I understand your desire to defend communism.

But really, how far does an authoritarian regime have to go, while calling itself communist, before you judge them?

What evidence would change your mind about the CCP?

Where did I defend the CCP or communism?

(I do fully support communism and have critical support for China, but that's not the question here)

What evidence would change your mind about [...]

Show me evidence that the Uyghur are being persecuted

You're a Lemmygrad user, they're going to assume that's your intent by default

The communism preference, yes. As for the CCP: They literally denied Uyghur persecution. Not even genocide, which is a claim that, due to its severity, is always going to be hard to prove, and thus debatable, I get that.

But even just the fact that the ethnic-religious group of Uyghurs are being persecuted on a large scale, had to be denied. That's pretty extreme.
