    I don’t suppose you’d see how you’re sampling from a very biased set?

    There’s no arguing that, at some point, Xinjiang’s per-capita prison rate was roughly on par with that of Black Americans. I’m not going to deny that. It’s a clear indicator of racial prejudice and discrimination. Are they still alive? Yes. Do they still have a unique and distinctly non-Han culture? Yes. Is that culture celebrated in the most viewed televised event in the world? Also, yes.

    I’m not going to pretend that there’s no racism in China, but let’s not make mountains out of molehills when there’s a real, tangible, documented genocide going on that the West completely ignores when Israel uses the same justification of “terrorism.”
