THREAD 🧵

Yesterday we were proud to stand alongside so many different allies, all united by the need to defeat the appalling #AntiRefugeeBill #BordersBill and win sanctuary and equality for everyone fleeing tyranny & persecution, including Uyghurs.

Why does this matter? [1] Imagine you escaped the abuse and persecution in East Turkestan / Xinjiang. You found a home in, say, Egypt, where you rebuilt your life.

In 2017 Egyptian cops rounded up dozens of Uyghurs for deportation to China (qz.com/africa/1028546…), so you fled to Turkey. [2]

Listening to @robertsreport speak about his new book with @j_smithfinley, drawing the parallels between China's colonialism in East Turkestan, and European powers' colonial exploits.

Consistent opposition to imperialism means supporting the #Uyghurs' struggle for freedom. The hypocrisy of the PRC state is stark - it poses as "anti-imperialist" and "socialist" - yet having inherited an empire from historic China, it refuses to acknowledge the right to self-determination of the indigenous peoples dominated by that empire.
