This is such a disgrace. Naomi Wu is one of the most interesting personalities out there. Absurdly enough, she was always very careful to not paint China in a negative light. She also managed to show everyday life and culture in China from an inside perspective, which is rare enough. It's a real shame and a huge loss to the maker community. Let's hope this gets some publicity, which may help protect her.
The problem was that after Vice published her info, she basically lost any protection she had. Also how no foreign press is really saying anything or asking about her. She was protected when China thought the world was watching her; now that they know they’re not, she’s been silenced.
Her girlfriend is also Uighur, which had her in another precarious situation. She’s said she can’t leave China because her girlfriend can’t.
What the fuck are you talking about? You white supremacist scumbags are so full of shit.
I’m not white, buddy.
Which makes you being a white supremacist even worse you terrible idiot.
I mean this in the most Southern way possible:
Oh, honey, oh bless your heart, you tried.
To do what what?
Who tf is Eva?
Typo. What did I try?
Aren't you just replying with some catty pasta because you've got nothing real to respond with?
No, I really wasn’t sure if it was a weird power-play I’ve had folks online do where they THINK they’ve found out my real name and are are using it to throw me off.
And oh, bless your heart, you’re still trying. You have yourself some kinda day now.
Still got nothing eh? Hard luck.
