Not sure if your issue is low IQ or partisan political marriage to this


Ignorance. Or maybe you just truly have no understanding of civics in democratic societies. First, I do find it instructive that you compare the genocide of the Uyghurs to fines for failing to abide by rules set by an elected government. That’s consistent with the mindset of other snowflakes just like you who try to start revolutions because their gyms closed for a few months. Just like the tyranny our forefathers fought against!

Sammy Snowflake, it is true that democratic governments set rules, and penalties for violating them. It is true that in both Canada and the USA you can contest the rule, including the penalty, and try to have it overturned. Then you get a 2nd bite if you should find yourself fined under the rule, because you can plead not guilty and combat that in court.

Totally consistent with democracy anywhere on earth. Their histories are full of controversial laws and rules and penalties, and battles over them in courts, and governments failing to win re-election as a result.

Please come back to legitimize your nonsensical analogy just as soon as an ethnically Uyghur Chinese citizen gets to vote for a leader and/or gets to contest anything the government does to them in court. The next time those things happen will be the first.

To add a little punctuation, you have no FUCKING idea what the word tyranny means.
