        Do you agree that the CCP was responsible for thousands of deaths during the Tiananmen Square massacre? Do you agree that China is committing genocide against the Uyghurs?

        If you agree, think you might agree, or don’t know what the fuck I’m talking about, you shouldn’t be on lemmy.ml

          Truthfully, if anyone can give an independent first hand report about the treatment of Uyghurs in China (that is not coming from propaganda vehicles like the Victims of Communism Foundation), I would be most interested.

          No, I am not saying this in rebuttal to anything.

              Yes. Though serious human rights violations are not the same as genocide and concentrations camps, as both the above poster and Victims of Communism Foundation wants us to believe.

              That means in no way that those violations are acceptable.

                And, likewise, the UN stating that serious human rights violations occurred is not the same as them all saying they aren’t committing genocide

                  No, but I am not the one making statements. I only asked for sources that supported those made by others.
