He is an insensitive but is he wrong?

If people really believed that China was orchestrating a genocide, why do we accept that US companies are manufacturing stuff over there? Why are we broadcasting the Olympics? If people really cared, more consequential actions would have been taken.

Or maybe care but just don’t think a genocide is happening over there, hence why nothing significant is being done / asked by the public

People have. I’ve talked with my federal house rep’s staff on the issue with tangible action items. They went one above what I talked about since I tried to temper to realistic haha.

Imagine being the people who reported my post form a few moths ago calling out Chamath for his lying on CNBC about owning Tesla stock…

I feel relieved that hes speaking his mind versus PC filtered. Does not mean I agree, just refreshing to hear different views.

Couldn’t agree more

This isn't the apology of someone who is sincere.

Instead of "I said something morally repugnant" it's 'y'all think I'm a bad guy, and I'm not'

It's baffling how all these rich people have teams of PR hacks and still can't be bothered to offer a decent looking apology even if fake.

Feel like since sweatergate, Friedberg is the only one with the voice of reason (though at least JCal is willing to hear people out, is open to new perspectives, and is humble)

Lol they really treat JCal as if he’s a complete idiot sometimes. I know it’s in jest, but it really comes across like they hate him lol

He has a right not to care and not being harassed for that. Yet, he didn’t need to be an a-hole and say “nobody cares.” That’s enough to justify shaming him, imo. I’d say most people probably don’t know or care or see no point in caring. What we see in Xinjiang is how Soviet Central Asia was transformed to a more secular space. I am pretty sure the same, if not worse, happened to the Native populations in Americas, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. Ultimately, the responsibility falls to our elected officials to drive international policy in the best interests of the nation, which may or may not align with the fate of oppressed minorities elsewhere.

It is not in the US interest to have a “developing nation” trading partner who is using slave labor to compete against us.

A economically and militarily strong trading partner who is vocally stating is hegemonic desires in the fastest growing region in the world where we have at risk formal alliance partners.

This is a threat to the Western World.

P1 is spot on. C2, if you care about the US’ role in the world (/if you’re American), then you *should* care a lot about China and many issues, it’s treatment of the Uighurs.

I’d care more if I could do anything about it, and alas, China will probably get away with what they are doing. All I can do is condemn forced indoctrination, yet being of Turkic descent myself, I’m kind of glad that Soviet period contributed to me growing up in a secular community. Too much religion is quite atrocious to my liking, yet communism is a cult of its own, so that’s pretty much bargaining one trouble for another. So yeah, all I can do is comment that “this is bad.” Quite helpful.
