I used to ask myself how the German citizens allowed a fascist to take over like Hitler did. Being a citizen in the US right now, I don't wonder that anymore. Edit: You people trying to explain what a "dire economic situation" Germany was in at the time are only proving my point. Trump also pointed out many of the problems in the US that people were facing and capitalized on it. His solutions are wrong, but he won people over nonetheless. Would you use the same excuse "you should have seen the economic state of the US at the time Trump was elected, the middle class was really suffering and that's why they voted Trump in" ? There's so much more than this reductionist argument, and my entire point was really trying to point out that fascism doesn't just happen overnight. It happens slowly as the citizens are subject to mass propaganda and cults of personality. Checks and balances are stripped away and power is consolidated among yes-men. The similarities between the rise of trump and the rise of hitler are strikingly similar, except hitler was a great orator, and trump only uses his racism as a tool to sow discord. Regardless, I sure hope the ending changes in this parallel. Vote in 2020 people! No matter what.
@@Demonstraction Hitler used politics. He used the Treaty of Versailles (Which was the dumbest thing the allies could've done, every country is to blame for WW1 they all fought for their own selfish reasons: France because they want their territory back that they lost to the Germans a couple decades before, England because they wanted to be the only largest fleet in the world and Germany was expanding their own, Germany because their ally Austro-Hungary declared war to Serbia etc etc.) Hitler used the Economic crissis, the large amount of people who lost their jobs, The idea of being "Backstabbed" by the new gouverment. (Trying to get WW1 veterans on his side) Germany was suffering as a country because of that Treaty and Hitler used it to his adventage. That's why German citizens voted him in

I feel for that mother. I burst into tears when her daughter said "I missed my mommy." I don't know what I would do if I was forcibly separated from my child.
The little girl saying, " I told you not to show your tears" was even more heartbreaking, bc that's what she heard while her mother was gone. Showing your tears is a bad thing...
Oh PS I also highly recommend people look up "Operation Earnest Voice"(OEV in short). That explains a lot of, clearly botlike but pro US comments in here. This is the name of the US official botarmy. Leaked by Assange and others 2014, and since then not even the government denies the existance anymore. However the media still covers it up, which is no surprise once y ou know what "Operation Mockingbird" is all about. The next thing I highly recommend readers to check out. And while you are at it throw in Patriotic Act and Espionage Act as well.

Oh my god. The scene with the mother and child where the little girl is telling her mother not to cry. There are tears streaming down my face, nobody should ever have to go through that and be separated from their child for two years.
You are right. And sorry to sound horrible but, at least they got reunited. In the south border of USA are thousands of children separated form their parents, some even are with disappeared status. How many of them are going to be reunited? When? It's been 3 years since this policy started and it doesn't seem to end.
it happens all the time there. thousands of kids separated from their families because of their race or something or rather theyu have no control over. I wonder why our government doesn't do anything about that.
We need more brave people like you in this world, those who raise their voices regardless of nationality, race and religion, wherever an innocent person is wronged.

The video ended 10 minutes ago, and I'm still crying on and off as I go through the comments. utterly UNACCEPTABLE. No parent or child should ever go through that. Fuck I'd REALLY LIKE TO STOP CRYING.
It could just be a miss translation, or the child saying “I don’t want to see you cry, please don’t show tears” kids say shit like that all the time, she looks pretty young, but considering the rest of this article I wouldn’t be surprised if she was told to say that or brainwashed or something...
No one in the West or India, or Latin America is afraid of criticizing and attacking China on behalf of what the Uyghurs are going through. This subject is literally almost always in the news.

Remember when we were all learning about the holocaust in grade school and wondering how people in other countries were clueless what was going on and why there weren’t many who explicitly sounded the alarm about the death camps - And then we thought something idealistic to ourselves like “Wow, if anything like that ever happens on such a massive scale again, there’s no way that we’re gonna stand around and pretend to be ignorant!”? Well that’s what’s happening here - Case in point.
Because no one cares unless it actively affects you or its profitable. Do you think the Nazis were pushed back because they had concentration camps? No, its because they threatened other nations.
I feel like part of the problem is the way that we teach history. Many curriculums do not connect topics with how they'd be relevant to modern times and they allow their students to feel distanced from these events.

