What exactly is the situation of the Uyghur in China's Xinjiang since 2014 up until now? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

My question aims to know what kind of procedures did the Chinese government (allegedly) take since 2014 in Xinjiang, and why to begin with. And what can we know about the region in the current time, like can a random tourist go and see with their own eyes the truth, and maybe film it ?

There are Youtube videos and a Wikipedia page "documenting" human rights infringements, while China and the Marxist forums deny anything harmful. Now that almost nobody is bringing it up, I want to know what was legitimately documented. Investigating the origins and later developments of the case on my own would be so hard.

The BBC was full on pushing the propaganda that Iraq had WMDs, were they credible then?

Were they credible when pushing for every single US war and proxy war since?

Are they credible in their full support for Israel, and condemnation of the Palestinian resistance as terrorism?

Remember that time the BBC got caught editing photos of vloggers in China to make it look dystopian, then quietely edited the photos after getting caught?
