This is what the altright and the Republican Party see as the future of American democracy.
NOT JUST #HONGKONG
Protests are breaking out ALL OVER #Kazakhstan to oppose #ChineseExpansion.
#China‘s imprisoning #Kazakhs in its #ConcentrationCamps (alongside #Uyghurs, et al.) in #EastTurkistan (“#Xinjiang”) & Chinese workers are taking Kazakh jobs.

PrincessConsuelaPantyhoseII
Of all things I've seen on here that's come out of this craziness this is the first one that really shocked me
kirsty419
Stop buying Chinese made goods
AcquiredSire
I honestly wish this was possible so big nations could put economic sanctions on them to hit them where it hurts.
chaos021
How? I tried. Almost everything is made in China in one way or another. It's ridiculous.
StayClassyImgurV2
Fuck Chinese corrupt authorities
thefeckamisigningupwithfacebook
But these are not Chinese soldiers or police. Wtf?
Cestarian
I have some questions. Questions like why would they go shopping in a protest, and why would that girl be singled out like that?
Galdrack
Well the protests are often peaceful till the police crackdown on them. In London a guy was outside his shop when a police officer beat him>
Galdrack
to death during a climate strike a few years ago. Dude wasn't even part of the protest.
pandro
Hunh, sounds like us (america.) But srsly if people are told to disperse why do others think they can "look on" and "not be involved"?
vitaminalgas
But why?

FUCK CHINA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cestarian
You can curse china all you want, they're not responsible for this, not really. The kazakhstan government is the real culprit here.

Broooo it’s a civilian. That’s never okay

That's more like it. Actually fuck this planet, let's go to space.

I cannot kill because murder is a horrible crime. Killing those who commit horrible crimes ensures there is always a monster to someone

ButWhatIfAndHearMeOut
I'm not standing up for china but I do wanna know context
Camelspotting
There's was a big protest against China's Belt and Road policy, I'm guessing they got caught up in it.
Fifofu
But why only the teenager, the species known for making storms on glasses of water without expecting repercussions?
Ohbejuan
The context is that China has been depopulating multiple areas they forceably annexed in the 60's/ 70's 1/2
VaK4
That's not a real context you dumbass. I wann know what the teenage girl did too.
socratesboytoy
She is a populate. Getting rid of her is depopulation.
ButWhatIfAndHearMeOut
I just meant for the video what was going on that led to this
socratesboytoy
He just told you
Ohbejuan
And moving Chinese in to replace them.
thefeckamisigningupwithfacebook
But China hasn’t annexed this area. And the anti-Chinese protests were not about that. So I’m confused at your answer.
Bobeez
Why is this not a more talked about story on the news?
The2020ElectionWasStolen
China owned. Along with Hollyweird.
Direwolf05
Doesn't fit the narrative.
Wyrdthane
The news is not your friend
Noob3rts
Why was she arrested?
arkadun
Yes
FukFoxNews
Probably just to keep the people scared and demonstrate power.
harrymunster42
She probably sneezed on a Tuesday
Occationalrickroll
FiftyShadesOfMascarpone
Mistaken for a protester, I guess. They had orders to break up the gathering & anyone who happened to be out & about was shit out of luck.
baldil0cks
if anything like what theyre doing to uyghurs, its for like the slightest suspicious thing, my dad bought a phone off a street kid he 1/2
baldil0cks
knew, comes by the next day to find he's been abducted
baldil0cks
he stopped going 2 years back, he said most the villages were just ghost towns, that the crops were there but no one left to sell anything.
LayceKayse
Shit, I'm sorry to hear. It's sad that kids are literally being abducted. Is there any way anybody who isn't government can help stop this?
wtfiamfake
Kazakhing without a permit.
TuggSpeedmann
Probably attractive to one of the guards...

WeAllLiveInAUserSubmarine
1 person actually sourced an answer; everyone else ran with whatever alarmist narrative they felt like. You all need to sort news better.
TheDrunkenHuntsman
Well, really most of the responses are smartass comments. There was no news to be sorted.
LayceKayse
So, then what's the real news here? Why is a random teen being arrested by military? Do you even know or are you just quoting some asshole?
WeAllLiveInAUserSubmarine
I don't know why a random teen being arrested; if you don't know either, maybe don't jump straight to outrage and instead look for answers
LayceKayse
Even if I were outraged, I have good standings to be considering this is a kid getting arrested for what seems like nothing 1/3
LayceKayse
2/3 while you're sitting there and quoting someone who says that what news is reporting is an "alarmist narrative" and you're agreeing 2/3
ComcastLover
Resisting arrest?
Shuey
It's China... For being
Theweekendumper
This is getting bad... I hope this ends peaceful.
theobstruction
It won't. It never does.
HeroOfKvatch1
We both know it won’t.
vIRLWarlock
It's China. My money is a "correctional" facility that beats and brainwashes her, or kills her. Particularly someone around that age >
vIRLWarlock
They remember the chief demographic of the people they mass murdered in Tiananmen Square and are very harsh on that demographic as a result
Xanofar
After reading an Al Jazeera article, I'm not sure this was really Chinese influence so much as a bad government to begin with.
thefeckamisigningupwithfacebook
Yeah. It’s a pity because HK needs support. But LYING to get their support? Dick move.
Xanofar
(I still don't like China though, and absolutely believe they have a bad government, I just think this title is misleading in blame-placing)
onlyhalfghost
Seems to have something to do with wide protests of the government of Kazakhstan being in China's pocket.
worldsokayestspeler
Jesus fucking christ how many dictatorships do we have to massacre before people understand that people should be treated like people
Vergilincrocs
Maybe you should treat them as people and not massacre them.
thefeckamisigningupwithfacebook
America doesn’t massacre dictators. In fact it rarely ever even goes to war with em.
idkalan
In fact the US will actually help said dictators stay in power, so long as they'll deal with the US
worldsokayestspeler
I was mostly thinking of hitler tbh
thefeckamisigningupwithfacebook
Yeah. The Russians (Soviets) did him. We (the allies) didn’t even get to Berlin.
worldsokayestspeler
Also did you just assume im american?
thefeckamisigningupwithfacebook
I did just assume your nationality yes.
Vaziera
The official story so far is "riot police officers believed the girl was participating in an unsanctioned rally "
Galdrack
IE the same excuse used by police to arrest people in the US all the time.
SDhn2a
Nah, in the US, rallies don't need to be 'sanctioned'- AFAIK, you'll only get arrested if things turn violent
Galdrack
Nope MLK was arrested in an unsanctioned protest so have several others. As for "violent" the violence is often started by police which >
SDhn2a
*at the present, I guess I should add. I'm aware of civil rights history.
Galdrack
In the present the police arrest several today for protesting in Washington. >
Galdrack
kinda negates that. Not to mention most of the people arrested have nothing to do with the "violence".
