>At some point people become enough of a liability that we collectively as a society have authorized the restriction of their rights. So tyranny of the majority is fine? I'm sure you can apply the same justification to what's happening in Xinjiang. Also, where's this "authorization" stemming from? Did we explicitly authorize it? Or was it implied by our inaction? |

Perhaps it is preferable to tyranny by the minority.

Did you authorize the taxes you pay, or where they go? Isn't this the so called social contract?
And please, my family fled true tyranny, I assure you nothing the US is doing is quite comperable to the CCP. Westerners don't know tyranny. They've grown so comfortable that they can take to the streets for weeks and complain about the very government that supports them.
Try doing that in the USSR or any Chines state outside of Hong Kong or Taiwan.
