    Pffft 8000 civilians killed in Iran together with their entire government doesn’t even count.
    That’s within u/Lehmuusa’s acceptable limits. Invading and kidnapping the leader of Venezuela under false pretense is just another day of the month, and blockading and starving a country for oil for no reason is just an example of how might makes right.

    AFAIK we do not have verification that more than 8000 Uighurs died, so it seems to me that USA deserves to be on that list not less but MORE than China. Also I haven’t heard about China bombing girls schools.

      The big difference between the Chinese War on Terror in Xinjiang and the American War on Terror in North Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia is that Hu Jintao (he was The Good One, can’t speak ill of Hu) Xi Jinping did it using the Dark Arts of Communism rather than the Liberty-imbued Democracy Bombs of Capitalism.

      Therefore, every Uighur killed in a police raid on a mosque or who died in a detention camp in Loupu is worse than any ten an American killed with a Shock And Awe bombing run or tortured to death at Abu Ghraib or Guantanamo Bay.

      So that 8,000 is closer to 80,000. And when you use the Black Book of Communism math to count the unborn decendents of those dead Muslims (whom we love, because Americans universally condemn all forms of Islamophobia and embrace all religions equally) we’re talking about 800,000. Maybe even 8M. Certainly possible it’s more than that, depending on which libertarian think tank or AI chatbot is running the numbers.

      Also I haven’t heard about China bombing girls schools.

      China has killed more than 100 Million Muslim Girls. Adrian Zenz told me so.
