[My article in @Independent: Mulan is nothing more than a nationalist drama that whitewashes the Uighur Muslim crisis in China]
We urge @Disney to take down this controversial movie from its platform & clarify its stance on the issues regarding Xinjiang.

Disney claims to entertain, inform and inspire people around the world through unparalleled storytelling, so it is worrying that it is cooperating with those who allegedly systematically violate human rights to achieve its goal!

Oops. Looks like #Mulan is no longer searchable on Weibo. This should be a lesson for Disney: You can pour US$200 million into a project, hire pro-government actors, deny concentration camps' existence, pander to Chinese nationalism — and STILL get screwed big time.

Hey Wumao trolls: Don't forget to toe the government's line! Your latest correct position is…… to join us and #BoycottMulan 😂😂
Quick recap of why:
• It was filmed in XJ
• Liu Yifei backs the HK police
• Donnie Yen wears a blackface
• US$30 for a bad remake

1. Unbelievably upset & horrified to see how #wildfires rage across #WestCoast, blanketing #California, #Oregon & #Washington in apocalyptic orange glow, destroying towns, burning homes & killing many.

Once the people have made up their minds and safeguard the city's last light of hope, democracy and justice is the only way out. Just like the democratization history in places like South Korea and Taiwan, the regime's reign of fear cannot kill the people's freedom-seeking soul.

After all, it is the authoritarian rulers that turn the whole civil society into enemies, lies into truths, critical voices into dissents and taboos, and ordinary citizens into modern martyrs. letter.wiki/conversation/8…

5/ Over the past year, we have endeavored to safeguard the values of Hong Kong people and prevent our home from turning into another Xinjiang. We have constructed barricades against this descent, not only in the streets and the establishment but also in the community...

4/ But if I suffered this misfortune, I hope the world to stand with HK. The most unbearable ordeal for a political prisoner is watching one’s home fall into authoritarian grip while others continue to harvest economic & other gains from financial hub as though nothing happened.

@joshuawongcf
3/ I have imagined what would happen if I were detained and sent to China. The physical mistreatment and deprivation of liberty and human dignity seem inevitable. Being separated from my beloved family and friends would also be heartbreaking.

@joshuawongcf
2/ I faced harassment from what appear to be state-supported personnel. Most often, they have waited outside my meeting places and taken photographs, possibly to report my whereabouts to national security agency. Or they are simply sending a message: that they are watching me.

[My oped in @washingtonpost: China is targeting and arresting HK dissidents. I could be next.

1/ To many dissidents in HK, one of the immediate effects of the new national security law is being forced to accept hostile strangers walking into our lives.

@joshuawongcf
13/ As the incident has sparked global concerns, I call upon Disney to disclose the details of its agreements with Xinjiang authorities, as well as all the subsidies, funding, assistance and instructions that it has received from the authorities.
519
@joshuawongcf
14/ As the movie is widely considered as an attempt to spread propaganda & whitewash China's cultural genocide, I also urge Disney to suspend the screening of such a controversial movie and clarify its stance on human rights violations regarding re-education camps in the region.

@joshuawongcf
10/ As media reports, there are at least 7 re-education camps located all along the highway from the Turpan airport to Shanshan desert where the filming took place. Turpan was also the first documented case that political indoctrination was used against Uyghurs by the authority.
524
@joshuawongcf
9/ In fact, Mulan was filmed in 2018, the same year that China staged the hardest suppression on Uyghurs in the region. The film was also shot in locations where all these re-education camps have been documented.
525
@joshuawongcf
8/ It casts more doubts on whether Mulan is the propaganda masterpiece that Disney works hand in hand with the CCP government to whitewash the cultural genocide and human violations on ethnic minorities in the region.