@John Smith Not like this, other countries don't have concentration camps for specific ethnicities being "reeducated." American prisons don't force religion and language changes
@John Smith Don't deflect. Jailing criminals isn't the issue. The existence of terrorists within an ethnic group isn't groups to marginalize the entire ethnic group. Guantanamo Bay is fucked up just like China's treatment of the Uighurs is.

Largest collection of shoes since the holocaust may sound like a joke, but it's quite on-point. It's been a long time since I visited the Holocaust Museum, but one of the things that hit me hardest was going through a room with a large pile of old shoes; realizing what each shoe represented makes the whole thing a bit less abstract. I remember not being able to look away from a small, faded, dusty pink little girl's shoe.
This is exactly what I was thinking about, personal belongings framed that way are exactly what helps contextualize the holocaust. Jewelry, shoes, any of these things remind you of the weight of what was done and helps to humanize the victims.
Also brought me back to those rooms in that museum in DC. There are so many more good people who need to use their voice and be listened too.Thanks for sharing. Hope everyone has a good week!
Same here. "I told you not to show your tears" from a 5 or 6 year old baby tears at the soul. She should never have to grow up so fast. It's the same thing that happens to Black children in the US. They are never allowed to Just Be CHILDREN. And that hurts my soul.
Go back and watch the video of Philando Castille being murdered by a cop while sitting in the passenger seat With His Seat Belt Still On. His 4 year old daughter is in the back seat and witnesses her father's murder AND that same cop holding the gun on her mother. That child says the same thing to HER mother. Wipes her mother's tears as her dead father is one foot away. She tells her mom not to cry.
She said don't SHOW your tears...which has the even more sinister implication that the child understands: It can have bad consequences to show honest feelings or opinions.

A secular nation: An excellent idea and really the only way I can think of that actually ensures a reasonable measure of religious freedom. Of course, claimed religious beliefs cannot present a true and demonstrable risk to others, nor can they infringe on other's rights to practice the same freedoms or any of their other rights, but beyond that, religion or irreligion can be a personal, community, or cultural component to a healthy mind and a healthy person. An "aggressive" secular nation: Basically dystopia. A different flavor of zealot. A gross violation of human rights. It makes all the same mistakes as a theocracy while claiming to be under some other banner. Past atrocities can be attributed to this mindset and if it doesn't just die and fall away, they will be repeated. There are good religious people. There are good irreligious people. A society should value members on their contributions and their moral character, not on how they arrived at those conclusions.

Speaking of awareness, mega genocide of indigenous Native Americans, and their population in Continents of America 500 yrs ago was around 15 millions, while European population in Europe was around 20 millions.Today, Natives population at 15 million, while European population, in Continents of America + Europe, at a staggering 'ONE BILLION'! For instance, 200 years ago here in USA, around 3 million Germans came, and now there are 65 millions German-Americans; while 150 years ago, around 2 millions Irish came, and now there are 45 million Irish-Americans. While 500 years ago there were estimated 5 to 6 millions indigenous Native Americans in U.S.A, before Christopher Columbus arrived, today there are only around 2 million indigenous Native Americans survived. Imagine this scenario, if Native American people cross the Atlantic, invade and Colonize Europe, and slaughter most Europeans, and put the remaining populations in tiny reservations, for 500 long years. How would Europeans feel about it? Think about it. All they need is their beloved motherlands back, the lands that their ancestors forebears had lived through thick and thin, endured through hardships and all for generations. Besides, indigenous Native Americans in Colonized lands of Anglo British, Spaniard and others are more of the same. Kill the indigenous Natives and whoever is left, marginalize them and create artificial poverty, once that poverty becomes crime and drinking, the media points to the poor and blames them to continue to stigmatize the 'other' community, scumbags, etc. Amazing fact that Indigenous Natives had built such great civilizations as Mayan, Inca and Aztec without outside help, and all from the scratch, and all on their own, since they had been cut off from the rest of the world for ten of thousand of years. In other words, they actually are great and proud people. Imagine what would it be like today if Native Americans had possessed some sort of nuclear weapons to defend themselves, and their beloved motherlands from invaders Colonizers? The answer is they would still have their own beloved motherlands, plus their population comparable to that of European population. I've no doubt about that. In my humble opinion, it's about time to decolonize the Colonized lands, and return it to rightful owners Native American people. Remember, notorious global cardinal crime like Slavery & Colonialism had long been over, why on earth is this another notorious Colonization still lingering on? In fact, China has made no secret that it would one day help liberate Continents of America which it sees as rightfully belonging to Indigenous Native American people.

