First, thanks for sharing this article. It has opened my eyes to why a lot of Chinese people are fleeing away from their country and reasons why they don't like it in China, in General. For the NY Times to cover this would help open eyes to many people.
Anyways, I am surprised to see that there are still things like this happening in the world and this is probably why China has a lot of rules, including that they are a large country, to begin with, to consider stuff like
- Internet Censorship [1]
- Monitoring every citizen [1]
- Closing discussion boards [2]
- Limiting religious sentiments [3]
There is really something deep going on with that and being told that "Everything is going to be okay" and "To Be Grateful" towards the detention of the family is absurd. It would be hard for the victims to have any say once they are branded "terrorists" in another country. They would just be detained and hope for the best, and that's just not good.
I'm just hoping this doesn't happen to other places because this clearly shows how China wants to take control over everything and once you give resistance to them, they would execute the
"Absolutely No Mercy" rule to you.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Censorship_in_ChinaThis is the thing I think we need to note. Which is horrible, and shouldn't be tolerated at all in then modern day. Even further, I think that the craziest part is that we swore to never allow another extermination of people to happen again, and to never tolerate the atrocities that were put upon the Jews, Disabled, Old People, Women (etc), to happen again in the modern world.
But that's not what we let happen. We've let China FUCKING HARVEST THE ORGANS OF THEIR prisoners while these people are still alive. They're not feeding the people, they're dying of starvation. We should right now sanction China to end the atrocities that they're committing upon the Muslims and then upon the people in Hong Kong.
In Hong Kong they're literally firing upon people with live ammunition to stop the protesters. They're SHOOTING at protesters.
We should never stop in our attack on China for the horrible things that they're doing in the world. They won't stop unless we send a clear message with clear punishments for their actions.
