Big false equivelency. Tax money going to some unnamed 'organizations in' certian countries is incomparable to money and weapons going directly to the government of a country conducting genocide with those weapons. Its honestly funny you'd think giving random unnamed organizations money is the same as arming a military conducting genocide. Also just because you dont see something doesnt mean its not happent, there are tons of laws both US and international being passed to curb forced labor. Articles get posted here all the time when new companies end up on the sanction list. Pretending they don't doesn't make your arguement better.

Your claim was "No tax dollars!".

I proved you wrong immediately.

Justify your support of one genocide and condemnation of the other all you want, but you will be continuing the conversation by yourself.

My claim was my tax dollars dont go to the chinese government, you showed they indeed don't go to the chinese government. Nice try twisting the premises though, but my original comment is right there, you can chek it any time.
