Not really, the party is a totalitarian structure built to manage power over the enormous Chinese conglomerate, but it's no longer religious in nature, it used to be, back until 1975, but once they decided to switch to state enhanced capitalism, the religion of communism ceased to be, beside the personality cult to mao

It's a pretty shit state of affairs. China can get away with anything, as they buy all our stuff and send us back cheap products. We are addicted to China.

yeah, we're no longer in the 1800s when our superior technology allowed us to impose inequal treaties and get our way in any manner we wished, even against demographic power houses...

My question is: Where is the statements by public atheist activists to distance themselves from the Chinese activities?
Why should there be? I for one approve. Freedom from religion at work. And look at the collateral benefit: Thousands of kidneys, livers, lungs et cetera are being made available to more deserving individuals.

I wish the Chinese come to Australia and set up their camps here. Our local Baptists, JWs and especially all members of the ACL (Australian Christian Lobby) need to be put under control. Would I shed a tear at the sight of Israel Folau entering one of those camps? Not bloody likely.

The more I think of it, the more I like the idea. Imagine our fundies, evangelists and associated nutcases being resettled in camps. I don't know how many of them there are, but the number could just be high enough to cause the amount of homes they vacate to burst the real estate price bubble. And of course their church's assets would be confiscated. That would make up for some of the taxes they never paid over the decades.

Has been known for some time, but now there is a wave of reports based on internal documents having leaked.

My question is: Where is the statements by public atheist activists to distance themselves from the Chinese activities?

https://www.breitbart.com/asia/2019/10/ ... happiness/
A group of 54 United Nations members issued a statement Tuesday defending China for building over 1,000 concentration camps to imprison, torture, indoctrinate, rape, and kill Muslims, crediting the camps with building “a stronger sense of happiness” in the country.
For reasons I don't understand, right wing we love Trump 'Breiitbart News' keeps pushing these stories.

A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.
