It’s really frustrating, I was talking to someone about how successful China has been in de-radicalization of reactionaries. But they responded to this by saying they’re only successful because, and I quote “put them all in concentration camps and killed them”
Has anyone here been successful in deprogramming people about this topic? If so any good sources I can use to dissuade them? I tried telling them that the UN report, if you read it, just says that there’s concerns about abuse by internment offcials, and there’s no evidence of genocide. But when I say this they just dismiss it as if the UN is controlled by the PRC. It’s like a religion to liberals to believe anything bad about China and can get really frustrating.
They always seem to forget that there is not a single nation-state on the planet that recognizes the island of Taiwan as independent from a Chinese state.
Best part was the “Chinese Colonizers Get Out” banner. I can’t believe China is colonizing an indigenous British city in checks notes Asia. Another highlight was the mindless propaganda-regurgitating redditor who posted the “Free Hong Kong” graphic, but in a display of their incredible laziness and lack of genuine fucks to give about the people there, translated the “free” to mean literally “free of charge” in the Chinese text.
