I have been avoiding weighing in on this, because I don't support the law's unapologetic policy of assimilation. I think this article's statements about article 63, however, are not correct that the law allows pursuit of people absent a charge, or court, anywhere in the world. [SHORT 🧵]

A few additional thoughts: 1. China isn't alone in this moment for trying to establish a cohesive national identity at the expense of minorities. The codification of assimilationist policies should probably be viewed in the global context as well as China's domestic historical context.
