does sh.itjust.works allow criticism of CCP? (sh.itjust.works)

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.

Founder of the shill think thank "Victims of Communism" and close collaborator of the Falun Gong cult who is behind the vast majority of the reports on the Uygur situation. You make of that what you will.

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.

That's because the treatment of Uighurs by the CCP government is in many ways without parallel and thus needs to be treated differently.
