Why are Americans up in arms over China?

[Bane-Thunder-God]

Why are you Americans up in arms over China's dispute with their own kin when they don't give a crap about America and certainly wouldn't boycott Blizzard games for you either?

[Themius]

Probably the arresting re-education concentration camps and organ harvesting. Plus and their history with Tibet Taiwan Hong Kong

[Templar 331]

It's called empathy. You might need some.

[XDurionX]

Maybe its their fascist regime and their human rights violations. Or more probable they know that their time as sole superpower will be over soom enough.

Empathy? This isn't a crisis, the Chinese are bickering with the Chinese.

A crisis is Turkey invading Syria. A crisis is Libya enslaving Nigerians. These are real issues....

China has many ethnicities saying that they’re bickering with Chinese is as silly as saying the issue with Libya and Nigeria are just Africans bickering with Africans.

I know China likes to pretend they don’t have a extremely ethnically diverse country with 56 different ethnicities .

[szechuan]

This isn't a crisis.

It's getting there.

These are real issues....

Real Issues are apparently SJW's as they get the most Outrage Manipulative Click bait Hate.

No, that's not the same at all. Hong Kong is in China, these are Chinese, they're not japanese nor are they koreans or vietnamese. Nigeria and Libya are two very different countries.

Hong Kong is IN CHINA.

[szechuan]

Nigeria and Libya are two very different countries.

Hong Kong is IN CHINA.

Yet Hong Kong still has an entirely different Government and Economic System compared to China.

So? They are still the same people. Same kin. Nigerians have many different tribes with different beliefs, they fight among each other over these things but its not a worldwide crisis. Cause they are still all nigerians at the end of the day.

The people of Hong Kong are still Chinese

[Netherspark]

Do we really have to explain this? It doesn't matter what country people are from. A line on a map doesn't magically stop people from caring about millions of people subjected to constant torture, murder and oppression.

Nor does it stop people caring about chinese government-enforced censorship in OUR countries.

Ethnic cleansing, shadow wars, reeducation facilities. Totally not a crisis.

Boy are you way off....

[szechuan]

And so are North Koreans and South Koreans, Are you suggesting we should start treating North Korea like South Koreans too?

[Collegeguy]

No, that's not the same at all. Hong Kong is in China, these are Chinese, they're not japanese nor are they koreans or vietnamese. Nigeria and Libya are two very different countries.

Hong Kong is IN CHINA.

Why does their location matter? It's incredibly easy to understand why any one would want human rights even if they live on the moon.

You know what happened the last time a government imprisoned a group of people like the Chinese have done to the Uygur Muslims and their oppression of the people of Hong Kong? We had a pretty big war over the violation of human rights 80 years ago. Seems some parts of the world haven't learned from that yet.

That is emphatically not why we had a war. If Germany and Japan hadn't overreached with expansion, they could have gone on with torture and genocides indefinitely. In general, it's very difficult to find any large-scale wars that's been fought over human rights rather than geopolitical concerns.

At some point they'd have run out of people to torture and genocide. Expansion of influence is a guaranteed outcome of the former 2.

[Themius]

Over 90% are han though.

Even similar races when grown apart often become their own culture and eventually treated as a separate ethnicity hence "hong kongnese" and not "chinese"

[Mihalik]

So....hypothetically...If Canadians decide to put in concentration camps, organ harvest and oppress French Canadians, or First Nations natives then it's nobodies business?

What about if the Germans do the same to ...let's say their Turkish minority?

Or the US does the same to Bernie Sander's voters?

[Chairman Sheng-Ji Yang]

A big chunk of HK's population is made of people and their descendents who purposefuly left the shitfest that was the PRC during Mao's reign.
