All good stuff.
How do you get the MSM to distribute it or even report that it exists?

More than a million ethnic minorities like Ilham’s father are believed to have been coerced into forced labor or interned in camps in Xinjiang, according to government and academic research. The Department of State reported that “entire communities” of Uyghurs have become ghost towns as a result of government repression in the region.

Welcome to the Green New Deal. Be sure to ask your congressional representatives if they support slave labor or disagree with the Department of State’s findings about it when they tell you that they are “committed to climate action” in their speeches.

I submit those questions every time my representatives hold a “community forum for constituents”. So far, their handlers have refused to consider presenting those questions in public forums for answers, so I have no idea what my representatives may think.

I also see no such questions asked in the Main Stream Media, on television news or in any other public places.

Remember, according to woke progressives, “Silence is Violence”. I remind my representatives and their handlers of that as well, but still, all I hear is crickets.

Virginia’s Governor elect is taking a very hard line against green energy policies. Worth watching as this struggle unfolds.
