China’s secret internment camps
…and the internet detectives working to find them.

China has been quietly detaining its population of Uighurs, the country’s Muslim minority, in internment camps. First-hand accounts from inside the camps paint a brutal picture of torture and political indoctrination. At first, China denied the existence of these camps and tried to cover them up. But as a network of academics and activists uncovered evidence of the camps’ locations, and the reality of what’s going on inside, China changed its story.

I was born and raised in China and I deplore this behavior that China is doing to our ethnic minorities. They promote equality while also doing shady stuff like this, it’s really a shame😢

Its a great initiative for the growth of China, no seriously. We let this people into our country see what happened to India. President Xing Ping is the boss.

這是一場“宗教世俗化運動”的教育營，這非常棒，可以有效的遏制宗教極端主義和恐怖主義，世界上沒有比教育營更仁慈更科學的處理方式了，事實就是如此……

I have one simple question: would you rather be a Muslim in Xinjiang or a Muslim in Gaza?

Can't find the Debancheng camp on Google Maps anymore. It's just "sand" lol

Those are factories and schools, the Uyghur population has grown from one million to 1,200, and Gaza is almost destroyed, so why not report on Gaza?

Maybe if Uyghurs hadn't committed terrorist atrocities in Xinjiang, China wouldn't operate these camps… Unlike the west, China is not messing around and I applaud them for it.

Reprehensible as Yemen concentration camps. Not to mention the Guantanamo Bay detention camp. This makes me wonder whether it is only a Chinese problem…

It’s funny…. MOST people who I tell this to, immediately get defensive and say that I’m lying and there are no such camps in China lol. Anyone who denies these camps exist – you are a terrible person and you are contributing towards these camps remaining in service.
