The problem is not with the editing. The problem is that men and women dancing and singing together in happiness is literally just appealing to westerners, being of similar culture to Uyghurs I’d only be part of this practice as a humiliation ritual. If they knew what “harmony” looks like to Muslims, the atmosphere would have been at least similar to Taliban’s propaganda videos, where women have their own space where they have their own practices and taught by a fellow woman, or they appear in videos with their scarf.

Another thing that went passive but is really huge is when the guy at 00:32 was asked how often he prays and he answered with the playbook “China’s laws define schools as public places. And in public places religious activities are not allowed”. Anyone familiar with Muslims knows that they pray 5 times a day as obligation, like at the very least 200 million Muslims keep this defining practice, the guy being made to answer like this is straight up persecution for his religion,
and it shows the Chinese officials don’t even know what they’re dealing with, they’re like “yeah it’s another religion where they have a day of practices every week”.

The worst part is that the officials basically admitted that they took these people based on predictions ? Like even if we ignore the ethical dilemma, you want me to believe that statistics&probability predicts which person will commit crime with ? That’s like a book example of bad math imo.
