China has committed "serious human rights violations" against Uyghur Muslims in its northwestern region of Xinjiang, which may amount to "crimes against humanity" according to a long-awaited report released Wednesday by the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights.

Comrades, wake up, sources say.

It may be time that you may read your daily propaganda, an unnamed source tells me.

Allegations of a newsreport from the CNN have just been made public by various anonymous sources.

My sources tell me you may want to give your opinion on this.

    I just skimmed through the report and it’s a joke.

    It’s all ‘some people say, some sources claim, some interviewees said’

    There seems to be no actual, concrete source or evidence in the entire report.

      Sorry for the spam, but this actual quote is too good to be true:

      Nevertheless, several researchers, predominantly based on detailed analysis of publicly available satellite imagery, consider that a large number of mosques have been destroyed in XUAR over the last years.197 This trend has also been reported by investigative journalists who have visited the region and compared satellite images with the current physical conditions of the geographic sites in question. 198 The Government, for its part, has consistently denied allegations of improper removal or destruction of religious sites, suggesting instead that mosques are in disrepair and being reconstructed for safety reasons and that basic burials and funeral customs are protected, while cemetery facilities have been improving.199 The Government has also stated that “people of different ethnic groups in some places have relocated graveyards of their own free will”.200

      ‘No, we have not visited the area, is that important?’

      1. While OHCHR is not able to reach firm conclusions at this stage regarding the extent of the destruction of religious sites, in the absence of meaningful access to sites and fuller information from the Government, these reports remain deeply concerning.

      Fucking hell mate

        That second quote is beyond parody. “We can’t confirm this bogus claim, therefore we’re going to take it very seriously. This is deeply concerning” That’s not how it works in argument nor in law. The onus isn’t on the accused, a claim doesn’t gain credibility by not being confirmed.

        So on the one hand, the UN thinks China is committing human rights abuses.

        But on the other hand, the UN doesn’t care enough about Muslims to actually find out.

        Got it.

        Enter stage left: Malvoliberalo Dost thou not know China controls the UN as it controls WHO?

        The damage is done, the papers will report the headline, and any criticism of it will be added to the list of ‘attrocities denied by the left’.

          There’s also 100+ other countries that support China in this. It’s just the westoids that don’t. Wonder why. Could it be capitalism? Nah.

            The only muslim country that support the west on this is Albania (they still probably didn’t got the memo that they aren’t getting into EU no matter what).

        It’s like it’s impossible for these fuckers to conceive in their brains that China literally does infrastructure as a passion and it would make a lot of sense to remove poor condition buildings and build new ones.

      I second this. Steaming pile of garbage.

      I have one question, though. I read that China declined the High Commissioner to conduct an on the ground investigation - why would they do this? Surely if they were innocent it would be all clear, no?

      I feel like I am missing something.
