China is detaining a million Uighur muslims in a secret camp
It&#x27;s odd that China denies the existence of these things, because as of late, they usually do some logical jujitsu to validate their actions, whatever they are.<p>To deny something that exists, and if there is open evidence that it does exists, really has to hurt one&#x27;s own credibility.<p>The treatment of Tibetans is no secret, the Chinese use the &#x27;look how Americans treated Aboriginals in the 19th century&#x27; which is bizarre, but not worse than denial.<p>Saudi Arabia is in a spat over human rights with Canada right now trying to indicate that Canada is a &#x27;human rights abuser&#x27; given the number of homeless there.<p>But to just &#x27;deny deny deny&#x27; is bad in the era of the Internet.<p>My bet is that average Chinese people could be propagandized into the line on Tibet, but if they find that there are 1M people in camps, and their government has been denying it, well, it just kills any credibility the government may have.
