    oh, well…that’s not what’s happening here. I try not to conflate everything with one thing.

    The leaps these commenters make are broad.

      It seems to me that you’re guilty of being evasive, like when I asked you to clearly state your position on the quantity and quality of the re-education camps in Xinjiang. You’re just wasting your own time more than anything, by lacking a firm and coherent stance and sources to support your argument, you weaken every statement you make.

        I’m clearly answering every question and including sources when requested.

        that is a novel brand of evasion.

          Even in this very comment, you refused to clearly state your position on the quantity and quality of the re-education camps in Xinjiang. This is evasion.

              I asked you the same question here and here, and I’ll do so again in simpler and clearer terms here:

              1. What is going on in the re-education camps in Xinjiang, with sources?

              2. What is the extent, ie the scale, of the re-education camps in Xinjiang, with sources?

              3. Why do they exist in the first place, with sources?

                1 and 2 have been answered previously, do you want the official answer for 3?

                  You haven’t answered 1 and 2 to my knowledge, you’ve been cagey and evasive. I would like you to answer all 3, complete with sources, in a single comment. That would save us all the most time. If you’d prefer, you can directly link where you’ve answered and sourced your answers for 1 and 2 if you wish to stick by those answers, but based on parsing your comment history, you haven’t done so yet.

                    clear answers, facts, sources are not evasive.

                    maybe you just don’t like the answers you are receiving.

        not me.

        1. I’m reporting facts rather than judging

        2. there’s no bias on the east or west from my comments.

        obviously I can’t speak for the bias if all of these other excited commenters.

        I’m interested in actions and intentions, regardless of country.

        not just actions and intentions, but complete historical events within context.

          No you aren’t

          there’s no bias on the east or west from my comments.

          Yes there is.
