- signatoremo 4y agoUgh, the question is about systemic torture. Your counterpoints are not. As terrible as the condition in US prisons can be, those prisoners are convicted. The only crimes the millions of Uyghurs committed are being of a certain race and practicing a certain religion. Your profile says, “Hates when people get killed, especially for religion and oil”, yet you seem to be completely contradictory in that regards throughout this thread.
- trasz 4y agoMy counterpoint is about demonstrating that while the sources document mass detention, they don’t show that the cases of other abuse are systemic - to me it seems they are not mandated by the system, rather, they are individual crimes committed by the guards, and the US prison system is an example of how this problem also exists elsewhere and might be unavoidable at this scale. >The only crimes the millions of Uyghurs committed are being of a certain race and practicing a certain religion. And the vast majority of them are fine. It’s not like Iraquis killed by US troops simply for “being a certain race and practicing a certain religion”.
