China detaining millions of Uyghurs? Serious problems with claims by US-backed NGO and far-right researcher 'led by God' against Beijing

Far-right Christian fundamentalist Adrian Zenz helped popularize claim China detained millions of Uyghur Muslims. He says he’s "led by God" on a "mission"

Claims that China has detained millions of Uyghur Muslims are based largely on two studies. A closer look at these papers reveals US government backing, absurdly shoddy methodologies, and a rapture-ready evangelical researcher named Adrian Zenz.

Native English speakers are the world’s worst communicators

In a room full of non-native speakers, ‘there isn’t any chance of understanding’. It might be their language, but the message is often lost

“A lot of native speakers are happy that English has become the world’s global language. They feel they don’t have to spend time learning another language,” says Chong.

“But… often you have a boardroom full of people from different countries communicating in English and all understanding each other and then suddenly the American or Brit walks into the room and nobody can understand them.”

The non-native speakers, it turns out, speak more purposefully and carefully, typical of someone speaking a second or third language. Anglophones, on the other hand, often talk too fast for others to follow, and use jokes, slang and references specific to their own culture, says Chong. In emails, they use baffling abbreviations such as ‘OOO’, instead of simply saying that they will be out of the office.

“The native English speaker… is the only one who might not feel the need to accommodate or adapt to the others,” she adds.

The origin of COVID: Did people or nature open Pandora’s box at Wuhan? - Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists

If the case that SARS2 originated in a lab is so substantial, why isn’t this more widely known? As is now obvious, there are many people who have reason not to talk about it.

the crap bulletin is featuring a newsganda op-ed by hack journo nicholas wade. this one seems to be going viral, trending on twitter.

i keep asking myself, why are they pushing this origin story so hard?

and funny, there’s no mention of USAMRIID or fort detrick anywhere. no mention of the US’s crazy history of lab accidents and leaks and bioweapons and GOF research. there’s not even a mention of the evidence that this virus was around long before patient zero/index case was discovered in asia. 

i wonder why? what are they trying to hide?

either way, this story is serving its purpose.

if you’re asian american and you are not armed right now, i strongly suggest you prepare yourself and get armed now.

or if you can get the hell out of the US.

things are going to get worse and worse.

gee, I wonder why Obama is saying this about the internet? “the single biggest threat to our democracy?”

could it be because the internet exposed his massive crimes? exposed his mass surveillance and spying on the entire world?

his gross mass crimes against humanity? exposed his kill lists? exposed that he’s a brutal mass murderer war criminal monster responsible for countless deaths of innocent people?

idk. i don’t know what democracy is anymore… especially when nobody is able to hold power accountable, when nobody is able to check massive abuse of power… the US the most powerful most brutal “democratic” or non-democratic country on the entire planet, in the history of history. idk.

US Is the Top Human Rights Violator in the World, and It’s Not Even Close

Few things are more politicized and distorted in the United States than the subject of human rights. Over the last two generations, the U.S. political class and its conduits in the corporate media have weaponized human rights to serve an imperia...

These examples are just a few of many that demonstrate why the U.S. is the chief human rights violator in the world. However, it is important to note that how the United States conducts itself abroad is a reflection of the myriad of ways that it violates the human rights of people living in the United States. Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, Sandra Bland, and Michael Brown are just a few of hundreds of examples of Black Americans that have been killed by police officers without redress. An average of 1,000 people in the United States are killed by police officers each year. Unlike the U.S.-led Xinjiang narrative, it is well-documented that over 2 million people reside in U.S. prisons and that nearly three-quarters of that prison population is Black, Latino, or Native American.

The U.S. is home to a quarter of all prisoners in the world. Around 80,000 of these prisoners are held in solitary confinement, a practice of prolonged isolation that the U.N. has firmly declared to be an act of torture. Research suggests that solitary confinement is directly linked to a host of psychological maladies from psychosis to suicide. Solitary confinement also causes lasting structural damage to the brain, especially in the hippocampus region responsible for memory and spatial awareness. Widespread use of solitary confinement in the U.S. is not a benign practice but one that specifically targets racial groups. Over forty percent of all male prisoners in solitary confinement are Black American. The world has long known that the U.S. engages in torture abroad at CIA black sites and Guantanamo Bay Prison but fewer are aware of how torture is commonplace in the U.S.’ numerous prisons.

Americans Fault China for Its Role in the Spread of COVID-19

Unfavorable views of China reach new historic high, and a majority supports taking a tougher stand on human rights.

Around three-quarters (78%) place a great deal or fair amount of the blame for the global spread of the coronavirus on the Chinese government’s initial handling of the COVID-19 outbreak in Wuhan.

interesting, 78% of americans blame china. lol. damn racist trumper fuckers.
