I'll agree with this but the difference is drastic. Compare the number of people in Guantanamo to the number of people in Xinjiang. An order of magnitude of an order of magnitude difference.

Guantanamo is an embarrassment but it isn't even close to the Xinjiang camps

America killed a million Muslims just in the time that I've been alive. China has done nothing so psychopathic and cruel.
Again, laughable. Care to justify that figure?

That's not nearly as bad as the 16 billion Uighurs the Chinese have in camps right now.

Just say you don't care. The most unbearing thing for us is that you claim to care while brutalizing and fetishizing others to justify your own crusade.

You are comparing indirect casualties from a war to people intentionally murdered in concentration camps.

You are correct. I don't find that in any way to be a compelling argument.

How many Muslims has America sterilized and brainwashed?
I don't have the numbers on Muslims, but here you go: https://en.mundohispanico.com/the-uterus-collector-sterilize...

You've probably already thought of multiple excuses, because you've been conditioned not to think of immigrants in concentration camps as people.

That's because concentration camps refers to your own citizens. Which doesn't excuse what happened in those US facilities. This isnt a trivial distinction; government's have a specific responsibility to their own citizens which goes above and beyond. Besides which china does some super sketch stuff on its border with north Korea.
How about you don't make assumptions about who you're talking to?
I think you meant million instead of billion (ironic in a thread quibbling over orders of magnitude)
no, I'm pointing out how easy it is to make up numbers.
