@mndeg Do any of these countries have economic ties to China? Also, what are the human rights in those countries like?

@ciditan1615 I will be arrested due to my social media posts so obviously I can't go.

@haozhang6247 "Aren't Saudi and Qatar close US allies?" - Your issue is that you think everyone is playing your silly "US vs China" game. I've spoken against US abuses for two decades. I guess it's projection.

@haozhang6247 You're changing the subject. They have economic ties with China. Okay so there's a reason not to speak up against China. Aren't Saudi Arabia and the UAE engaging in genocide in Yemen? Doesn't Qatar have slavery? The joke is that you can't have a discussion without pointing fingers. When debating China's innocence, you bring up the US's guilt.

@ciditan1615 "I think it is no harm and not difficult to watch some vlog about China by expat on YT" - And how do I know how to trust? If they say anything negative they may be asked to leave the country and have their visa revoked. You see the issue? Aren't these expats breaking the law by posting on Western social media? Aren't they evading content blocks through VPNs? "How a country that is so "badass" is developing its economy so fast" - By doing a deal with the Devil. And the Devil always comes back to pay. Impending demographic collapse and housing crisis. "How the investor get payback ?" - I don't know what case you're talking about. You're asking me how to commit financial crimes? I think the point of a financial crime is that the transaction doesn't even make sense, and someone runs off with the money. "And the investor are all private company." - So what? Tons of private dealings have public money involved. How is this a smoking gun? "your media will never say it" - You keep saying "your media", but I don't watch media. Might be projection. "So you people remain in your little bubble" - And you're outside a bubble? "What a pathetic." - Not more pathetic than defending a government.

@ciditan1615 I could do a daily vlog in any country and make it look good. Nothing needs to be staged. I just need to go to the right places and point the camera in the right directions. "No one will be arrsted for critisize Chinese government." - I simply do not trust your word. "that is a trick to remind you the suviet union CCCP" - But nobody calls it CCCP here. People in English speaking countries call it USSR. In most Latin speaking countries it's URSS. The vast majority of people hasn't seen the Cyrillic spelling. It's a nice theory, but it doesn't even work.

@ciditan1615 Trusting anything you see is absurd. Ever seen a movie? It's all fake. I have seen many Chinese vlogs. You know who is probably the most famous expat vlogger? Serpentza. You're saying you trust everything you see and everyone who speaks. As if people with a camera cannot be biased. As if people who speak cannot lie. That's pathetic. Not having healthy distrust of people who lie for profit.

@questworldmatrix "Although I can admire the thinking of other countries bring bought off" - It's not thinking, they literally get bought off. Have you noticed how many countries receive US "foreign aid" so they'll play nice with Israel? Countries with a track record of doing whatever gets them the most money and also of human rights abuses aren't exactly the unbiased observers one would think they are. "you're being invited to go, and you're going to play the "I would go to Xinjiang, but I took an arrow to the knee" card? It's not East Berlin, dude. " - Arrow to the knee? You're almost a decade late with that reference. I am being invited to a place that has a track record of being rough on dissidents. I will not do something as stupid as going to a place where my safety cannot be guaranteed simply because a random internet person told me that actually China is a very free country and they pinky promise nothing's going to happen. You know, back when East Berlin was a thing some people would have said that it was a great place and worth visiting. It would have been wise not to trust them then.

Carissa Wu "they actually invited the BBC to Xinjiang" - And a cartel boss can also invite you to a particular location in Central/South America at a time he specifies. You won't find any drugs. He picked the place. He picked the time. Do you honestly not see a problem there? Do you think that being invited to a random spot in Siberia during the Cold War would disprove the existence of Gulags? Do you think you'll see human rights abuses in the Pyongyang tours? No. "She is an Ughyur girl living in Xinjiang" - Who do I believe? The people who have to sneak coded messages out? Or the person in China openly using YouTube even though they're not supposed to? Hmmmm. "just because another country has close economic ties to China does not mean they will just blindly follow whatever China says" - Yes but it does mean they have a motive to lie or at least parrot propaganda. Why would they come out swinging against China? Why would they care? They have their own people to take care of, why would they care about the Uyghurs especially when doing so would jeopardize their relations? "By that logic, China has extremely close economic ties to the US" - That's not logical at all. The US and China are competitors. Smaller nations cannot compete. "Israel has close economic relations with China but then US pressures them to act against China all the time" - Hold on. So you're saying the opposite doesn't happen? That Arab countries with economic ties to the US can't be pressured by China? You just debunked your own argument by simply flipping the script. "A lot of the countries that China invited are neutral such as Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia" - They're not "neutral" at all, their close proximity to the South China Sea means they can't rock the boat.

@lxy0709 "people who got detained at the US/Mexico border concentration camps" - Let me ask you, what do you think happens if you try to make your way across the Chinese border through Pakistan/Afghanistan/Tajikistan?

@lxy0709 That's funny. First of all they'll just assume you're a spy so don't count on a phone call saving you. Second, being on friendly terms with a state doesn't negate the fact that China has had terror attacks and they know that the US will use these borders to move trainees out of the country so that they can attend training camps and then moved back in.
