    I’m sure the West is exaggerating the war-crimes China is committing, but Uyghurs were and are still most definitely oppressed

    Even if the CIA backs a group, for example the Taliban, there is a root issue of oppression which inspires those resistance groups to take those CIA arms.

    In the case of the Taliban it first was the Russians (and later on the Americans).

      That can and does happen. But what also can and does happen is the CIA finds people willing to stir up shit just for the money and the opportunity to seize power.
