islam
9. bing bang boom, america pulls out, chinks pull in. i love it when a plane comes together
having had much contact with han chinese over the years, even coming close to marrying one and having been to china a few times, i genuinely believe a lot of the accounts by the uyghurs. im not one to go all Zig Forums but look at this shit:
even if you support china's hare-brained goals of assimilating all uyghurs, do you think that this is the right way to do it? in the end you will get an even stronger seperatist movement, plus you will surely get even more religious fundamentalists willing to fight for their people. and additionally, you will have needlessly added another pretext for western powers to criticize you and boycott you.
repression feeds reaction. this has been going overboard. xi is growing paranoid because the contradictions of state capitalism have been growing stronger and stronger. they are cracking down on young marxists, they are cracking down on uyghurs, and it will only get worse from here on out. they are losing their grip.
you are utterly retarded if you defend this bullshit. even claiming that china is socialist is borderline retarded in the first place (although i can see why one would say that), but going out of your way to defend contraproductive xenophobic identity politics?
im going to lol if the cia starts funding the actual communists just to wreak havoc upon the state capitalists and leftypol and chicoms defend xi.
I mean, the perfect storm could be brewed here. Repressed neo maoists and represses uighers being funded by the CIA to fuck shit up and make a million tieanmen squares happen
