Since 2014, the Chinese government has been
actively detaining, indoctrinating, torturing, and
exterminating Uyghur Muslims in the Xinjiang region of the
country. It has been correctly defined as
a genocide in which, so far, anywhere between 1 and 2
million innocent Uyghurs have been locked in internment
camps. While forced into captivity, they have been
subjected to countless human rights violations — they
are physically and sexually abused, deprived of food for
prolonged periods of time, forced to speak Mandarin instead of
their own Uyghur, many women are chemically sterilized, and an
untold number of them have lost their lives.
One of the main groups behind
the nightmares in Xinjiang is the Xinjiang Production and
Construction Corps (XPCC) — and the U.S. company Apple has
recently come under fire for directly supporting them by
hosting over a dozen apps created by XPCC. Sign the petition to demand that Apple openly
condemn the genocide and breaks all ties with XPCC
immediately!
The horrific violence in the
name of Uyghur eradiction by the XPCC is well known to the
United States — so well known, in fact, that the U.S.
Department of Treasury imposed sanctions on the group, barring
any U.S. group from working with them. But apparently,
Apple doesn't think this applies to them, nor do they seem to
care why the sanctions were put in place to begin with.
Namely, to discourage the wiping out of an entire ethnic group
of people. Sign the petition to urge Apple to do the right
thing and stop supporting XPCC!
Thank you,

P.S. Apple has
blood on its hands until they openly condemn the heinous
actions of XPCC. Sign the petition. |
