I would really think that this occurring on a scale not seen since perhaps the Nazis would have garnered more attention. It’s one thing to wring hands over the past, but this should be weighing on the public conscience even more heavily. My generation may be reaping the rewards of a long past era mired in wrongdoings, but the majority of western society is actively selling their soul today.

As we seek reconcile our past, do we not have a responsibility to protect our present? We had a HoC committee make a declaration and some strong rhetoric from a few MPs. Civilized society as a whole needs to come together on this. This horror doesn’t have the complexities of civil war or famine… it’s purely state ran genocide.

It is ####ing disgusting what the Chinese gov't is doing.

What is worse is there are posters on here that defend the China.

Appalling


To be clear this isn't a shot at Chinese people or people of Chinese heritage, rather is it a condemnation of the Government of China.