For those saying the story has already been covered, Last Week Tonight is not the entiriety of Media. The issue has been extremely low-key despite its magnitude and urgency. The scope of the surveillance state that the Chinese government is building ( Ofc the American surveillance system is pretty bad too but with a robust democratic set-up and free citizenry, the chances of it being abused by the state is considerably lower) has been expanding unabated and doesn't seem to draw the kind of attention that something of that nature would be expected to.
I disagree with u only on the point that the risk of ur state abusing said system is significantly higher than u think. Just look at how Trump is "using" federal Troops at the moment - there is just nothing democratic about that, is there ? (please excuse my spelling and grammar, I´m from Germany)
@@notinsertnamehere7581 I agree but the difference lies in the fact that the entire world and the American media takes note of state excesses unlike in China where state control and excesses have been extremely normalised and the media is not free to cover such stories.

When people ask how was Germany able to do what they did, this is how. Nobody will do a thing.
or can at this point.
I used to ask myself how the German citizens allowed a fascist to take over like Hitler did. Being a citizen in the US right now, I don't wonder that anymore.
Edit: You people trying to explain what a "dire economic situation" Germany was in at the time are only proving my point. Trump also pointed out many of the problems in the US that people were facing and capitalized on it. His solutions are wrong, but he won people over nonetheless. Would you use the same excuse "you should have seen the economic state of the US at the time Trump was elected, the middle class was really suffering and that's why they voted Trump in" ? There's so much more than this reductionist argument, and my entire point was really trying to point out that fascism doesn't just happen overnight. It happens slowly as the citizens are subject to mass propaganda and cults of personality. Checks and balances are stripped away and power is consolidated among yes-men. The similarities between the rise of trump and the rise of hitler are strikingly similar, except hitler was a great orator, and trump only uses his racism as a tool to sow discord. Regardless, I sure hope the ending changes in this parallel. Vote in 2020 people! No matter what.

@@Demonstraction Hitler used politics. He used the Treaty of Versailles (Which was the dumbest thing the allies could've done, every country is to blame for WW1 they all fought for their own selfish reasons: France because they want their territory back that they lost to the Germans a couple decades before, England because they wanted to be the only largest fleet in the world and Germany was expanding their own, Germany because their ally Austro-Hungary declared war to Serbia etc etc.) Hitler used the Economic crissis, the large amount of people who lost their jobs, The idea of being "Backstabbed" by the new gouverment. (Trying to get WW1 veterans on his side) Germany was suffering as a country because of that Treaty and Hitler used it to his adventage. That's why German citizens voted him in

2020 in a nutshell
Oh my god. The scene with the mother and child where the little girl is telling her mother not to cry. There are tears streaming down my face, nobody should ever have to go through that and be separated from their child for two years.
I sobbed for whole 5 min. This impotent rage I feel when I see her telling her mother not to cry.
You are right. And sorry to sound horrible but, at least they got reunited. In the south border of USA are thousands of children separated form their parents, some even are with disappeared status. How many of them are going to be reunited? When? It's been 3 years since this policy started and it doesn't seem to end.
What got me was the maturity that girl had to say 'I told you not to cry.'
That broke me.
That was absolutely brutal to watch
it happens all the time there. thousands of kids separated from their families because of their race or something or rather theyu have no control over. I wonder why our government doesn't do anything about that.
We need more brave people like you in this world, those who raise their voices regardless of nationality, race and religion, wherever an innocent person is wronged.
Notice how the little girl said: "I told you *not to show your tears*" damn, that hit hard.
she shouldn't have to grow up that fast. hit hard, like a punch from the Incredible Hulk straight to the gut. Ow, right in the feels. The video ended 10 minutes ago, and I'm still crying on and off as I go through the comments. utterly UNACCEPTABLE. No parent or child should ever go through that. Fuck I'd REALLY LIKE TO STOP CRYING.
It's like Elsa's parents told her "Don't let them in, don't let them see, be the good girl you always have to be".

