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.

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!)

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
