I go "how could you be worried about China at a time like this, with Saddam Hussein getting closer and closer to obtaining a nuke"
To be less facetious, it's easier now that we see what an actual genocide looks like in Palestine, you can just ask "If these impoverished people with unreliable communications to the outside world still have smartphones and internet, if they can upload their suffering despite every attempt to censor it, then where the fuck are all the horrifying gory videos from Xinjiang, a place that is not under seige or blockade? Don't you think if such videos existed, we in Amerika would never hear the end of it?"
And hey, if China is committing a genocide against Muslims, how come the US isn't arming and supporting them?
reading this like 'but we do dammit!'
