    good luck with that. China will stick them into a blender if they even try, as they should.

        unsurprisingly communist analysis predicted this exact scenario many years ago

        Often when I listened to prominent academics giving their takes and recollecting history, I thought to myself ‘god damn, they’re knowledgable’ - because it would take me a long time to read up, and understand the conflicts they were speaking of and be able to talk about it.

        What I hadn’t realised up until recently, is that if you keep up with the news for years on these issues, you too end up with this knowledge bank. These academics didn’t necessarily go back and read all the history books - they lived through them in real time, and each day learnt and applied communist perspectives in the face of propaganda.

          Similarly, the Marxists of this community repeatedly educated me but being more correct and predictive about things than everyone else until I read more theory and caught up.

      I know they’re usually very measured about these things, but they need to erase these guys like they erased the cia proxy force parachuted into Tibet.

        they’ll erase themselves if they even bother showing up. While they’ve been off pillaging in Syria for a decade the Chinese government has lifted the standard of living in Xinjiang and tamped down on Uyghur separatism. Typically a would be independence movement needs to, you know, be active in the land and among the people they are purporting to represent.

        If these guys think they’ll receive a hero’s welcome from the locals they’ll be sorely mistaken, and the US isn’t around in Afghanistan to funnel them support anymore. Hilariously their old friends in the Taliban will probably sell them out to China now for a few drops of aid money. It will look like some bay of pigs shit if they try to return in force. I doubt they will even try to leave Syria

          Yeah the PLA mopped up the Tibetan CIA assets quick because they could not hide. Imagine being a typical liberated Tibetan serf seeing some lama failson trying to bring back slavery. Yeah it’s reporting time.

            Reminded me of this gem from Parentis “Friendly feudalism”

            Many Tibetan commandos and agents whom the CIA dropped into the country were chiefs of aristocratic clans or the sons of chiefs. Ninety percent of them were never heard from again, according to a report from the CIA itself …

          They have a ceiling support of 45% (the percentage of Uyghurs in Xinjiang), so good luck with pulling off a separatist movement. But this is all talk. Put your feet in the shoes of these Uyghur jihadists. They could risk going through Afghanistan to get vaporized by the PLA or they could steal land from indigenous Syrians and set themselves up as Uyghur settlers like their Zionist masters. They’re already stealing land since if they decide to squat in a Syrian’s home, the Syrian can’t exactly say no.

        Afghanistan is an economically devastated pariah state. China should extend a helping hand and get Afghanistan back on their feet by economically and politically helping them. And when China does help them in this way, the Taliban will know what to do when they see a bunch of Uyghur jihadists trying to make their way to Xinjiang.

        Gotta say, after the last few years, I don’t think you people should be allowed to use the word genocide anymore

        Have to put it on a high shelf until you understand what it actually means
