    The Chinese author of this article doesn’t care about educating American reactionaries, they care about setting the record straight. What they care about, and is the point of the article, is far more important than radicalizing the very few American reactionaries who would actually read the Chinese backed source.

    It’s far better to assert that the Anglo governments are being hypocritical on Xinjiang and the treatment of Uyghur, while themselves trying to cover up a long history of genocide, than it is to pick and choose words for maximum effect of educating reactionaries.

    A Chinese author is pointing out the long history of Anglo oppression, that also happened to touch China and is currently a factor in PRC - HK relations, and y’all are too busy being upset that they put “embedded in [their] DNA” in the title of the article.
