you can choose the status quo of widespread human rights abuses in the US, or you can choose to speak out against it. Those are the sides No, there is a third side where actually the majority of people sit: you reject the premise. There are no widespread human rights abuses in the USA. It is not a country that is constantly abusing people's human rights, a term which is worth observing, is vague and politically highly charged to begin with. Even if you take BLM, the stats show that their beliefs are wrong. The American police are not systemically racist according to actual data, let alone the rest of society. If their beliefs are wrong then it isn't a question of whether you choose the "status quo" or to "speak out against it".
