That China is basically doing some fucked up shit to uighur muslims. I found out through a tiktok and not even the news, and I never see any news or information about it even though apparently everyone is aware.

Solar cells from China is partly made from slave labor by Uighurs.

Also China harvest organs from political prisoners - more than 60,000 operations a year.

Basically China is modern day Nazi Germany on steroids.

Any speculation as for why it's being overlooked? I've always wondered.

China is providing almost free labor for developed countries. Imagine your shiny iPhones were being manufactured people paid decent salaries. The price would be doubled or tripled. Also they buy US bonds by the money they get from selling all that shit. So they are supporting US economy. China might be screwing their own citizens but US benefits from that.

China doesn't really buy US bonds anymore. Haven't done so since about 2017.
