No idea how it is in the US (don't forget many people immigrated there due to communism in Europe), but here in Czechia and other Central/Eastern European countries that have been under communism for decades and have been invaded by Russia, the stance of the majority of people is based on either direct personal experience or the experience of their family.

It was a rhetorical question, the American propaganda machine is feeding everyone their current marching orders. Everyone is up in arms over Ukraine, before that it was Covid, before that it was BLM. Where is the outrage for the lockdowns in Shanghai? What about the Uyghurs? People are no longer capable of forming their own thoughts, they are simply fed what to think.

What about the REEEEEghurs

Stop pushing fake news, kike. Your "East Turkestani" trash are imports from Turkey who, unfortunately, managed to subvert the host population. Only an antisemitic power like the PRC is able to unsubvert them, and even then, it took lots of re-education camps.

The lockdowns in Shanghai and the Uyghurs are examples of things that are not being boosted to the same level that other topics have been, like COVID, BLM and now, most recently, Ukraine.
