So effectively you are arguing that since the US did bad things in the past, China should be allowed to imprison millions based on their religion alone? How do

  No, effectively I'm arguing that the US should check its own hypocrisy before pointing fingers, especially if it does it selectively (doesn't matter when allies / we do it), hypocritically, and as part of a power play/trade war. (Also, it wasn't "in the past", the US does bad things continuously. W. Bush, Obama -more of the same-, and Trump presidencies weren't in some distant past...) How about both China and the US stop fucking over with millions, and people don't "patriotically" only point fingers to the other, and give their home team a pass (with much less, and much tamer, criticism, whereas it should be even more vigorous, it being their own domain?).

    Nobody is giving the US a "pass". All of our problems are out in the open for everyone to see and comment on, US Citizens or foreigners alike! That's part of what makes the US so unique. Regardless, no issue any country has domestically is going to excuse Religious Slave Labor Camps in China. That's wrong no matter where you live or who you are. People like to throw Hitler around too easily... but this is exactly what the Nazis did... imprison and exterminate entire populations of "undesirables" based solely on religion. Arguing the US needs to shut it's mouth because it has some domestic issues doesn't fly...
