Some dark, dark stuff happening in China, and it's been going on for a while.
The US left's stance on all this is confusing. Normally, the left roars into action whenever there's even a whiff of oppression against Muslims. The left is silent when it's Muslims doing the oppressing (e.g., regarding women's rights or gay rights), but that's consistent, at least: the left is willing to ignore Islam's anti-woman, anti-gay stance because intersectionalism makes Islam an oppressed entity, and being oppressed is the royal road to sanctification, according to the left's worldview. Why, though, isn't the American left saying a thing about China's depredations against its Uyghur Muslim population? Because the left is more in love with (or in cahoots with) China than it is with the Muslims? Because the left is more worried about Chinese economic vengeance than it is about extremist-Muslim bloodlust?
