For years, Chinese leader Xi Jinping has pushed ethnic minority groups like Tibetans and Uyghurs to adopt an identity rooted in Chinese nationality and allegiance to the ruling Communist Party.

Now, that push has been codified into a sweeping new law that reaches into classrooms, neighborhoods and homes – and gives Beijing the right to target people outside of its borders that it believes violate its rules.

The statute, officially known as the Ethnic Unity and Progress Promotion Law, came into effect on July 1. It bans acts that “undermine ethnic unity or create ethnic division” among China’s 56 officially recognized ethnicities, which include a Han Chinese majority that makes up over 90% of the country’s 1.4 billion people.

      Until it is proven to be one, because so far you only reinforced my belief that this is likely fake and forced American propaganda. To see the fact that you cannot even say you want to stop America from funding Israel, from committing genocide alongside Israel, tells me that you aren’t criticizing China because you care about the truth, but to distract people from what America is doing, to feel better about the fact America is a terrorist country that deserves to be stripped of all its power and global influence. Cheap “gotchas” won’t work either. You already showed what a true piece of shit you and more than half of America is.

      You don’t do shit to stop Israel, the fuck are you gonna do to China?

              You keep showing your impotency to call out America’s war crimes. You live there? Are you a vote blue no matter who moron? I want to let you know, that it is thanks to people like you and MAGA that the USA won’t outlive China anymore. There is a high chance the USA won’t exist as we know it in the next 100 years, and it’ll be thanks to people like you, who were so adamant about whitewashing its crimes.

              Have at least anything to say about all the guns you give to the Narcos here in Mexico that have been used to kill over 30,000 of my people every year? Hundreds of thousands of innocent Mexicans dead just to fulfill America’s whims of making a profit. Mexico alone, without counting South America, you have easily killed millions of innocent lives for something as dumb as weed. We give you cheap hand labor in exchange of peace. How fucked up is that? I wish I was born in China. I wish I had the money to move there, but no. I have to deal with people like you every day instead. America is hot garbage, it’s a massive shithole. It deserves to be punished, and it includes Mexico. There is so much blatant corruption and racism here, I don’t care anymore. Whatever it takes for idiots like you to understand that you need to become a human or fuck off