Largest collection of shoes since the holocaust may sound like a joke, but it's quite on-point. It's been a long time since I visited the Holocaust Museum, but one of the things that hit me hardest was going through a room with a large pile of old shoes; realizing what each shoe represented makes the whole thing a bit less abstract. I remember not being able to look away from a small, faded, dusty pink little girl's shoe.
This is exactly what i was thinking. I visited Ausschwitz 12 Jears ago and I never forgot the room full of shoes, luggage, human hair...
It was. I cringed hard.
This is exactly what I was thinking about, personal belongings framed that way are exactly what helps contextualize the holocaust. Jewelry, shoes, any of these things remind you of the weight of what was done and helps to humanize the victims.
I visited Yad Vashem. There was a hall of portraits photos. It was so terrifying.
Also brought me back to those rooms in that museum in DC. There are so many more good people who need to use their voice and be listened too.Thanks for sharing. Hope everyone has a good week!
The whole situation is upsetting, but the child telling her mom don't cry broke me

"I told you not to show your tears" from a 5 or 6 year old baby tears at the soul. She should never have to grow up so fast. It's the same thing that happens to Black children in the US. They are never allowed to Just Be CHILDREN. And that hurts my soul.
Go back and watch the video of Philando Castille being murdered by a cop while sitting in the passenger seat With His Seat Belt Still On. His 4 year old daughter is in the back seat and witnesses her father's murder AND that same cop holding the gun on her mother. That child says the same thing to HER mother. Wipes her mother's tears as her dead father is one foot away. She tells her mom not to cry.

That's wonderful and all, but it is a realistic question to ask. The average person can't do squat to change that or HK's situation. No offense, but it's a bit naive to believe you can, unless you live in China or you're in a position of power and willing to risk war with China.

@Priscilla Corvonero thank you for taking the time to reply, but you still haven't addressed the fact that your sources are owned either by Beijing or by the Kremlin. Whataboutism isn't really a reply to that.
Whilst you are right to question all sources, the fact that some of the groups sounding the alarm aren't American (ASPI was found with a 30s Google, don't have time to dig more atm) also casts doubt on this being a us conspiracy.

No mother should have to have their child comfort them into not crying, let alone everything else that poor woman went through.

A secular nation: An excellent idea and really the only way I can think of that actually ensures a reasonable measure of religious freedom. Of course, claimed religious beliefs cannot present a true and demonstrable risk to others, nor can they infringe on other's rights to practice the same freedoms or any of their other rights, but beyond that, religion or irreligion can be a personal, community, or cultural component to a healthy mind and a healthy person.
An "aggressive" secular nation: Basically dystopia. A different flavor of zealot. A gross violation of human rights. It makes all the same mistakes as a theocracy while claiming to be under some other banner. Past atrocities can be attributed to this mindset and if it doesn't just die and fall away, they will be repeated.
There are good religious people. There are good irreligious people. A society should value members on their contributions and their moral character, not on how they arrived at those conclusions.
True that. I am an atheist through and through but what we are doing in china is no better than the worst theocracy has to offer.

Speaking of awareness, mega genocide of indigenous Native Americans, and their population in Continents of America 500 yrs ago was around 15 millions, while European population in Europe was around 20 millions.Today, Natives population at 15 million, while European population, in Continents of America + Europe, at a staggering 'ONE BILLION'! For instance, 200 years ago here in USA, around 3 million Germans came, and now there are 65 millions German-Americans; while 150 years ago, around 2 millions Irish came, and now there are 45 million Irish-Americans. While 500 years ago there were estimated 5 to 6 millions indigenous Native Americans in U.S.A, before Christopher Columbus arrived, today there are only around 2 million indigenous Native Americans survived. Imagine this scenario, if Native American people cross the Atlantic, invade and Colonize Europe, and slaughter most Europeans, and put the remaining populations in tiny reservations, for 500 long years. How would Europeans feel about it? Think about it. All they need is their beloved motherlands back, the lands that their ancestors forebears had lived through thick and thin, endured through hardships and all for generations. Besides, indigenous Native Americans in Colonized lands of Anglo British, Spaniard and others are more of the same. Kill the indigenous Natives and whoever is left, marginalize them and create artificial poverty, once that poverty becomes crime and drinking, the media points to the poor and blames them to continue to stigmatize the 'other' community, scumbags, etc. Amazing fact that Indigenous Natives had built such great civilizations as Mayan, Inca and Aztec without outside help, and all from the scratch, and all on their own, since they had been cut off from the rest of the world for ten of thousand of years. In other words, they actually are great and proud people. Imagine what would it be like today if Native Americans had possessed some sort of nuclear weapons to defend themselves, and their beloved motherlands from invaders Colonizers? The answer is they would still have their own beloved motherlands, plus their population comparable to that of European population. I've no doubt about that. In my humble opinion, it's about time to decolonize the Colonized lands, and return it to rightful owners Native American people. Remember, notorious global cardinal crime like Slavery & Colonialism had long been over, why on earth is this another notorious Colonization still lingering on? In fact, China has made no secret that it would one day help liberate Continents of America which it sees as rightfully belonging to Indigenous Native American people.

