Western Empires Continue to Lie about Xinjiang Despite Offers of Transparency from China

By Leonardo Galletti

If the Western narrative about the “Uyghur genocide” is real, why would China invite the EU to Xinjiang? I have seen it suggested by numerous people that this so called genocide has taken as many lives as the holocaust. I have a few points I would like to make about this outrageous lie:

“Historian Noam Chomsky criticized the book and its reception as one-sided by outlining economist Amartya Sen’s research on hunger. While India’s democratic institutions prevented famines, its excess of mortality over China — potentially attributable to the latter’s more equal distribution of medical and other resources — was nonetheless close to 4 million per year for non-famine years. Chomsky argued that “supposing we now apply the methodology of the Black Book” to India, “the democratic capitalist ‘experiment’ has caused more deaths than in the entire history of […] Communism everywhere since 1917: over 100 million deaths by 1979, and tens of millions more since, in India alone”.

Historian Michael David-Fox criticized the figures as well as the idea to combine loosely connected events under a single category of Communist death toll, blaming Courtois for their manipulation and deliberate inflation which are presented to advocate the idea that Communism was a greater evil than Nazism. In particular, David-Fox criticized the idea to connect the deaths with some “generic Communism” concept, defined down to the common denominator of party movements founded by intellectuals. Historians Jens Mecklenburg and Wolfgang Wippermann argued that a connection between the events in Pol Pot’s Cambodia and Joseph Stalin’s Soviet Union are far from evident and that Pol Pot’s study of Marxism in Paris is insufficient for connecting radical Soviet industrialism and the Khmer Rouge’s murderous anti-urbanism under the same category.

Journalist William Blum, a critic of American foreign policy, stated that it is “a book that is to the study of communism what the [fabricated] Protocols of the Elders of Zion is to Judaism”. Journalist Seumas Milne, writing two articles for The Guardian in 2002 and 2006, argued that the impact of the post-Cold War narrative that Stalin and Hitler were twin evils and therefore communism is as monstrous as Nazism “has been to relativize the unique crimes of Nazism, bury those of colonialism and feed the idea that any attempt at radical social change will always lead to suffering, killing and failure”. About the book, Milne stated that it “underplays the number of deaths attributable to Hitler”.”
