When will the US and the EU strongly condemn these human rights abuses? I mean, we condemned the Soviet Union strongly again and again even though it was the world's second largest economy with the world'a largest military and nuclear arsenal, why does China get a free pass?
... it's the trade, isn't it?
- GreenToad5 8y agoIt's not just the money from trade. It's the political power and blind self destructive yet predictable force of pride (saving face). Traditionally, the mainstream media and academia would be the rallying force behind this nation and it's citizens denouncing something like this. Both of these entities are now heavily partisan globalists whose ideals (along with greedy crony capitalists) have perpetuated this reality. To condemn this short sighted consequence would be admitting a flaw in their ideology which would cost them political power and even worse, to have to admit they were wrong. (Where is my progressive utopia hiding this time around?)
- pimmen 8y agoI have a problem seeing how globalist media have perpetuated Chinese human rights abuses towards Muslims. I would say the Chinese Communist Party is not globalist, and I see the media and academia rallying against China more than politicians do. I can't name a politician vehemently against globalism being against what the CCP is doing to these Muslims. And why do globalists have no qualms about condemning Myanmar's persecution of Muslims? Aung San Suu Kyi enjoyed a lot of Western support for decades before the genocidal acts.
