If so, was it polled somewhere?

Forced sterilisation (birth rates are down 60% vs about 10% for the rest of China) and forceful reeducation? They don't care about the language as much as the shared cultural identity separate from China.

Did you even look at the carrd? If you're not gonna engage with the sources, then it's pretty clear you're not arguing in goog faith and there's no reason for this discussion to continue

I'm trying to talk in good faith, but I don't have 10 hours to read about it. I've only researched about 1 or 2 hours. But I'm definitely not just taking your website at face value.

If you want to call the discussion off, I'm fine with that. This thread has given an adequate sample of hexbear ideology.

Right, so you didn't read my carrd and then linked a different source instead (super good faith) that I completely refuted (apparently you felt no need to respond to my complete rebuttal]. So you didn't read the comment or the response to your rebuttal, and yet you're saying you're acting in good faith because you don't have a lot of time/haven't done a lot of research? Whatever, then don't act like you're qualified to have an opinion.

But I'm definitely not just taking your website at face value.

What does this even mean? "Face value"? It's a collection of sources. Seriously, if you don't have the knowledge to even respond to my points, much less my complete refutation of your own points, don't ghost respond to me acting like I've said something crazy to get support in another thread. It's cowardly and pathetic.

Hey thanks for chiming in! I didn't notice it was the same user. It's pretty sad someone can be this resilient to challenging their own worldview. If they truly were so secure in their knowledge they would interact with the sources provided, yet they fail to do so. At some point you can only assume it's because they're afraid at some level.
It's really disappointing
