      Big thread on this.

      Short version is there’s no evidence, its mainly just some anti-semitic guy named adrian zenz who doesn’t speak chinese, and has never been to Xinjiang, copying photos of buildings from google maps, telling western governments what they want to hear, and stories keep re-circulating. A few other western regime-change academics got in on the action, and China repeatedly invites ambassadors to visit the region, and the western ones that do go end up saying yeah this is all bullshit, so their stories don’t get printed.

      Meme form:

      they’re not true in the slightest. the so-called “camps” were legitimately just boarding schools. We’ve had posts explaining this here on lemmygrad, you might be able to find them with a search.
