Will anything be done? Nah, of course not. Worse things have been happening for ages, perpetrated by less powerful groups, and nothing has been done.

Is it too late to get a patent on re-education and interment camps? Yeah, facists and dictatorships suck, but this could be our way to stop them with really high usage fees.

Apart from being a terrible human rights issue … does it ever really work? It probably works as a deterrence like every labor camp / gulag / prison does: better conform than getting put there. But do people really “convert” from being Uighur Muslims to Han Communists?

The malign spirit of Mao lives on in China.

I wonder, even in these repressive commie/fascist internment camps, do they separate the parents from their children?
