unsurprisingly communist analysis predicted this exact scenario many years ago
Often when I listened to prominent academics giving their takes and recollecting history, I thought to myself ‘god damn, they’re knowledgable’ - because it would take me a long time to read up, and understand the conflicts they were speaking of and be able to talk about it.
What I hadn’t realised up until recently, is that if you keep up with the news for years on these issues, you too end up with this knowledge bank. These academics didn’t necessarily go back and read all the history books - they lived through them in real time, and each day learnt and applied communist perspectives in the face of propaganda.
Similarly, the Marxists of this community repeatedly educated me but being more correct and predictive about things than everyone else until I read more theory and caught up.
they’ll erase themselves if they even bother showing up. While they’ve been off pillaging in Syria for a decade the Chinese government has lifted the standard of living in Xinjiang and tamped down on Uyghur separatism. Typically a would be independence movement needs to, you know, be active in the land and among the people they are purporting to represent.
If these guys think they’ll receive a hero’s welcome from the locals they’ll be sorely mistaken, and the US isn’t around in Afghanistan to funnel them support anymore. Hilariously their old friends in the Taliban will probably sell them out to China now for a few drops of aid money. It will look like some bay of pigs shit if they try to return in force. I doubt they will even try to leave Syria
Yeah the PLA mopped up the Tibetan CIA assets quick because they could not hide. Imagine being a typical liberated Tibetan serf seeing some lama failson trying to bring back slavery. Yeah it’s reporting time.

Reminded me of this gem from Parentis “Friendly feudalism”
Many Tibetan commandos and agents whom the CIA dropped into the country were chiefs of aristocratic clans or the sons of chiefs. Ninety percent of them were never heard from again, according to a report from the CIA itself …
They have a ceiling support of 45% (the percentage of Uyghurs in Xinjiang), so good luck with pulling off a separatist movement. But this is all talk. Put your feet in the shoes of these Uyghur jihadists. They could risk going through Afghanistan to get vaporized by the PLA or they could steal land from indigenous Syrians and set themselves up as Uyghur settlers like their Zionist masters. They’re already stealing land since if they decide to squat in a Syrian’s home, the Syrian can’t exactly say no.
Afghanistan is an economically devastated pariah state. China should extend a helping hand and get Afghanistan back on their feet by economically and politically helping them. And when China does help them in this way, the Taliban will know what to do when they see a bunch of Uyghur jihadists trying to make their way to Xinjiang.
Pretty much. The best model for anti terrorism is the development of Xinjiang, full stop. Generally speaking people don’t like being terrorists and would much rather live regular lives, so if you stabilize a region and give them that option they will choose it.
Fair, it’s a totally different situation, but I think that if nothing else cooperation and development remains provably the best path to stabilization and therefore reducing radicalization. Just imagine fighters coming home from fighting in Syria to find out that the rest of their family is making twice as much as they are while working half as hard, how many do you think will just want to settle down?
Yeah, there’s still people breathlessly repeating that “Russia is carrying out a genocide on Ukraine” and I’m looking at the death counts compared to Palestine and going
good luck with that. China will stick them into a blender if they even try, as they should.

It is called the immortal science for a reason
I know they’re usually very measured about these things, but they need to erase these guys like they erased the cia proxy force parachuted into Tibet.

Your programming is a few years out of date, even the UN gave up the ghost on trying to spin that yarn. Tell us about Saddam Hussein’s WMDs next
Gotta say, after the last few years, I don’t think you people should be allowed to use the word genocide anymore
Have to put it on a high shelf until you understand what it actually means
Western censorship of the plight of the Palestinians was so blatant I’m surprised libs still remember how to spell “genocide.”
Yeah, there’s still people breathlessly repeating that “Russia is carrying out a genocide on Ukraine” and I’m looking at the death counts compared to Palestine and going
Those kind of people are especially stupid.
There is a non-trivial number of people who think China is genociding Uyghurs but Israel isn’t genociding Palestinians
Those people legit make my blood boil with rage
Westerners think China killed every single Uyghur
Libs are very fond of using the word genocide (PuTiN, China, Assad) except when it actually applies (Palestine)
“Everything is genocide except actual genocide, which is fine”
I turned the burner on my stove and shit directly onto it to see if I could make something worse than your post and I failed miserably.
lmao get fucked, lib
