Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Otherwise what is your point. I'm not sure

Nope. I have worked with some Chinese nationals that are in this class of people, and they have explained to me how it works.

Also, fwiw, we have had many lovely dinners and I consider them friends. Unlike you, I just have no illusions about how the Chinese system works.

And, unlike you, I'm not going to pretend that the Uighurs don't exist:

This is a discussion about money and finances, not how the Chinese government treats the Uighurs. Can you take your racism somewhere else?

This is why POC do not trust white people, especially white women.

They act like they're your friends, they definitely want to eat your 'ethnic' food, but they have no problem sh*t talking about your entire race as a monolith behind your back.

But hey, it's okay because they have "fill-in-the-blank race friends".

I think this is the first time I have heard the Chinese version of "I've got a black friend so I'm not racist."

We have been discussing how China and India have lifted hundreds hundreds of millios of people out of extreme poverty in the last 30 years. Yet you feel the need to shift the discussion to the Uighurs. No one said the Chinese government is perfect, but they have lifted hundreds of millions out of extreme poverty. That still remains a fact despite the fact that you have a Chinese friend.

They adopted market reforms, but no one looks at China as a free market. You however are still a racist.

Answer the question: how is that racist?

Is this what the world has come to? - saying tha China has lifted millions out of poverty by adopting capitalism makes you a racist?

[Anonymous]

^ obviously the insult "racist" has lost all meaning here on DCUM.

Gawd.....take the pro-CCP Chinese crap out of the money forum please. CCP politics doesn't belong in the money discussion forum. Go to the politics forum.
