That's what did it for you? Not the treatment of the Uyghur muslims? |

you can disagree with their politics but this is definitely a slippery slope and probably pretty racist |

There are very few cases where economic sanctions actually worked, and in many cases they just made things worse, as in iraq or venezeula-while the regime stayed in charge. if millions of people stopped buying things from China it would screw over working people, and not the CCP, who would happily continue repressing uyghurs. Also this whole debate on the repression of Uygur muslims is the pinnacle of hypocrisy. There are multiple cases in the world in which people are being treated similarly or worse than the Uyghurs which could probably be ended with a single sentence from the president, yet for some reason we have to get upset about the one in a country where we can't do anything about it. |

The point being that if you did want to boycott an entire country there are plenty of better reasons than the maltreatment of a dog |

Hadn't entered Twitter in a while and it's being bombarded with suggestions of weird republican tweets. Did twitter all of a sudden decide I'm a republican or something
Also is there a reason they are doing anal swabs instead of nose swabs? Or is it just the psychological thing so you'd know you're getting fucked right when you land there |
