  • Do Turcs need to be accepted to be happy?I do not think so. Of course It would be nicer to live in a positive environment . Please stop taking germans for something greater than you, thy are not!

  • STOP barbaric chinese occupation, genocide, terror, discrimination, assimilation and over 45 times illegal nuclear-tests over UYGHURISTAN (EAST TURKISTAN)

    and, barbarian chinese terrorist bastard THIEF:

    GO BACK home, BEHIND / OUT OF East Turkistan to the OTHER SIDE of so-called HISTORIC chineseWALL !

  • By the way, not all Uyghurs in China think exactly like what you guys overseas do. For the same reason, Chinese in different nations have different values and perceptions. You probably cannot take for granted that Chinese Uyghurs are going to fight hand in hand with you, coz they have different ideology.

  • It sounds really desperate to you, isnt it? You could not choose to stay in Xinjiang and you are not fully accepted by Germany. The only thing that Germany wants from you is to take advantage, you say curse all Chinese to be fucking pigs, but you can change no reality. Bless you .
