John Kerry Asked About Slave Labor In China: "Not My Lane," "My Job Is To Be The Climate Guy"

U.S. climate envoy John Kerry was asked about Chinese slave labor at a press conference Wednesday at COP26 following a joint statement with China on enhancing climate action

"How in the several months of meetings behind the scenes with China did you bring up some of those very contentious issues such as the use-of-force labor in Xinjiang for building solar panels. How have you addressed it and how did you overcome that in reaching this?" a reporter asked Kerry.

"Well we're honest about the differences," Kerry said. "We certainly know what they are and we've articulated them but that's not my lane here. My job is to be the climate guy."

The dispassionate arrogance of the ruling elites is truly obscene. No one can trivialize human misery like a leftist seeking power.

Kerry is in charge of the weather hoax, not anything real. That’s probably a good thing in a way.

"We rationalized destroying villages in order to save them. We saw America lose her sense of morality as she accepted very coolly a My Lai and refused to give up the image of American soldiers that hand out chocolate bars and chewing gum. We learned the meaning of "free-fire zones," "shoot anything that moves," and we watched while America placed a cheapness on the lives of Orientals. We watched the United States' falsification of body counts, in fact the glorification of body counts. We listened while month after month we were told the back of the enemy was about to break."

- Also John Kerry, back when his lane was to be the "call US servicemembers war criminals" guy. I guess he isn't done placing a cheapness on the lives of Orientals if it keeps the promise, no matter how remote, of a Nobel prize somewhere in the mix .

With my debating about slavery in the South on another thread comes the realization that we’re no better today. Thanks to the free trade deals with the Chinese communists, we are again getting cheaper products from slave labor. The only difference is that instead of importing the slaves, we’re exporting the plantations.

Kerry is an example of the worst among us.

I have pity for those who are so biased and/or ignorant, they admire the likes of Kerry.
