CNN on China Olympics: Hey, USA's a Human Rights Abuser, Too!
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 12/06/2021 11:28:42 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

In a disgusting display of just how little the liberal media loves the United States, CNN has lumped America with China, Saudi Arabia, and Iran when it comes to human rights abuses. The foul comparisons came in a New Day segment on the news that, in a protest over Chinese human rights abuses, the US will not send any government officials to the Chinese Olympics, although American athletes will be permitted to participate.

That led panelist and former ABC correspondent Mara Schiavocampo to use "human rights" organizations on the left to smear the United States into a kinship with some of the world's worst human-rights abusers.

It’s worth noting there are a number of international organizations that continue to call the United States out on our own human rights abuses, including things like the death penalty, which puts us in the company of Saudi Arabia and Iran, the highest incarceration rates in the country [sic, world?].

So, I think if we're talking about our place in the global stage, holding others to account is incredibly important. But directing that same energy at protecting [sic] the United States’ human rights abuses is also important.

Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

I agree. We are running a Gulag in DC right now.

Vaxx mandates are human rights abuses.

They must be banned by any entity, public or private.

Betwen Biden, Fauci, and various Grand Moffs, I’d say say China has a point.

Wow. CNN for once nails it.

Right here in the good old USA the Biden administration is indeed abusing inalienable rights.

That’s how they make the moral equivalence argument. Even though we don’t have government agencies that arrest people and take their organs out to put in other people.

Well, everybody’s heard about that guy who after a night of heavy drinking woke up in a bathtub filled with ice and one of his kidneys was gone. :-)

In some ways the beotch is right. Pretty sure I saw that the US is in the same league as China and North Korea allowing abortions beyond 20 weeks with much of Europe at 12 or 15 weeks.

Well by forced lockdowns, vaccine mandates, withholding of viable treatment and govt censorship via leftist social media companies… they’re not wrong.
