@herenow brings up a valid point. The country's internet laws are growing more and more strict by the day, so we ask everyone to tread extremely lightly regarding subjects such as these. Please understand GK's position in the Chinese internet universe.
Thanks very much to everyone who uses the site and contributes to the forums. GK wouldn't be what it is today without you.
Sensible post from the editors. There are plenty of other forums available to discuss Chinese politics.
Nobody's been writing about the train station incident anyway.
That happens a slot. The hijacking of threads or the going off on the original OP thread topic. :-(.
I understand that a lot of Uighurs were pretty much run out of town by the powers that be after the attack - does anybody know details? I think my local noodle guy, who made great noodles, was one of them. He was open for the next week or so, there was no excitement or weirdness in the place, and then I noticed his place was closed.
Dude...
@GoK
I will tread carefully, for the longevity of our local website and for myself.
@Cahzriel
I suggest you do the same. Your ardent contribution is greatly appreciated. I do not condone the down-votes that censor non-spam/non-troll free speech.
That said, I've yet to see any concrete evidence, nor from retweets. Out of curiosity, can you elaborate on some of your Muslim friends' grievances in Kunming.
In respect to the U.N., Trump-appointed Nikki Haley has not always been the most impartial U.S. ambassador, particularly amidst a trade war in which the administration is using media to tarnish China's hegemonic credibility. As you may know, Nikki's seat holds influential swaying power in the council body.
Fact-check-less news and misinformation spread quickly and profusely in the age of social media.
@Geezer
As elder statesman, your insights are valued as well, granted sometimes "ricochet" off-topic.
I'm interested if any moderate Muslims reside within our GoK community, and can attest to the oversimplicity that merely ethnic Han Chinese 回族 Muslims attend Kunming mosques. Passing by, I see a lot of worshipers of mixed geography that suggest more than two categories of Muslims. Perhaps some 回族 themselves are genetically mixed with those near the Autonomous Region.

For some, Kunming is like Home 2.0. GoK is the extension English source covering this region. Other online platforms won't get this personal on local news & events, particularly from forum members who reside close-to-heart . Make no mistake, this topic permeates Kunming now, maybe more drastically in the future, not just in the past as witnessed 301.
lie a dog with a bone, or picking scabs, just cant leave it alone
