Not sure anyone but Xi Jinping can answer that, but I think the main issue is that Islam is incompatible with the CCP. I think most belief systems which assert that morals are objective are similarly incompatible.
You cannot believe that the CCP is the final arbiter of moral good if you believe that god is the final arbiter of moral good. And the CCP cannot accept any other final arbiters of moral good than the CPP because then they can't run rough shot over their population.
Just to clarify, I'm not religious myself, but I do see morality as objective.
It's a shame Western states institute the repressive laws that they do, as for the most part, the Western states are vastly better than the CCP on civil liberties, and the few deviations from an otherwise strong commitment to liberal democratic principles prevents the West from having the kind of moral high ground it would otherwise have.
It would also be nice if other people who are annoyed by my genuine question answered it or explained what’s wrong with it.
It actually does the opposite, and takes care to not blame the entire group. Right after 9/11, I remember two main domestic messages:
1. A LOT of flag waving. Like, flags on everything.
2. Islam is a religion of peace/Al-Qaeda corrupted Islam/not all Muslims are terrorists/condemnation of racist attacks against Muslims, etc.
They do not. Many of the men raping Uighur women are socially friends with Uighurs. Many of them are Uighurs themselves. Some of them are probably socially friends with the women they're raping.
They're not raping women because that's somehow part of the Chinese government's plan to assimilate Uighurs, rather, they're doing it because they want sex, they're in a position to get it, they're not going to take no for an answer, and they think they can get away with it.
Which more liberal routes are you thinking of, and how would the government actually implement them with the resources at their disposal?
