    The picture proving the existence of uyghur concentration camps?

    not more important than the camps themselves, but an important piece of evidence.

      Are you trolling? We have asked repeatedly and you provide zero arguments that the picture is from a spooky concentration camp. Produce the evidence that conditions in that prison are worse than USian prisons.

      Oh, and the US incarcerates 6 times as many people per capita as China, and institutes wideapread slave prison labor. Do you boycott the US?

      Is it more important than all of the evidence that shows they no longer exist and were greatly exaggerated (most charitable description).

      Follow up, how does this compare to all the evidence that America is currently doing what they accused China of doing with thoroughly debunked claims.

      The picture only proves literally that those people posed in front of a camera in that way. It’s probably legit and not staged, though! That’s fair.

      But we still don’t know anything about it. Was it taken in china? Japan? America? Vatican city? Who knows!

      Is the individual in the picture a peaceful Uyghur who is going to be killed and their organs harvested? Are they a murderer or other violent criminal? Are they a han man who was taking bribes? A Japanese woman who poisoned her husband? A refugee who fled to America and is now being deported for Failure To Be White? Again, we don’t know!

      How about the facility - is it a concentration camp in china? Is it an American prison or ICE detention centre? Maybe a Filipino gaol? Guantanamo bay? Who could say!

      You can’t - you apparently got this from Adrian Zenz, a far right ghoul who says woman shouldn’t have the vote and that he was sent by god to destroy china - not someone particularly trustworthy.

      You may take his claims seriously but it’s ridiculous to suggest other people should. You keep claiming you’ve shown evidence but what it amounts to is… Nothing. Nothing that can be proven to have any veracity, nothing that comes from a trustworthy source.

      Finally there’s something incredibly racist in the claim that there’s a huge campaign of systematic violence against Uyghurs in Xinjiang, yet there are no refugee camps in neighbouring countries with large Uyghur populations and no outbreaks of violence. You seem to think that, for some reason, the Uyghur people are just… Taking it. They are neither fighting back nor fleeing. I also love how somehow the Muslim nations who sent in inspectors are just… Lying. Nope, can’t possibly listen to the brown people. Not when there’s a bunch of good ol’ boys telling you The Truth!

      I mean, look at this. You have a completely anonymous photo that could be of anyone, anywhere, doing anything… And that’s more convincing evidence than the complete lack of any kind of organised resistance to a supposed genocide that, if it were happening, would make Gaza look like a schoolyard scuffle. Come. On.
