Slavery will never be history as long as we turn a blind eye to China

Forced labour is an essential part of Chinese state’s programme to humiliate and destroy ethnic minorities. The Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps (XPCC) runs prison factories and tis own paramilitary force to keep its captives in line. It help the development of the Chinese cotton industry which supplies 20% of world’s cotton market.

XPCC sends forced labour to hand-harvest cotton which still on-going in Xinjiang from the website of Chinese companies and officials as evidence. If Chinese Communist party has a reserve army of forced labour, it has no need to spend on technology.

Clothing firms once sent auditors to Xinjiang to check forced labour was not in their supply lines. But the authorities started treating them as suspects and they pulled out.

The mapping of China’s “re-education” camps only began in 2018, Rahima Mahmut says. Whether with forced labour or the overthrow of the rule of law in Hong Kong, the tyrannical turn in Chinese policy is taking time to sink in.

I guess the hypocrisy is a thing in the #NBA. When you say you don't care about #Uyghur, you are saying that you don't care about #genocide, systematic rape, and #slavery. If this isn't extreme #Nazi, what is?
