For years, Chinese leader Xi Jinping has pushed ethnic minority groups like Tibetans and Uyghurs to adopt an identity rooted in Chinese nationality and allegiance to the ruling Communist Party.

Now, that push has been codified into a sweeping new law that reaches into classrooms, neighborhoods and homes – and gives Beijing the right to target people outside of its borders that it believes violate its rules.

The statute, officially known as the Ethnic Unity and Progress Promotion Law, came into effect on July 1. It bans acts that “undermine ethnic unity or create ethnic division” among China’s 56 officially recognized ethnicities, which include a Han Chinese majority that makes up over 90% of the country’s 1.4 billion people.

      If Israel has a right to exist all the white people need to get the fuck out of north America. And you’re not sorry, you’re shit-stirring because the left loves to infight and purity test, I know because I do it too.

          I’d prefer effort is spent on actually possible real life efforts that are actually workable and don’t require about half the planet to die. Unfortunately that means catering to the descendants of a war god cult that has spent most of history fucking shit up in an area they invaded before getting kicked out. But short of killing them all or destroying the land we’re not getting rid of either Israel or white people in America.
