Citing that the Chinese government has an approval rating of 90+% among Chinese people often gets countered by the argument “Why don’t you ask the Uyghurs/Tibetans/Hong Kongers what they think of the Chinese government”

Are there any statistics on approval among these people and how do you handle such an argument?

      Wow! Way to defend one of the most brutal regimes. Unless, all the North Korean refugees I worked with are lying, we know some of the brutality that is happening.

      Oh and you never did post an academic source… give me a specific source. That’s right you can’t…

        You’re stuffing your fingers in your ears and not reading. I gave you an entire list of academic sources on tibetan slavery. Google scholar only searches academic sources. Go click on one of them.

        I’m not defending the North Korean government, I’m simply stating that we don’t know enough. If that’s “defending” then you need to have a long hard look in the mirror.

        Idiots are always the loudest.

          Go ahead and pick one. Just using Google scholar and typing in a topic isn’t finding a source…

          When we clearly know some of the atrocities that are happening and you state that we don’t know enough, yes, you are supporting them. Go read what you wrote, if you think you’re not defending NK, then you’re the idiot…

          Here, I’ll do what you did. Look at Chinese slavery!

            Since you evidently can’t be arsed, https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/0739314032000145242

            And since you kindly put in a link for Chinese slavery for some reason, I clicked, I actually had a look through the results, and they mostly concern imperial China and Japanese war crimes in China anyway. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ so what.

            If you’re not here in good faith please piss off, thanks ☺
