TBH Xinjiang probably can manufacture some military tech goods meant for export. Imagine how much westerners would seethe if all the Chinese drones are stamped with phrases like "proudly made in Xinjiang, China".
Okay maybe...
That's how you know it's bullshit. In their mind they probably not only believe slavery is happening in Xinjiang, but in fact they believe slavery is the most productive economic system for manufacturing even high tech goods.
From Xinjiang With Love: China Show Tries to Give Region a Rosier Image
The TV drama ‘To the Wonder’ extols the beauty of an area that is at the center of alleged human-rights abuses
In the U.S., China’s far western Xinjiang region is often associated with detention camps and a to control Uyghurs and other mostly Muslim minorities.
In China, another image of Xinjiang has dominated lately: one of a young woman running across mountainous fields like Heidi of the Alps and falling in love with a local herdsman.
For years, Beijing has denied Western allegations of human-rights violations in Xinjiang, with China portraying the region as infected by a violent strain of religious extremism that needs to be eradicated. Now, at least for a domestic audience, China’s propaganda system is promoting a far more idyllic view of the region.
And, so far, it appears to be working.
In recent weeks, a television drama, “To the Wonder,” about the love between a Han Chinese writer and a Kazakh man, has grabbed China’s attention, dominating social media and sparking a Xinjiang tourism boom.
The show is part of a ramped-up effort to showcase Xinjiang as a land of beauty and wide-open steppes rather than a dangerous backwater . The strategy has proven successful, especially among young, urban Chinese looking for escape from their hectic lives.
“To the Wonder” is one of the most popular drama series this year on the Chinese internet and the state broadcaster, attracting more than 100 million viewers online within a week of its release in early May. The head of tourism in the small Xinjiang town of Altay, where the show is set, said bookings there have increased 370% since the show began.
Some people in Xinjiang should donate to GrishaPutin and get him to draw some drones with the tagline From Xinjiang With Love.
