    Who defines human rights? Why human rights are greater than religion? And if they are, then should we round up most of the Islamists, which is significant part of Muslim population? If not, then we are OK with them violating human rights (and women rights specifically, too)? But not with China?

      I didn’t know the concept of human right was not consensual, thanks. Despite you opening that topic, I notice that you still use the concept in your argument, you must have a personal definition in your mind.

      If not, then we are OK with them violating human rights (and women rights specifically, too)?

      That:

      the Islamists, which is significant part of Muslim population

      is a strong statement that requires a very large study across the very diverse muslim populations in the world. Gonna need a citation on this one.

      And most westerners that accuse China of human right abuses are equally not okay with islamists’ abuses, so there’s no dichotomy.
