Anyone who values diversity or civil rights has to acknowledge that the Chinese Communist Party is the largest scale force seeking to destroy diversity and civil rights. Conquered people with culture different than the majority Han culture like the millions of Tibetans, Mongolians, and Uyghurs are often punished for practicing their culture or speaking their language. Uyghur families are forcibly separated, Uyghur adults are forced to labor in sweatshops far from home for little pay, and Uyghur women are forced to get abortions. These people used to learn their cultures and languages in local schools, but now are forced to learn Han culture and speak the language of the Han majority, Mandarin. If you are serious about civil rights and diversity, then you have to be fundamentally opposed to the Chinese Communist Party and their policy of violent forced assimilation of their minorities.
