You established that the basis for you being positive about being vocal about Palestinian genocide, but overwhelmingly negative about being vocal about Uyghur genocide, was that one you, personally, could influence by your existence in a polity (the USA), and one you could not (China).

It is a simple distinction, Israel is a client state and is militarily, economically and politically existentially reliant on the US, China is not and can easily evade US political pressure.

Why is this so difficult for you to grasp?

but overwhelmingly negative about being vocal about Uyghur genocide,

I literally never said that.
