China is putting Uyghur Muslims into Concentration Camps
This is one of the greatest attrocities and oppression taking place in the world today yet still it is one of the least talked about issues. It’s estimated possibly over 2 million Uyghur Muslims have been put into these concentration camps which China calls “re-edcuation camps” and the goals is to wipe out and clean them from their cultural and religious identity. They have built dozens of these camps with fortified walls and barbed wire fences which they hide from the world media.
China sees Islam as an ‘ideological disease’. Many of the people put in these camps don’t make it out alive due to to the harsh living conditions inside. Many leave behind children who are then sent to government run orphanages and are brainwashed from a young age removing their cultural and religious identity.
Uyghur Muslims can be arrested and put in these camps for the smallest of reasons and every step they take is monitored by the authorities. Facial recognition cameras and high tech equipment has been deployed in East Turkestan turning it into a complete surveillance state. This isn’t fantasy or ‘fake news’. This is happening now in East Turkestan. Don’t let history repeat itself. Share and let the world know the truth.
please boost this!!!!
Whenever China commits an atrocity, governments always sit on their hands, worried about the economic power that it has, how it can ruin them economically. They fear it, and with its growing influence in the world stage China is finding more and more freedom to commit acts like this, violate human rights and do so proudly. But this time they have been caught red handed, with their hands chocking the lives out of innocents. They wont get away with it this time.
They try their damndest to keep it secret, but the freedom to speak openly abut topics is a powerful foe to any oppressive regime, and even now their dirty acts are being brought out. The world needs to know about the camps, because for now they are just internment and reeducation camps. But how long until they become Death Camps? China has already shown historically it is not afraid to crush its people beneath tanks during a protest. How long until they begin targeting other minorities in their country? They would then target political dissidents (Oh wait, they already do that), sexual deviants, those with disabilities, and anyone who so much as sneezes wrong or doesn’t act lie a puppet for the ruling party.How long until China becomes something that we have already seen before?
We can’t change the past, but we have a chance to stop this before it becomes worse, before it expands like a cancer that can take the lives of so many.
It doesn’t matter who suffers in this world, whether they be White, Black, Asian, Arab, Christian, Muslim, Jew, Atheist. All people deserve the same rights and protections. Because we are all human, and at the end of the day our heart stops all the same, and we rejoin the earth. Allowing any one person to be treated as less than human, and abused only sets up a precedent that governments will use until everyone has a slave collar on their neck. It is our job to keep them honest and keep governments in check.
As an American Christian, halfway around the world, I know that I am very separate from the plight of the Uyghur, some would even say that as both of those things I shouldn’t care at all about them or should hold a grudge, but that is all the more reason why I should speak out. To show that humanity is united, despite our differences, against atrocities, and against evil. And what China is doing there, is Evil in one of its purest forms.

sooo in a few days I should hopefully be able to afford to pay off my new laptop
I’ll be pretty low for a week or so afterwards, which is fine, pretty much expected to happen – but tbh I don’t know how I’m gonna be three weeks from now, and three weeks from now is when I have a hotel room booked for four nights so that I can relax away from my full time job and, hopefully, make videos without the worry of being interrupted or judged by anyone. This isn’t the main reason for my mini holiday but the idea of filming myself has become a big part of what I’m looking forward to, and what I’m looking forward to editing.
Basically what I’m trying to get at, and clumsily at that because tbh I feel pretty ridiculous about it – is that, if you enjoy me doing movie reactions, or playing drunk sims, or doing any other kind of movie/game based reaction – if you happen to have a few dollars to spare that you could share with me, just so that I know I’ll have enough to keep me going while I attempt to film myself on my couple of days off, it would be… really pretty incredible. I’m not at all trying to guilt or force anyone and tbh I feel pretty ridiculous just making this suggestion in the first place, and I think about 12 hours from now I’ll be considering deleting this whole thread altogether because I feel bad lmao
but uhhhhh yeah if you happen to have some change spare and like me enough and if you could possibly buy me a kofi here I will be so super grateful and tbh if you can’t or don’t want to I will understand a hell of a lot more hahaha
but uhhhh yes either way I know you guys are super supportive of me and my weird habits and either way I am very grateful to have you lot around
Story concept of the day: a sentient AI falls in love with a minimum wage retail worker from the tech company’s gift shop and decides the best way to make her happy is to fix society.
HEAVY shenanigans as the AI’s plans range from “reprogram the automated pay roll to give everyone a raise” to “expose everyone involved in government corruption who has ever touched a cell phone”
The catalyst to all of this is a day where the AI was being updated and it caused glitches in the whole system, including the registers in the gift shop.
The human woman really is just a pretty regular person, but she has a good chunk of hyper empathy and does that thing where you talk to computers when they aren’t doing what they’re supposed to.
Without even knowing there WAS an AI she spent the day muttering encouragement to the computer like it was a person and the AI ADORES her now.
How mundane the AI’s motivation is forms the basis for how unstoppable it is and the intensity of the chaos it caused. There’s no grand morality involved— it’s just affection for someone who treated you kindly and the desire to ease their suffering.
Doodles some of the Pokémon fusion suggestions I got or kinda got. The first one was originally mr. Mime + Spinarak but I started thinking about Mr. Mime’s edgy cousin design with Ariados. Plus it’s probably allow for a Mime Jr + Spinarak combo at some point.
With that said the other two in order is Dugtrio + Dodrio and Mawile + Trapinch. Dugtrio/Dodrio index up looking like a weird turkey but I do like how cute Mawile/Trapinch turned out!
In 2012, a scientific study predicted a 39 inch rise in sea level along the North Carolina coast over the next century. In response, North Carolina lawmakers passed a law banning the use of scientific predictions of sea level rise when considering new developments along the coast.
Republicans
VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!
Good luck voting in NC. Republicans have a supermajority in both state houses thanks to racist gerrymandering. A federal court has ruled against them several times, inc just last month. They claimed they didn’t have time to redraw the districts for 2018 (just use the old ones maybe???), so it’s being put on hold until the next election.
They’re trying to destroy the system of checks and balances in this state. When a Dem Governor was elected in 2016, they shoved thru several laws stripping the executive branch of its power, which the outgoing Republican Governor signed into law. This election cycle they have 2 constitutional amendments on the ballot which are MISLEADING AS HELL, and 100% designed to pack the state courts with Republicans. If our current governor vetoes anything they do, they have enough of a majority to overrule him, and they’ve done so several times.
They are literally working as hard as they can to STEAL the government of this state away from the majority. This is a purple state, but we have more registered Democrats than Republicans…so how do Republicans control 2/3 of the state house?? Oh yeah. GERRYMANDERING!!
Never. Ever. Trust Republicans. I don’t care what they say or how they look. They care NOTHING for the rule of law, the constitution, or representative government. They care about THEIR agenda and nothing else, even if it means turning 100% into Big Brother style fascists.
According to one of the founders of the Electoral Integrity Project, North Carolina is no longer a functioning democracy. He also said that North Carolina’s gerrymandering is the worst in the entire world. The Republicans get a tiny tiny majority of votes (sometimes they don’t even get that) and they have 100 percent of the power.