For those saying the story has already been covered, Last Week Tonight is not the entiriety of Media. The issue has been extremely low-key despite its magnitude and urgency. The scope of the surveillance state that the Chinese government is building ( Ofc the American surveillance system is pretty bad too but with a robust democratic set-up and free citizenry, the chances of it being abused by the state is considerably lower) has been expanding unabated and doesn't seem to draw the kind of attention that something of that nature would be expected to.
I actually forgot about this topic up until now. And honestly I'm pretty ashamed of it.
You are delusional about America.
I disagree with u only on the point that the risk of ur state abusing said system is significantly higher than u think. Just look at how Trump is "using" federal Troops at the moment - there is just nothing democratic about that, is there ? (please excuse my spelling and grammar, I´m from Germany)
@@notinsertnamehere7581 I agree but the difference lies in the fact that the entire world and the American media takes note of state excesses unlike in China where state control and excesses have been extremely normalised and the media is not free to cover such stories.

Think of the money which should going to schools or healthcare being spent on bombs.
That eyelash chick tho, eternal respect.
She could only speak about the Uighurs during a eyelash tutorial because TikTok (Chinese company subservient to the chinese comunist party) baned any explicit video whose content they disagree.

Eternal Disrespect to world leaders and media companies who aren't reporting on this who have never reported on this.
Helder Moura she got banned from tik tok for it
it's become a thing on tik tok to make makeup tutorials or DIY's with audio talking about real world issues (racism, transphobia, Covid, etc.) it gets pushed by the algorithm and your videos are less likely to be deleted.
the child comforting her mom is so incredible, What a child! 17:43
"i told you not to show your tears, mom"
it tears my heart apart.
It also concerns my that such a young child says her mother should not show her tears, where did she learn that crying is not okay? Crying is a human and often logical thing.. Everyone should be able to cry if they need to...
I'd say it's pretty much the opposite of incredible. Wrong on so many levels and just plain terrible.
@scifinatic Tizz The US has been breaking international law at the Mexican border for over a decade. It's a human rights violation under the guise of anti-immigration, and innocent children are being put into concentration camps of a different name.

"Nike using questionable labor practices? I'm so shocked!" Said no one!
@mac423 Right, after Kaep got broke off NIKE broke off employees by cutting their discounts, hours and changed uniform policy to be more lenient which seems nice but it's just a collective so they didn't have to give employees as much free merch anymore saving the money they probably gave him. They don't care.
Take a knee for the hate crimes right?
Chinese nationalists: we have done an internal investigation and we have found ourselves not guilty
lol
bro，media just concern with how they profit，they dont even care about if the news are true.As a chinese，i can absolutely tell you there is no such thing as genocide
the people see it most clearly，the
truth is hidden behind cuz western governments are trying to turn the blame on us，and its unbelievable for many people to believe all of this，please go and learn chinese history，you’ll get to know what the country， the government is like，do me a favor
@@刘我-w7e dude I study a lot of history, and yes China has been historically fucked over by western powers and its dreadful, the opium wars being the famous things that happened, but this genocide and atrocity is happening, tianamen square happened and China says it doesn't and now this is happening as well and they are denying it, you as a regular citizen isn't facing the hardships nor do I wish them upon you but they are happening
@@ReinAfterDark lol，medias talked about bullshits without evidance just try to blame us like a hundred years ago，you had better figure out what is Regional ethnic autonomy，what they said is completely divorced from the fact
and about genocide，i think american and canadian have more speaking rights，they do bunch of stuffs even more brutal.i cant deny china is weak a hundred years ago，but it wont befucked up again.Listen up，time will prove everything.they are ignoring the fact，and spreading those lies through the Internet.if i am you，of course i will be mislead by it.
you dont even know how much
discrimination do chinese suffer.
and you know what，the so called
interview is not even genocide，medias are taking advantage of what you even dont understand.
of course im a resident，and as a
resident，i will defend my country
not only a patriot will.China will face up to all criticism, but not groundless accusations.I'd be happy to argue with yall guys.
any genocide in tiananmen square？I don't think that you know better than I do

