When you look at the how Tibetans in India do mob-rule democracy from their recent "Take her beauty pageant crown away" campaign, it's important to remember the other values they also hope to export. Some were unfortunately radicalised by them, it's the point of their US funding
A friend born into the overseas Tibetan exile community came to China. He told me that many of these guys never even tried to get a Chinese visa & just assume they cant. However, they do undergo more detailed background checks because of this legitimate religious extremism issue
The US isn't funding friendly guerillas here. The US' true goals, motives & ethics are the same as always been. If ever they accomplish their mission, Tibet will look like any of the other countries the US destroyed, even the Dalail Lama's brother agrees

Yes, absolutely. If any 10 year old child has grown up an environment where they believe they should be ready to sacrifice their life for a living spiritual leader like this, 100% I would without hesitation call this child abuse.
The Children of The Peoples Temple believed the same too. Image
If you wanna see what the 16 year old child in this tragic story looked like when he was 10 years old, look no further than the video of the 10 year old I posted in the first tweet. The world needs to stop romanticizing this cult immediately and demand the end of this child abuse ImageImageImage

Recommend this book @SameeraKhan. It's got a typical anti-China bias & even praises the White Helmets, but the systems it describes are 100% identical what you're experiencing. Seeing a professional paid troll farm in action on your timeline has been absolutely fascinating! Image
For anyone interested in seeing this troll farm in action, look at the replies to this tweet, look at their language, look at their follower counts and registration dates. You can almost pinpoint when their agency got their "Tibetan" cause contract signed

There are real people who get sucked into the narrative too, that's one of the main goals of these troll farms after all, to shift conversations and create momentum. This is one of my favorites, the EXACT same fake newspaper generator used, different levels of thought applied. Image

Visited Tibet Sakya Middle School, the most interesting thing I learnt, other than Han students MUST also learn Tibetan here, is that these kids make hula hooping look way easier than it really is at 4300m.

Some awesome Tibetan music by one of the classes.

When you step back from your lifetime of indoctrination & think for yourself, if you begin to ask questions half as critical as this, watch the narratives you once believed in quickly crumble. Thats of course unless you deliberately refuse to as it's something you WANT to believe
ASPI has many staffers acting as activists online, and their military industrial complex backers have profited greatly from the anti-China rhetoric this year. For the rest of you who are volunteer cold war drum beating tools. Shame on you.

Whether you deliberately have a personal vendetta against China, or if you're a racist, or maybe you're simply legitimately ignorant, it's people like you who allow weak WMD-like stories to excuse killing millions of Muslims while pretending to care about them a few years later.

The thing I have a really difficult thing understating is, if these journalists really believe their narrative, why engage in this kind of dishonesty

Hear Isobel brush over/totally ignore the the data issues, and compare the full recording to her article

The article was supposed to find out about those who push back against the West's narrative on Xinjiang and who encourage people to expect more than problematic/mathematically flawed data to support their beliefs. Isobel completely left out Carl's explanation for his major motive
Carl responded to Isobel multiple times every time she tried to call him a supporter of the Chinese government. Despite the countless times she was corrected, the article still ran with Carl being called a Pro-Beijing influencer.

Sorry Esquel, evidence of slave labour isn't actually needed for American sanctions. These are always about destroying the economy & lives of ordinary civilians to cause discontent in local populations, your dozens of Uighur employees of decades included.

scmp.com/business/artic…
These are the attacks America's been waiting to ramp up on after a sufficient portion of their population believes their state-sponsored "evidence" full of contradictions. They know how easy this stuff is and that their people are no less gullible, even after the "WMD" experience
If China's terrorism problem wasn't under control, and terrorists fighting with groups the US once funded, were still killing people in China, they wouldn't need sanctions. Conflict is the goal, but that's hard to do when Uighurs are increasing in population & finding good jobs.
