The Chinese dictatorship is literally setting up concentration camps in Xinjiang.<p>&quot;Zenz’s research demonstrates that such facilities are not only of significant size, with some exceeding 10,000 square metres, but also are akin to concentration camps: Many bids mandate the installation of comprehensive security features that turn existing facilities into prison-like compounds: surrounding walls, security fences, pull wire mesh, barbwire, reinforced security doors and windows, surveillance systems, secure access systems, watchtowers, and guard rooms or facilities for armed police.&quot;<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.lowyinstitute.org&#x2F;the-interpreter&#x2F;xinjiangs-transformation-through-education-camps" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.lowyinstitute.org&#x2F;the-interpreter&#x2F;xinjiangs-tran...</a><p>It&#x27;s pretty disgusting how another previous thread <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=17645273" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=17645273</a> has people wanting &#x27;new leadership from China&#x27; to lead the world

&quot;&quot;&quot; The Uighurs see themselves as a minority facing cultural, religious and economic discrimination. When Xinjiang was incorporated into the People&#x27;s Republic of China in 1949, they comprised roughly 80 percent of the region&#x27;s population. Controlled migration to Xinjiang of Han Chinese has reduced this share to 45 percent, and it is mainly these migrants who benefit from the economic boom in the region, which has plentiful supplies of oil, gas and coal. &quot;&quot;&quot;<p>This is the key problem for political instability. China is having the inequality problem worse than any other countries....

Needless to say that every knife sold has a bar code associated with your file. So when you slay your friendly neighbor they know it was you.

Do we need an article every few days on Xinjiang? These articles reveal nothing new.
