A Uyghur View

The Party attacked the new President of Taiwan in the name of “all Chinese.” Uyghurs are not Chinese, however, and many Chinese do not like the CCP either.

China’s May 23 press conference focused on the Taiwan issue and was filled with provocative, uncivilized, and unrepresentative statements against independence movements in China and their “supporters,” including US and Japan. The statements followed China’s joint military exercises around Taiwan, what it called “strong punishment” for “separatist acts.”

Would those who kill human beings hesitate to kill plants and animals?

At the UN’s  COP28, the annual international climate summit held in  Dubai in the first week of December, the Chinese side opposed the EU’s carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM), stating that “China would set its climate targets based on the country’s own pace of technological and economic development.”

The billionaire said one should consider the “two sides” of the Uyghur question. Or perhaps it is time to consider the two sides of Elon Musk.

Elon Musk stated on Twitter that there are two sides to China’s repression of the Uyghur. He did so as an excuse to bow to China. However, no matter what he says, genocide is genocide, and it only has one side. It is a crime against the laws of nature, human morality, and international law.

Interestingly, Elon Musk’s words have not expressed two sides of the Uyghur genocide but rather two sides of his own beliefs. He believes in being an “absolutist” when it comes to both free speech and selfishness, with the first being his dream and the second his reality.

We call for an independent investigation, and ask the Chinese authorities to immediately release a full list of the victims.

In East Turkestan (Xinjiang to China), another tragic disaster has occurred. Dozens and maybe hundreds of Uyghurs died in a fire in front of the world.

By their very nature, the Chinese authorities showed no mercy in this incident. No officers broke into the building or the locks for hours, as the fire roared out of control. The official reason was that the road was narrow, and parked cars blocked the way to the building. It took three hours for them to attempt to extinguish the fire, despite firefighters arriving at the scene within five minutes.

Can the Uyghur genocide be the main rationale for the extension? After all, Chinese say that you should not change horses while crossing a river.

No political leader can claim that autocratic rule is a kind of progress or development. Instead, it is justified by real or alleged urgent needs of the state. Jiang Zemin and Wen Jiabao were two CCP leaders of the Chinese state who said that China needed fifty years to transition to a multi-party system and true democracy. They used the fact that China is a poor country with a large population as an excuse for autocracy.
