I think a little clarification is needed. No. I don’t actually think everyone there is insane. I don’t care about the bans so stop trying to use that. HB enthusiasts coming here and trying to call me out achieves nothing besides proving my point
Edit: Feel free to keep trying to brigade me. It’s not going to scare me to take this down

I found the thread and you had several people read your links and go through them in detail. Most of what they’re claiming is traced back to crackpot Adrian Zenz.
As I said, if you go there and say wrong things and then can’t back them up, they’re going to be rude to you. Citing Adrian Zenz is one form of not being able to back up your claims.

Whoopsie! That’s already two. It was easy to find those because they were already pointed out to you (along with several other of your sources) in the thread that you’re complaining about.
Here’s a tip - when you post a source on this subject, press “Ctrl+F” then type “Zenz,” and if anything comes up, don’t post it. Obviously, I can’t expect anyone to actually read their sources before posting them, but is 6 keystrokes really too much to ask?
wtf is a zenz?
A crackpot who is connected to the CIA and a known source of misinformation and fake news.

Most of the claims of genocide originate with him just making shit up. It’s bizarre how many news articles either cite him directly or various groups that he’s headed.
i thibk Uyghurs being in guatonomo is another source, because why would they leave their homeland secretly?
Anyone in Guantanamo is not a credible source when it comes to things the US wants to believe. See WMDs in Iraq.
What do you mean secretly? Chinese people don’t have to sneak out of China.
I can’t recommend any books on development of terrorism in Xinjiang if you want to know more, maybe ask in /c/History.
