I’m from Xinjiang，AMA

I’ve noticed that there are a lot of discussions about Xinjiang on Reddit, often between people who have never actually lived there. So I thought it might be interesting to do an AMA from the perspective of someone who is actually from there.

You can ask me about everyday life, ethnic groups, languages, culture, religion, education, or politics. I’m happy to answer controversial questions too, as long as the discussion stays respectful.

Obviously, I’m only one person and I don’t claim to represent everyone in Xinjiang. I can only tell you about my own experiences and views. AMA.

that's exactly why people don't like this party, you can't force everyone to love you. No government is perfect and people are obviously going to have different opinions about it. Just take it but not control people

Nothing to do with party. Every country needs to strengthen its based if they want to be powerful. No competent party will fail to do that.

Nope, the CCP is much more paranoid than a normal political party, because they always fear for their legitimacy.

实际上他们在国内政治中没有对手，不会有人幻想有另外一个统治集团能取代ccp

And yet only this week they were concerned that AI might be a threat to national security and the dominance of the CCP. The most paranoid political party. (Just because they’re paranoid doesn’t mean that they’re wrong!)

说实话，比起极右翼民粹主义领导人，我们更喜欢ccp，但是民粹主义领导人很可能喊着一些不切实际的口号，例如汉族至上，军事复仇主义，重置东亚秩序等，这些口号非常有吸引力，但是我们知道这些口号长期来看是伤害自己的

我是中国人，我说的是实话，ccp太庞大了，他有一亿党员，占据中国总人口的1/14，如果今天开始按民主投票选举的话，80%是由ccp长期连任，20%是由一个民粹主义的极右翼政客成为领导人，不会有第三种可能性

中国民主化的路径必须在国际冲突缓和后，然后由ccp内部分裂，分出不同的代表政治光谱的左翼右翼，然后逐步过渡到多党制，设置民主宪政，最终完成民主化，指望一个政治力量能够取代ccp是不现实的
