I have seen that the lemmy.ml mods will openly ban discussion about the CCP. I am wondering if the sh.itjust.works team allows criticism of government bodies, while still banning racism.

I read the article and I still can't tell if we like the guy or not. Wikipedia makes it sound like he's not pro-CCP.

Adrian Zenz is not pro-CCP but it seems like wildbus8979 probably is. It is worth pointing out that the Uighur situation is getting much different treatment by the media than genocides by western nations. Not to mention American imperialism etc.

That's not really the point though. The point is, CCP censorship and wildbus8979 is at the very least, completely missing that point.

You can not be pro CPP and still question western propaganda, crazy huh? 🤷

I think the Arab League probably knows better than some fucking fascist and a weird ass cult. But you believe what you want... Not to say that I think things aren't complex in the region, but I think the west purposefully misrepresents the reality.

I enjoyed watching Naomi «Sexy Cyborg» Wu's videos in Xinjiang, her girlfriend is Uighur and they seemed to have no issues walking around.

Just want to point out, Naomi Wu is not the best person to point out when it comes to defending China: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naomi_Wu
