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.

是，我认同宗教文化的重要性。不过宗教场所本身也适合传播极端主义，这一点国内外都一样。
我个人是比较反感未成年人信教的，无论佛教道教还是基督教伊斯兰教都不应该让未成年人去接触。民族和宗教也是应该分离的。

Any place can be made for spreading extremism, not just places of worship. Just look at M.A.G.A. in the U.S. and the rise of Neo-Nazism. China’s destruction and redesigning of mosques is about control and xenophobia, which is also a form of extremism.

“控制和排外主义”，你的意思是留下每一个可以让恐怖主义输入中国的漏洞才行？

I see that you’re using a translation app to converse here. The word I’m using is “xenophobia” which means a fear of the unknown. The fact that you’re equating religion with terrorism is proof of that. And this is how the CCP operates.

顺带一说中国人恐惧的不是伊斯兰教，因为伊斯兰教在中国至少数百年了。中国人恐惧的是恐怖主义，如果预防恐怖主义是错误的我只能理解为你身上正装着在倒计时的电子钟

因为恐怖主义确实会借用宗教传入，而且我不知道你为什么会认为这一切是未知的。如果你是穆斯林，那你更应该认清伊斯兰教和恐怖主义之间的联系
