Except they still have their culture. We know what eradication of a culture looks like, it looks like schools that ban the use of native languages, instead of teach in them.
~98% of Tibetans speak a Tibetan language.
Enforcing Mandarin
Everyone in China learns Mandarin in additional to their local language, how else are they supposed to communicate with people from other parts of China?
I wouldn’t say that makes them an ethnostate (considering the obvious genetic, cultural, and language diversity among Han ethnicities) but the forced Mandarin and Uyghur re-education camps are better arguments
“Ethnostate - noun. a state that is dominated by members of a single ethnic group.”
That exactly makes them an Ethnostate.
Mandarin and Uyghur re-education camps is authoritarianism.
Han Chinese isn’t a single ethnic group. They don’t speak the same language and they’re genetically and culturally diverse. The CCP is attempting to erase that diversity to become an ethnostate.
Just because you disagree with a definition, doesn’t mean it’s wrong.
Every country is culturally diverse, but there’s still statistical common denominator. You have big differences in languages, accents, food, culture in the UK and yet 82% are white British. Same goes for Germany, Japan etc.
Every country do their demographic analyses differently, but the point is that they all can have major differences within the same ethic group.
So we should either agree to use the same definition or agree that it has no meaning and not use that word at all.
I agree with your definition of ethnostate and everything you said. But Han Chinese is strictly not a single ethnicity and it is purely to the CCP’s advantage to say it is.
edit: Han is what we might call a race, in that it’s a bunch of distinct ethnicities bundled together via social construct for the purposes of allying that group of ethnicities against the others. So China is a racist state, but not an ethnostate, because an ethnostate is “a state that is dominated by members of a single ethnic group.”
I would be wary of an ethnostate’s offer if you weren’t part of that ethnicity
Much safer to take Russia’s offer
Please do it AFTER Pu and his mafia dies, goes to Hauge or convicted domestically. Thanks.
In what sense is China an ethnostate?
Prop Chinese up as superior
Eradicating local culture in Tibet and Xinjiang

In my country people can’t communicate with others. We make it work
Is replacing textbooks with Mandarin texts just half-eradication, then?
The 91% Han Chinese sense…
