I've been saying this for a while. I've been watching Calvinists and Lincolnites corkscrew themselves into the ground over Uyghurs, while ignoring our own ankle chains. Let the Muslims take care of their own. We have enough on our plate.
Damn’ right enough about them. If we don’t fight to keep our freedoms here and expose what’s happening, then we lose the shining city on the hill that President Reagan spoke so eloquently about.
True, but it does showcase the left’s hypocrisy. They are super sensitive about the slightest insult done to one of their favored groups in the West, but when a Communist regime does things against Muslims, gays, whoever, the left ignores it, excuses it, or even tries to profit from it.
Careful, the war mongers won’t like that.
——Enough About The Uyghurs!——
If you keep your eyes peeled for an old Subaru or even a prius, you will see frayed and dirty bumper sticker proclaiming “Free Tibet”
Uyghurs have no defense against the CCP. Worry about them is naive and just stupid
So you are fine with them being put in concentration camps and worked to death? How very Christian of you.
The reason the Uyghurs are coming up a lot right now is because of what’s happening in about 2 weeks.
People think that if enough is said about them, China will be forced to take action.
The Chinese couldn’t give a popcorn fart about what the world thinks. All they care about is putting their best face forward for the world so they can see how “wonderful” their country is.
And I’ll bet NBC /Universal networks won’t say diddley squat about the Uyghurs...at least until, the Olympics are over.
“Let the Muslims take care of their own.”
______________________________________________
Peculiar how the Muslims who refer the USA as the “great satan” support a real great satanic China.
There were 37 countries who signed a letter backing China, when China called was called out for their human rights abuses against the Uyghurs, which included several Muslim majority nations, including Saudi Arabia, Syria, Qatar, the UAE, Bahrain, Sudan and Pakistan.
So what?
In medieval England, as society and the justice system were beginning to grapple with towns and cities there were a huge number of crimes that carried the death penalty. Overlooking what I take to be outliers where political leaders used the justice system to clear the playing field of opponents, there was an attempt at fairness. The problem was some people are too dangerous to let loose and there were no institutions to warehouse them. Thus, you get executions for what today would be a very long prison sentence. The long prison sentence is something only a rich and overbuilt society could afford. I’m wondering just how much money we should invest in warehousing and maintaining at a very high level, meaning kidney transplants and advanced cancer treatments, people who are too dangerous to let loose in civilized society. As a culture we obviously haven’t thought this through. Thus, in some states we spend each year on each prisoner the equivalent of sending a child to Yale for four years. Am I the only one who thinks this is crazy?

Uyghurs ,it’s what’s for dinner at the Olympics
He does have a point, and one can do both things.
Why aren’t the Saudis, Turks, Iranians, etc. worried about their Muslim brethren?
Lots of things in this.
There are Americans in bed with China financially and that determines their attitude about Uyghurs.
But we need freedom in this country and in nations “allied” to us like New Zealand, Australia and Canada and the United Kingdom.
That to me is the priority.
The wrongs done over COVID including the coercion to vaccinate must be addressed.
They are bed financially and otherwise with China.
The Turks for instance Erdogan the Turkish ruler building a canal around Istanbul with 15 billion dollars in Chinese loans.
