But Beijing’s policy of “Sinification” of religion has increasingly alarmed many Hui, who fear it is widening its strict measures in Xinjiang to additional Muslim areas, such as Ningxia and neighbouring Gansu province.

In the crackdown, the government has banned religious education for young people in mosques, ordered that the call to prayer over loudspeakers be silenced, and sought to stamp out what it sees as Arab elements in mosques.

There's no reason China should let what happened in Russia happen to them, where Saudi-financed Wahhabists radicalized Muslim populations in the Caucasus and convinced them that waging holy war against the state was great.

I don't think that's quite what it means in context.

And yeah sure, saudis are scum, but i don't think secret saudi influence in mosques has ever been a problem in china so... yeah.

Does Xi's Made in China plan qualify as movement towards an autarky, and does that then qualify China to be considered a fascist state?

Soo... UN thinks there's about 3 million Uighurs in internment camps. And yet, no credible reports on any kind of ethnic oppression going on that we can find. I think we can just dismiss this whole thing as western propaganda at this point

yeah, you shouldn't believe it. it's just so clearly propaganda and besides Chairman Xi would never allow any of that to happen

I mean, if it was true wouldn't it be on the chinese news? it would be highly illegal besides
