I truely can't believe the most contentious and contested aspect out of the 1000+ datapoints of human rights abuse we managed to map with the Xinjiang Data Project, the one that almost every tankie troll has been latching onto as a gotchya, is a location we never said was a camp.
I guess that speaks to the quality of the data, of 380+ camps, nearly 1,000 cultural sites (about 2/3 of which have been demolished or damaged), the only fault that people are trying to pick, is by 'disproving' a school that we never said was anything but a school.
It's also astounding that this aboslute torrent of abuse (you should see my mentions, every couple of seconds someone with a hammer-and-sickle name calls me a nazi), is stemming from misinformation by a professor at an Australian university. Who was told of his error hours ago
After being told of his mistake he has blatently refused to offer any clarification or correction to the misinformation that is causing this abuse.
Of course, this concern with out data and literally every single other disputed datapoint I've seen from dozens of mostly bad-faith actors, is addressed in this thread.

It was my mistake to assume that an academic was acting in any better faith than anonymous trolls and would be interested in dicussing his concerns and misunderstandings. No, he soley seems interested in piling on mischaracterisation and false accusations.
