Fending off the urge
I'm not from the West. That said, I do think there is a very strong and valid reason to condemn the human rights abuses, genocide and geopolitical neo colonialism of the CCP while at the same time not ignoring the failures of the West.
Its a very poor false equivalence that you are driving at.
Nothing that the West has done in the past 50 odd years comes close to actual systematic genocide.
Its ok to call out someone for their wrongs without being an apologist for someone else's wrongs.
What if the whole thing is a fabrication from the west?
What if there's no such thing as Genocide, and it really is a vocational school where Uighur are taught some skills and Mandarin and Chinese culture, you know things we all learn at School. What if nobody got killed by millions?
One would think with the US pushing so hard to fabricate stuffs on daily basis, you'd think they'd easily find concrete proof of the CCP killing millions in a concentration camp. You can't even hide bodies from COVID deaths in many western cities, how unbelievable it is to think the CCP can hide 1 million graveyards? Grainy doctored pictures made with blurry and scary headlines? Closed up focus of I don't know what with fake narratives? "Credible Source" which are just internet hoax?
China may not be 100% angelic in all this, but ask yourself all this:
1. What gain does china have in killing millions of her own citizen, with US hot on her trails looking for any excuse for a war? They're busy buying off Africans, Asians, Europe, why bother killing millions of her own?
2. Slave labor? It's cheaper to actually pay for labors than to fund a covert operation to enslave millions of people.
3. You can't police a nation, or an ethnic, kills 1 in 10 people brutally and not have an uprising. Do you see any uprising in Uighyur? It's open for tourism by the way.
4. It's 2020, everyone has smart phone, you'd think if there's serious issue in there there would be more clear footage? You can't hide anything these days.

Some extract:
> What minorities in China like the Uyghur are facing is not torture but policies and social welfare far more favorable than what their Han brethren are enjoying. In order to raise the ratio of minorities’ population, Uyghurs and other minorities were exempted from the One Child Policy for 10 years. They are still enjoying reasonably relaxed policies. Some minority farmers and herdsmen are allowed to raise up to four children. In terms of education, while the general practice in China is nine-year compulsory education, Xinjiang is the first province to practise 15-year compulsory education. Every year, millions of Chinese high school students compete in Gaokao (national college entrance examination), which is probably one of the most crucial moments in their lives. Chances are the minority students from Xinjiang and other provinces are awarded 50 to 60 extra points, meaning they will be well ahead of Han students in terms of ranking by a large margin of several hundred thousand.
In China, where the area of arable land per person is less than one-third of the world average, and land rents in major cities are almost sky-high, Muslims still keep their religious burial tradition whereas Han people are to be cremated.
In 2018, tourism in Xinjiang surged significantly. A total of 150 million tourists visited Xinjiang, recording a 40% year-to-year increase. Among those tourists, 2.4 million were foreigners, an increase of 10%. People who visit Xinjiang are in awe of its tranquility, beauty and prosperity.
This happens 40 years ago with Japan:
Anyone who is a threat of the Anglo-Saxon world will be hated.
In the last century before the “Lost ten years” of the Japanese economy, Japan was the major threat of the U.S. technology dominance, especially in the semi-conductor industry.
So people began to destroy Japanese cars
Kill Asian who might be Japanese with a baseball bat.
Murder of Vincent Chin - Wikipedia
Trade war against Japan
Sanctions, all the Trump’s blablabla.
Of course, how could a foreign country is more technologically advanced than the U.S.?
They are just uncivilized Asian Monkeys! So THEY MUST have STOLEN our Technology!!
Accusing them of stealing American Intellectual properties (sounds familiar ?).
JAPANESE EXECUTIVES CHARGED IN I.B.M. THEFT CASE
Do those things sound familiar to you?
Also, now they are doing this “stealing technology brain wash“ in a more elegant way.
Do you believe you have “free” internet media??
I was trying to search “Japanese stealing technology from the U.S.” for the papers above and when I was halfway there, I got:
So anyone who is more advanced in Technology must have stolen from the U.S.
Anyone who got more economic power must be evil.
It’s just a public opinion war against the potential competitors.
They story back then was:
All Japanese were boring working robots especially Japanese male were slant eyed creepy short man.
The propaganda pic was like this.
A good article to read about history, but it’s very long.
In the name of “unfair trade to U.S companies”, “anti Dumping”.
The Japanese “volunteers ” to give up 20% of Japanese domestic market share and agree to sell their DRAM at a price not lower than “the cost”. Of course, “the cost” is decided by the U.S government and the competitor companies of Japanese in the U.S.
Basically,it was like the captain of the football team, bullied a nerd for all his money and college offer, and years later, he is nice to the nerd.
Of course, the bully hasn’t changed, he just has a new target.
