Um. Wrong. Small government conservatives will point out how that’s another reason why our country is better and not a shite hole, and that if anything the solution is better vetting of immigrants if we feel our country’s values (not color) are being undermined.




let me introduce you to the poliboard

It’s not the same situation as what is happening to the Uighur people though, who are a distinct people group and culture that China would like to rid itself of.

Planet Money did an episode on this. It's some fricked up shite.

quote:

Alim is a Uighur, a Muslim minority group in China's Xinjiang province. He was travelling home to see his parents after a long time away from Xinjiang. When his flight landed, he was pulled off the plane by Chinese police and questioned for hours. His blood samples were taken. Officers recorded his voice and took photos of his face from all different directions.

When Alim was released, he realized his hometown was vastly different from the one he remembered. There were security checkpoints and cameras everywhere, police officers waiting to stop you on every block. People were afraid to speak about their faith openly. Personal conversation about anything of substance seemed to cease.

Today on the show, Alim takes us inside his hometown. We see how the Chinese government has created a surveillance state using DNA, voice, and face recognition technology to track and target Uighurs. And we find out how Americans — some knowingly, some unwittingly — helped advance this system.

The opinion of anyone who says this in a political discussion should be immediately dismissed and laughed at.

This is me laughing at you:

Now this is true Islamophobia

There’s no reason to be afraid of Muslims. Only 75% of them are terrorists

Not interested. Crazies reside that way. And probably more presumptive ignorance than anything.

Because Chinese boots have not set foot on their soil like American boots have


The Chinese had no qualms about putting military boots on the ground in Yemen when their citizens were in danger:

Chinese Rescue

and made a movie loosely based upon that operation which I'm sure most muslims would find offensive:

Operation Red Sea

I guess living under a theocracy is ok with you as long as it is the religion of your choice.


Well it does happen to be the religion this country was founded upon....if that matters.

And the same country which allows freedom for all religions, as long as said practices do not disrupt the lives of the MAJORITY who happen to believe in the ideals and values this country was formed from.

China is also totalitarian and crushes anyone who goes against them while we’re not. They’ve even banned certain letters from being used on their version of the internet. Are you really arguing we should be more like the communist country who makes people who criticize the government disappear?

No...I am arguing that we should not let our history be altered by people who are not loyal to our way of life. We allow Muslims and others to come here but they never assimilate into our society, yet they demand benefits and still hold allegiance to foreign nations.
