The European Parliament overwhelmingly passed an emergency resolution Thursday condemning the Chinese government’s persecution of Uyghurs and urging China to immediately and unconditionally release detainees, including Uyghur economist Ilham Tohti and Gulshan Abbas.
The resolution is fueled by widespread concern from the international community and highlights its continued concern about the human rights situation in Xinjiang.
Don’t let Lemmygrad see this article. They’ll ban the European Parliament.

There was no genocide.
There were mass detentions where people would be picked up for minor crimes and sent for job training, according to Wapo, at least some of them were closed/repurposed before 2022, presumably in 2020.
There is plenty of room to criticize sending someone for 6+ months of trade school because they didn’t have a job and got caught doing some incredibly minor crime and analyze what China has done in the past and why they did this, but libs can’t have that conversation when they’re invested in a crazy conspiracy theory.
