Aren't there sources other than Adrian Zenz to use in this sort of centrist-socialist article? ('Xinjiang oppression is real but stop doing imperialism over it')

    Wilkerson used to appear regularly on TheRealNewsNetwork with Paul Jay, he's informative in understanding how the State Department/MIC manufactures consent in Imperialist adventures. He was one of Colin Powel's top guys in leading the US invasion of Iraq which he now regrets. He's not a leftist, he even jokingly called Paul Jay a Marxist.

      I'm aware of that, I shouldn't have said "he's awesome" but it is awesome to have someone with his access to information become an anti-war advocate. A lot of information about US foreign policy seems to come from ex-military people questioning their values.
