An understanding of Xinjiang cotton slave labor propaganda campaign
These last days, the talk of Xinjiang blood cotton seems to have died down a little bit. Probably because of the real genocide of Palestinians going on which the US/West condones.
Another reason could be that with India's doomsday like Covid19 second wave, the output of Indian cotton would be seriously affected. India's democratic non-slave labor (much cheaper than Xinjiang "slave labor") are not in a position to labor at all.
India produces about 25% of the world's cotton, about the same as China. If Indian cotton is no longer available on the market, it may not be advisable to boycott the Chinese cotton, especially that prices of commodities have gone up wildly courtesy of American QE,
boycotting Chinese cotton would be suicidal for Western brands.
India is a great disappointment to the US/West. The West had wanted to kick China out of the global supply chain for years. India, with its abundant "non-slave" cheaper than Xinjiang democratic labor,
is designated to replace China as the world's next manufacturing base.
On cue, all Western MSM have gone on a relentless frenetic propaganda campaign of Xinjiang slave labor aiming to strike dead China's manufacturing.
Western propaganda put coercive pressure on
multinationals (Apple, famous textile brands) to move out of China by accusing them of using slave labor...
Unfortunately, now all the Western brands understood from the H&M example that they can't earn big money from the China market
while carrying out the US agenda to destroy the Chinese economy. Nike's sale in China in April dropped 80% as compared to last year, already a bad year... So this part of the plan has failed.
The US has already sounded the bugle of economic war against China.
The first step is to have textile factories mass move out of China to India. When the Covid19 broke out in Wuhan, US and India were wild with joy.
India was more than willing to take over the entirety of China's manufacturing. Now one understands the venom of the
cohorts of anti-China Indian trolls on Twitter. Demonizing China is good for India.
Unfortunately, India is unable to put the Covid19 under control. Indian textile factories are all closed. China has been receiving all the textile orders previously meant for India.
Chinese textile factories are now working around the clock for the world, fully booked till the end of the year 2021.
With the Pandemic, the plan to use India to contain and replace China is dead. Now not only the textile manufacturing is returning to China,
other sectors, notably smart phone assembly may go back to China too. Companies and capital now understand China is the only country capable of effectively dealing with a pandemic. No company can risk the prospect of having its factory closed for 1.5 years again.
For manufacturing, China is the only game in town.
US is determined to decouple China from the global supply chain because China is the only developing country which US is unable to control, ie, a country US can't loot & plunder through legal financial speculation. US can short
the Indian economy and appropriate its quality assets pretty easily so US is not afraid of India ever becoming China.
Through capital control, the wealth China has created China seems to be able to keep for itself. Soros tried his hand at Hong Kong in 1997 but failed miserably.
US tried in 2015 to cause capital flight from China leading to an economic crash but China resisted. It's not only conjecture that Gordon Chang and the West frequently predicted China's collapse. If China's economy doesn't collapse on its own, US would cause it to collapse.
However repeated failure made the US realize it must use more forceful means. Presently it's using propaganda to strike dead the Chinese economy.
The Covid19 breaking out in China should have been a perfect opportunity to cripple China, but the uncanny thing
is that China seems to be able to see all the invisible holes US dug for China and not fall into them.
China is an oddball, an exception which interferes with the US plan to keep the developing countries forever developing. In other words,
China challenges the "rule based international order".
Now Xinjiang slave labor propaganda has extended to include China's clean energy industry, notably solar panels because Biden wants to create a clean energy industry in the US.
Slave labor propaganda is pretty handy to eliminate the Chinese competition.
Knowing that all the holes the perfidious US has dug for China are useless, high chance US maneuver this time will turn out to be a flop as well... More likely, US will fall into its own holes.
US puts incredible evolutionary pressure on Chinese. To survive, Chinese people must be smarter. It's a jungle out there. The rule of survival of the fittest is running...

The Indian consul-general in Hong Kong complained that the price of oxygen generators supplied by China has gone up and urged the Chinese government to lower the price. It's true that the price has doubled because Chinese companies are under
2/pressure to deliver the order of 60k oxygen generators within an extremely short notice. Prices of spare parts and raw material have gone up accordingly. Besides, as time is of essence, companies are working around the clock, they must pay over time or hire new workers.
3/China saw its economy grow 18% and its exports grow more than 50% in the first quarter, resulting in the phenomenon that it's difficult to find skilled workers now. The salaries have gone up too. There's no such thing as slave labor in China. Chinese companies must remunerate
Biden is a copycat of President Xi. He wants to do everything Xi does. Xi said China will make the Chinese vaccine a public health product meaning China will not seek profit from it. Biden, to raise himself to Xi's moral high ground proposes to give up the patent right of
2/ vaccines. Except that American government doesn't own any vaccine patent rights. Pfizer's mRNA was developed by a German company. No wonder this aroused the intense ire of Merkel.
Given the sacrosanct principle of private property in the "free" world,
3/ Biden's proposal is just wind.
One wonders why the White House doesn't propose something feasible it has control of and which can be put into action right away, ie, lift the ban of vaccine raw material export which India needs so badly....
200 million tourists visit this open air prison every year and were enchanted with the good food, the friendliness of the locals, the beautiful sceneries...
China's open air prison tourism with staged dancing, singing, praying and other street behavioral art is a miracle!
I just hope tourist destinations like France won't believe the American bullshit this time and decides to do open air prison to attract tourists. France was tricked into wanting to genetically modify its soldiers based on the faulty US intelligence.
Children picking cotton are smiling. Are you sure it's slave labor? This is recreational outdoor school activity! Besides the black & white photos look like Tibet during Tibetan Slave Era before the CPC liberated Tibet in the 1950s...The Christian Church on fire looks fake.. 🤔
Come and ponder on the western delusion on China... In China, 200 million people visit Xinjiang every year. He is explaining to me a Chinese that Xinjiang children must smile and pick cotton to earn their dinner...
Disillusioned authentic American Baizuo (liberal) former diplomat:
"United States must make sure we do not have a peer competitor for our security. This is a brutalest philosophy. The proposition is that even if China were to change, adapted our constitution and laws wholesale,
we should still try to limit their growth, merely because we shouldn't have a peer competitor, even if it means pushing them back into poverty."
Cynical TV host: I don't mean this question cynically, sarcastically. What's wrong with that?
US hates China so much not because of the #UighurGenocide fake news It invented, but because China has become powerful enough to rival and overtake the US.
I'm sorry for the Baizuo diplomat who speaks fluent Chinese. Such a good man, having to serve the sinister US agenda...
