As much as I dislike the Chinese Autocratig Regime, if they're right, then they're right.

Uyghurs are in forced labor camps. That seems like worse bullying.
We really have no high ground here. Our prison industrial complex is much larger and we have way more incarcerated people per capita than china. The USA is 5% of the world’s population and we have 25% of the worldwide prison population. One in three black men will spend time in the United states prison system. We need to worry about the genocide being committed through mass incarceration and the police state here before we start judging china. Forced labor is alive and well in our country. You should watch the documentary 13th
Afaik people in usa are now too. Imperialists are the worst, no matter the color of the rag they are proud of.
although i get your point, the usa, for all its many problems and atrocities, isn't specifically arresting people based on religion or ethnicity and hauling them into forced labor camps.
there are arguments that systemic racism, combined with forced labor in prisons, creates a situation in which there is de facto racial slavery (because statistically we know some black people will be wrongly arrested due to racism and forced to be slaves in prison), but despite this also being awful, it's not the equivalent of an explicit policy rounding up a religious minority for work camps
isn’t specifically arresting people based on religion or ethnicity and hauling them into forced labor camps.
good point
They are literally just arresting and deporting brown people now with no due process
again, good point. i don't think what is happening in the USA is acceptable
No, it’s just arresting visible minorities and sending them to another country’s “prison”(read: hell-hole death camp). They’ll even do it to US citizens! At least one Republican was calling for that Bishop, who was from New Jersey, to be deported, even, and there’s the current situation with the guy in El Salvador who is very likely dead. Visible minorities are met with disproportional amounts of force from police far more often than white people even if they’re innocent and complying. And do you really think that the prison labour camps in the US are only slavery if someone was wrongly arrested? Newsflash, I don’t care what you did, prison is a bad enough sentence without being forced to work for pennies in terrible conditions.
The Uyghur situation is far more blatant and official but don’t kid yourself into thinking that the US isn’t doing the exact same shit. You should not need it in writing when the actions are all there in front of you and many times the people who built those systems basically admit what their true goals were. Do something about now, don’t wait for it to be enshrined in law.
it's a good point. many of the things being done in the USA are terrible
although i get your point, the usa, for all its many problems and atrocities, isn't specifically arresting people based on religion or ethnicity and hauling them into forced labor camps
statistically speaking, that's what regular prison in America is - vastly overrepresenting black people, making them do forced labor at an average of $1 an hour, and with the highest incarceration rate of any country in the world even compared to uyghurs in xinjiang
(that being said, we should absolutely spread revolution to xinjiang. specifically maoist revolutionary propaganda, because that would be both appropriate and funny)

No, the US prefers ERASE:
Expedited Rendition And Summary Execution.
We just haven’t built the camps yet.
We have. And "their slave camps are worse than our slave camps" isn't much of a flex.
