    Fun fact.

    In China, it is illegal to indoctrinate children in a religious faith. They are required to be 18 years or older, before they can voluntarily choose to attend a service.

    Religion is regulated like alcohol and cigarettes

      CCP wants to make sure it’s indoctrination doesn’t have to compete in the free market of brainwashing during a child’s more impressionable years. Remarkably in line with their economic policy. Lol.

            You know anyone can go to Xinjiang, there’s also Uyghurs in Kazakhstan literally anybody can talk to. IMO Xinjiang has some of the best food in China. Food in Kazakhstan is just fine.

            Uyghur genocide

            It’s always curious to compare Chinese policy towards Uyghurs to Israeli policy towards Palestinians and American policy towards Latin Americans.

            To quote the President of the Congo

            Every time China visits we get a hospital, every time Britain visits we get a lecture.
