It is totally fair. They won 100% of the vote in the last election. That is more than Biden got, but nobody ever questions his legitimacy. It is Western imperialism all over again.

Brilliant guess, and you were so close... The Federal Court in Detroit.
Lawyers retreat from pro-Trump election suit
The legal reckoning for attorneys who pushed former President Donald Trump’s spurious claims of election fraud
advanced on Monday, with a federal court in Detroit holding a hearing on whether to impose sanctions over a suit
filed last year seeking to decertify Joe Biden’s victory in Michigan and declare Trump the winner.
Two of the most prominent attorneys in the pro-Trump camp — Dallas-based Sidney Powell and Atlanta-based L.
Lin Wood — are among the lawyers who brought the unsuccessful suit and whose conduct is under scrutiny by
U.S. District Court Judge Linda Parker.

And what do these lawyers have to do with China detaining Uighurs in concentration camps and crushing the Hong Kong protests? Trump's claims of election fraud have nothing to do with China and I have no idea why you are using his lawyers to discredit an ongoing genocide when those lawyers where not involved in uncovering the evidence of said genocide.

I compared the tactic to the methods Trump et al use elsewhere. No evidence presented, just accusations.

???
And do you have any proof that it is nothing more than just accusations? Were Trump's lawyers involved?
Ferocitus
Deity
I don't need proof that is just accusations. It clearly is.
Don't you live in a country where the Law requires that accusations must be backed by evidence that can be
examined by Courts? (That's why those lawyers are now on the hook for the crap they presented to US Courts.)
Trump's former secretary of state and former CIA director, Mike Pompeo is one of the prime movers. Others in The
Jamestown Foundation are also sources of the accusations. They are there in the links I provided. They're not
Chinese links so don't worry, the Reds won't jump out from under your bed.

Finally, good news for Hong Kong!
Entire whisky distillery ships out to China
An entire whisky distillery is being shipped out from Scotland to China on Friday.
More than 35 tonnes of equipment, including stills, flooring, control valves and pipework, is leaving Buckie in Moray
for the port of Tianjin.
The equipment will be assembled at a facility being built in Inner Mongolia.
The shipment is part of a £3m "design and build" deal signed between Forfar firm Valentine International and China's
Mengtai Group in 2019.
The facility in Ordos will become Inner Mongolia's first whisky distillery when it opens, probably at the end of this year.
All of the distillery equipment was built by Rothes-based firm Forsyths, which is sending a team of five engineers to
supervise assembly.
Forsyths have a team in Hong Kong to provide after-sales back-up and services.

Yabbut, lawyers get paid by the word.
Which is why they are so frequently worth nothing?
Ferocitus

Of course. No evidence, no pay. Or maybe even negative income if Trump's lawyers get fined.

Scores so far...
In October 2019, 23 countries issued a joint statement at the UN urging China to "uphold its
national and international obligations and commitments to respect human rights".
In response, 54 countries issued a joint statement supporting China's Xinjiang policies. The
statement "spoke positively of the results of counter-terrorism and de-radicalization measures
in Xinjiang and noted that these measures have effectively safeguarded the basic human rights
of people of all ethnic groups."
IIRC, there are about 40 countries now supporting a Canadian (and what great white human rights
paragons they are!) Resolution and about 90 against.

And which Paragons of Enlightenment would these countries be?

Mostly Muslim countries who don't seem to care about accusations of religious persecution of Uyghurs.
But a lot of them have actually been to Xin Jiang, whereas none(?) from your side have been, so who can
anyone believe.

We should trust the countries with dismal human rights records to truthfully report on human rights in a country with a dismal record on human rights because they were the only ones allowed to visit.

No, we should trust the countries with self-proclaimed good human right records, because they weren't allowed to visit
