I didn't say I had any beliefs that needed shattering. I looked through the comments of the linked reddit AMA and some people talked about the spread of propaganda but that's no more compelling than your comments saying the same thing. I'm not sure what I was supposed to take away from that and I hope that you have more substantial reasoning propping up your beliefs.

Back to my original question, in your estimation what is the level of misinformation about Uighur treatment by the CCP? Are Uighurs treated no differently than anyone else in China? Are Uighurs being detained or questioned due to their religious beliefs? Are reeducation camps real? I'm sincerely interested but calling news articles misinformation is not in itself compelling in any way.

You're very vocal about your belief that Uighur mistreatment in China is Western propaganda and are quick to discredit any source that says otherwise. As far as I've noticed you defend any jab at China in the same way.

Personally I'm very much against capitalism, the destruction its wrought on the world, and the countries that legislate in favor of short term gains for the wealthy over basic rights for the other 99.99%. The US is a shithole and the greatest offender of them all.

That said, just because I'm not on team America doesn't mean I'm on team China. That stinks of "Republicans are terrible so I have to be a Democrat." Both can suck and legitimately criticizing one doesn't mean you're in league with the other though I don't get the vibe that you agree with that sentiment. You're quick to say that anything negative said about China is propaganda.

In this particula case, I'm curious to what degree the information is false. Is it a 100% fabrication and there is absolutely no different treatment of Uighur Muslims by the Chinese government? Are Uighurs asked nicely to consider a different religious belief but nothing more? Are reeducation camps real, but Uighurs are treated really well there?

Please cite your sources and explain why they're more credible that the sources that claim some fuckery is going on with the Chinese government in respect to Uighurs.

No one is arguing that RAM is persistent after reboots..

@yxzi 's original comment suggested regularly restarting your device, which coincincides with the assessment that Pegasus can live in RAM. I see it as nothing but great advice and I can't figure out why it illicited your responce in a post created by you about "staying safe from Pegasus."

What type of phone do you use as your daily driver? iPhone? Android?

If Pegasus required physical access to your device that would be relevant. However, it's installed through several other means and according to articles I've read can live in RAM. So restarting regularly despite never having an unattended device seems prudent.

One of the articles about it (I think from The Guardian) said that it can run in RAM which was one thing making it harder to detect. It said that it was present until a reboot.

If I could make a suggestion, in the future share the link to the article and not the link to the reddit post about the article.
