As for Xinjiang, I really don't live in Xinjiang, so my knowledge is limited. I have two classmates who have worked in Kashgar, Xinjiang for three years, and I have friends who live in Urumqi, Xinjiang. I also have 7-8 friends who have traveled to Xinjiang, but I haven't been there. I can only learn from their words that ordinary people in Xinjiang are very satisfied with the status quo and hate terrorists very much. Both Uighurs and Han people living in Xinjiang have a good life, and life safety is their biggest appeal. As for what millions of people are imprisoned by the government, my friends and I who have lived and worked in Xinjiang think it is absurd and not worth refuting. If you believe it, I can do nothing. As for Hong Kong, this is a very complicated issue, but if you want to say oppression, it does not exist. Can you tell me more about how the government oppressed the people of Hong Kong? In fact, Hong Kong is caused by economic problems. The high housing prices and the huge pressure of job competition. They just threw these real-life pressures on the Chinese government because of various problems caused by the downturn of Hong Kong's economy. I don't want to defend anyone. I just want to share the real life and current situation in China.The improvement of the living standards of ordinary people is a result of our own efforts, not of charity.There are lazy people around us. Their life will be very poor. | ||

Their life will be very poor. What a load of horse shit. No Uyghur would dare saying how they feel to you or your friends. In fact, they are so scared now, they would not share their pain with anyone that is not a blood relative. People, farmers, teachers, professors, journalists are all being locked up, Uyghur isnt even taught in school anymore. WHAT are you talking about here?Have a good life? Happy with the status quo? Are you serious? Were the Chinese people happy with the status quo when Japan invaded and occupied some cities? NO WAY, still in school books and Chinese films Japan is blasted into oblivion. Even the Ching dynasty, Rulers being of non Han, is mocked and spat on in SCHOOL BOOKS! No Uyghur is satisfied by life in Xinjiang, they want you and your 7,8 friends and CCP gone, back home to China and leave them along. CCP is the only terrorist in China. Stop lying, you are defending CCP policies and the oppression in Xinjiang, stop spreading lies, stop pretending to be soft and impartial, you are not fooling anyone. The Uyghurs have suffered enough under the CCP, you dont seem to know and you dont seem qualitied to speak on their behalf. The Han chinese are benifitting from all government policies in Xinjiang, the strategy is to migrate as many from inner China as possible to tip the population balance, in the 1950s there were 5% Han Chinese in Xinjiang, Now close to 50%. Han youth are constantly shown Uyghur females portrayed as beautiful dancers to encourage inter ethnicity marriage so that the population is even more diluted. Some families are threatened and promised money. China has invaded Xinjiang and Tibet, CCP aims to wipe out their languages, culture and take those land forever. That is whats happening, stop sugarcoating and bullshiting around. | ||

But.... Uyghurs and Tibetans are different people, their social structure and culture were completely different, and frankly those areas very sparsely populated and did not suffer from famine as much. It is a shame another culture with a bigger population comes in, destroys all the culture, community and most of all, spiritual aspects of a group of people. And then says "oh look, we all have cars, smartphones and our kids nice and fat now" That is not all life or cultural development is about, that is not what makes everyone happy. Sadly China is a train full speed ahead in consurmerism, eating more and bigger, spending, driving etc. thousand year old Kashgar has been demolished, all the spiritual sites in the taklamakan desert shut or removed with saints' bones scattered, and the reason is always " BUT BUT YOU SHOULD BE GRATEFUL, We brought you progress, and smartphones!" | ||

It is quite sad but the Communist Party has always been a racist institute. No ethnic minorities are represented in the Politburo for example. No wonder the rights and opinions of the ethnic minorities such as the Uyghurs and Tibetans are ignored. | ||

Scotland has some administrative independence but they're still out of the EU despite voting to stay. Where it counts they don't govern themselves. | ||

Generally speaking foreign policy is one of the key indicators of independence. As you just proved, Scotland is not independent. | ||

Around 2000, I enjoyed watching BBC documentaries about China, even though it unabashedly pointed out a lot of social issues, because I thought it made sense. But since about 2012, BBC has gradually resented me when reporting on China, first of all, a very obvious filter that makes people look like China is full of sand; There are also accuses from time to time, until it starts making up things that don't exist,I stopped watching any western media, such as bbc, cnn, lse. . And I am not the only one who has this view. In China, in my university, this is basically the consensus. But I don't think all Westerners are hostile to China, there are foreigners at my university, and I have a pretty good relationship with them. Finally, I am indeed a CCP member, certainly not a propaganda robot.that's a joke. My hometown is in Shanxi Province, China. The scenery here is not bad. If you are a person who is interested in China, you can contact my email.i could afford you some rolls. | ||

The accusation that BBC applies some filters to make it look like China is full of sand is a bizarre one. Perhaps it could have something to do with an increase in content from Xinjiang, which happens to be full of sand... | ||

of course i know that The word was placed at the end of a sentence, presumably meaning that this sentence was said by a robot or that someone had paid me to say it . The word can be a joke or used to accuse the other person of being hired to tell a lie. It's quite complicated lol "wumao" is RMB ,which is 0.5 yuan. | ||

They had to shut down swathes of power plants and heavy manufacturing for like 60 days or something so that it would be clean enough on television.

At first, I thought the same thing you would, but this filter is used in various parts of China, even in some places with very good scenery where i have been there .but that place never have pollution or smog. so.. quite weird ，right？ | ||
