It just seems petty and caters to a spiritual victory need, not something substantial.
It's because Biden is in a most difficult position, partly thanks to our comrade Jianguo and partly of his own making.

The correct thing for Biden to do back when he took office was to go "American is back, democracy fuck yeah" and then no more. Don't mention China, pretend it doesn't exist, let all the anti-China fever that Trump stirred up die down slowly while quietly talk to China about helping him out ala 2008. China would have listened back then.

But instead what he did was at every meeting he went to he was all "guys China is super powerful now! We have to come together and do something!" For month he keep reminding everyone at every opportunity how China is rising and America's needs to engage it head on. Then at the same time he continued to print insane amount of money (on this he doesn't have a lot of choice). Now with inflating spiralling out of control more than ever he needs China's financial help, yet thanks to his own actions he cannot be seen to be soft on China. Can you imagine he do something as simple as take off Trump tariff against Chinese import? GOP and Trump will immediately be yelling "Beijing Biden!" and how he surrendered and sold out the country and he can kiss the midterm election goodbye.

And so here we are, Biden cannot upset China because he's still hoping China can bail him out, yet he cannot not upset China because it would be political suicide. He has played himself into a corner.

That's why you see him do these petty little "microaggressions" as he tries to walk a fine line between the two. Playing this game requires a tremendous amount of emotional intelligence and a very good understanding of the other guy's culture and sensibilities, and well those are not America's strong points.

Does that mean that the Taliban support the Uighur Genocide?
Well they've got no problem with killing Afghani Muslims including via suicide bombings. That would suggest they lack a moral centre to take the right position on questions like genocide.

Or to put it another way, do you think a serial murderer is likely to care about people drowning in a flood?

Replace those three word
they've = Fake Americans
Afghani Muslims = muslims
Suicide bombing = Air strikes and bombing
It makes so much sense now when you say "do you think a serial murderer is likely to care about people drowning in a flood?."
In fact if you replace
they've = taiwanese
Afghani Muslims = Chinese
Suicide bombing = US bombing
Still it makes so much sense, no?
WTF are you doing with those fake americans in native america?

Why would I replace words when the comment I was responding to was about the Taliban? I think it's pretty reasonable to suggest that terrorists are unlikely to care about whether or not genocide is occurring in a neighbouring territory.

Because you just mentioned about "moral position" on genocide? So you are "only" concerned about supposed genocide in China, not anywhere else? You seem fine drinking vodka with fake americans standing on mass graves of natives?
I think it's pretty reasonable to suggest that terrorists are unlikely to care about whether or not genocide is occurring in a neighbouring territory.
They should care about "whether or not" genocide going on neighboring territory, not the definite genocide committed by your masters in their territory? Because thats gonna hurt your "values & rights" of gobbling up native land or Chinese land?

Here comes the fake virtue signaling fella...dude, you think we're dumb or oblivious to your super duper country's genocidal history and invasions of countries you guys didn't like? Give me a f...ng break buddy. I don't have any issues with you being proud of your country's political system since that's what works in your country, but what I find objectionable is your obnoxious way and tendencies to make pronouncements about certain countries, culture, politics, history as defective and only western culture and political system can work best/enhance a country's vitality and viability.

America and the West have no problem going to Muslim countries and killing civilians and defenders of their homelands calling them the terrorists.
That would suggest they lack a moral centre to take the right position on questions like genocide.
'They' being the West obviously.
Or to put it another way, do you think a serial murderer is likely to care about people drowning in a flood?
No, that's why the West puts politics before its people when fighing COVID.

The funny thing is for all "Mr T" claims about a moral centre, I have never seen him (or her, or they) post anything in support of BLM or any other cause of social justice in the US.

In case you are wondering, this is the actual story of Mr. T and his journey to overcome pervasive racism in the US. Very inspiring.
