Usually in relation to Uighur camps, the argument is “since you’re in America you can’t change whether they’re concentration camps or education facilities, so you should just concentrate on the concentration camps within your own borders instead.”
Like, motherfucker, I can have an opinion on the actions in another country and still work on changing things I can change.
I guess my question is, is this concentrate on what you can change part of some theory or strategy I haven’t read or is it just bad and lazy?
In particular for China it’s essentially conceding to the people who thinks there are millions of Uighurs being murdered, rather than attempt to engage and show that there is no evidence of that, and just what abouting.
The imperialist actions are against both the government and the people always. There is a lie in the west that they can take actions against the government and not the people, especially repeated by the media. This is absurd.
True. It’s always the same story: The US government says it wants to hurt the foreign government, not the people. Yet, the people suffere serverely because stuff like medication and food is blocked even though it’s not supposed to be included in the sanctions. No company is allowed to make buisness with these countries, which drives up domestic prices and inflation makes everyone poor. Iran has gotten so much worse since the US cancelled the atomic agreement.