@John Smith She needs to learn about the world and the terrorism of the ccp, who took her mother away for two years, perhaps? The "Politics" of Totalitarianism is dangerous. Especially to freedom.

@@zephyermin7035 Is this supposed to be a competition?!
Not a single muslim country covered this issue, respect HBO
Because most Muslims countries these days are concerned about money and if they boycott china then they will stop getting products from there because most products are from china and many other stuff like that
They are hypocrites.
"History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes."
This quote can be used to describe a mind boggling number of world events.
Edit : Removed Mark Twain's name because there is little concrete evidence that the quote is from him.
I completely agree with the statement, but just a tid bit of knowledge is that even though that quote is commonly attributed to Mark Twain, in reality, there is no evidence to support he said it at all.
I don't think I'm wrong, but in thr off chance I am, please do let me know (I've wanted to use that quote in quite a few essays but haven't).
The sad thing about this is this happened to the holocaust also where allies intelligence knew about the holocaust in 1941.

It almost sadden me that this is happening. What the whole point teaching about the holocaust if we letting happen right before our eyes.

This is where Disney filmed part of their scenes in Mulan?? And Disney was *unaware? Hollywood is such a sellout.
Are you sure Disney didn’t film there to raise awareness in a subtle way without making China rain hell on then
@@meganlamb7665 You're an optimist. I admire that. I personally don't think Disney is capable of that kind of altruistic subterfuge. Occam's Razor - it's all about the China money.
Are you sure what John said is truth or full of shxt? Search 'John Oliver uygur debunked' you'll find out the truth.
Xinjiang region is really huge, it's larger than most Europe country. Blaming Disney just for filming there is so damn unfair. It's like someone blaming you for support communist in China just because you use Tik Tok or any made in china product.
I know right? That is terrible! They also used the english language to write the script! Can you believe it? Let's stop using english now, it's for a good cause!
About time more people started talking about this.
... ahhh no... how about how Isreal is treating Palestinian citizens, abuses, murders and property disposessions... terrorism on Palestinian children AND the open air prison called GAZA which isreal has blockades over a decade... which are also PALESTINIANS.
THE United States does nothing to stop , protest of talk about this holocaust happening right now by this supposed allie.
And yet nothing will be done. Money talks.

Money talks... but you have no money
billy kobilca yes what’s happening in Palestine is absolutely horrific but so is what’s happening in China. You can’t compare the suffering of people, we just need to make sure we do something to combat them!
Well American your lil world would be shattered by CCP if they really become the top dog of the world. Because they'll definitely try doing what they did to Uighur into you if you small enough. Or eroding your culture by their own culture
Have fun

TikTok is actually an incredible source for information if you follow the right people- I learned about this very issue on TikTok weeks ago, as so much about LGBTQIA+ issues, BLM protesting and activism tips, and so much more.
@@helenlundy1468 so are you a source of information. i am not not talking about the usual data collection on social sites we all accepted. If you google the guy who reverse engineered tiktok, he said he never found anything like that. Tiktok is by far the worst. Oh found a link: www.boredpanda.com/tik-tok-reverse-engineered-data-information-collecting/
Helen Lundy I’ve honestly learned so much from Tik Tok
Gen Z is slowly becoming the greatest generation.
The video have been taken down by Tiktok short time after she posted, her account also got banned
The Chinese dilemma is diversity and the inability of CCP to control the regions. Decentralization runs the risk of disintegration like the former USSR. Hence the need to control Uiqhurs. I am no fan of big governments, which are often part of the problem rather than the solution. On awareness, John is right. Our values, beliefs, and awareness mold our attitudes and behaviors.
“Don’t cry mommy. I told you not to let your tears show” that is the most haunting sentence I’ve ever heard. That will stay with me forever.
