You unbelievable schmuck.
Who is this "we"? Those are historical events most Americans have nothing to do with. And the fact that they happened isn't an excuse for morally bankrupt deflection from mass human rights abuses by an entity NBA players are directly partnering with.

It's fine if you want to talk about the flaws with our current society, but those don't compare to what China is doing right now and you have no moral credibility to do so when you're intentionally avoiding any criticism of the horrific abuses happening there because of $.
If you're going to blatantly and openly prioritize making some money in China over speaking out against concentrations camps for millions of Muslims and mass crackdowns on dissidents, at least have the sense to not lecture others while you're doing it.
One thing people seem to forget is the NBA wasn’t just silent, they partnered and stood with the CPC. After Morey’s tweet with a simple “free Hong Kong” message, he was condemned by owners, some players wanted him disciplined, LeBron said Morey was wrong and “not educated” etc.
And now we find out about the abuse of Uyghur players at one of the training camps they operated. And still none of them will speak out. So sorry you don’t get to lecture anyone about human rights while you choose to side with one of the worst absurs in modern history.
