    :sobbing liberal wojak: noooo you can’t liberate women this is literally oppression and genocide! Think about their culture*

    *(imposed wahabbism from SA via CIA that has a good chance of originally being fomented and spread by British intelligence a century ago to weaken and better control the region)

      Can you expand or give me some resources on it being spread by British intelligence?

        I don’t have any sources at hand about the involvement of the British with Wahhabism in Xinjiang (other than the obvious, such as hosting the CIA/NED backed WUC and their sham so-called “tribunal”, who are in turn affiliated with the ETIM terrorist group), but i do know that British intelligence were the first through their presence in India to start meddling in Tibet and to try to foment separatism before the CIA eventually took over as the main funders and weapon smugglers there. That’s quite an interesting story that goes all the way back to the British invasion and attempt to conquer Tibet from China in the early 1900s. So they definitely have a history of meddling in China.

        They also have a history of involvement with Wahhabism in the form of supporting the Saudis in the Arab revolt against the Ottoman empire, only to turn turn around and carve up the Middle East for themselves and the French.

        I fully expect therefore to find British fingerprints in the attempted destabilization of Xinjiang alongside the American ones.

        No sources. There’s some history there as cfgaussian said but I’m speculating based on their behavior in India which is more well known. Divide and conquer as well as well-known “controlled evolution” of Islam statements by US intelligence. I just think there’s a decent chance they spread/aided such things as they were the big meddlers at the time in question (as opposed to US who’d do it these days) but the British are or were at the time very tight lipped, they’d literally take secrets to their graves as part of their duty and anyone involved in that has been dead for some time.

        To clarify by the region I meant west Asia/middle east not China/Xinjiang. West Asia being where wahabbism first appeared to my knowledge.

    This is super tangential but am i the only one who has a weird apprehension about the idea of a hot pot? I’m sure it’s delicious and i’m sure it’s quite safe, but i have this irrational fear of sitting that close to large amounts of boiling liquid. Growing up i knew someone who was scarred pretty badly thanks to tipping a pot of boiling water over themselves as a child and since then i’ve had a real phobia of that scenario. Which is strange since i have absolutely no problem with dishes being flambéd with a massive flame right in front of me at the table.

      They are quite difficult to spill, since they’re very wide and not raised very high.

        Hence why I called it an irrational fear or a phobia. I know logically that it’s safe but the feeling is still there.

      That might be just you. Hotpot pots have very wide bases, so spilling is actually kinda hard.
