It’s really frustrating, I was talking to someone about how successful China has been in de-radicalization of reactionaries. But they responded to this by saying they’re only successful because, and I quote “put them all in concentration camps and killed them”

Has anyone here been successful in deprogramming people about this topic? If so any good sources I can use to dissuade them? I tried telling them that the UN report, if you read it, just says that there’s concerns about abuse by internment offcials, and there’s no evidence of genocide. But when I say this they just dismiss it as if the UN is controlled by the PRC. It’s like a religion to liberals to believe anything bad about China and can get really frustrating.

    That’s bullshit. What’s been happening in Palestine is atrocious and America’s long-standing policy towards funding it is inexcusable.

    The only thing remotely near “excusing” is my staunch belief that letting Trump be the next president bc of the current admin’s stance is not helpful or even counterproductive. Especially given the GOP’s regressive stance toward gays, trans, education, etc.
