but it's a human characteristic. I've also learned in this group that all bad human interactions are intolerance and all intolerance is tribal, and tribalism is a universal human characteristic. Therefore I thought I was out of step by being insufficiently tribal and tried to act more human, lest I be expelled from the tribe or suffer some other tribal punishment.
With that for an explanation of my all too human behavior, the article (and all other articles you have posted about this issue) severely downplay the ethnic, geopolitical, economic and historical dimensions of the oppression, likely because the reporters focus on the main thing they understand, "Muslims."
You apparently do this on thread after thread after thread to make a claim that "atheists" oppress "theists" for a situation that probably has more to do with millenia-old attempts by China to control the Central Asian steppes.
It's not clear why you want make this point on thread after thread after thread after thread other than your stated desire to point out the painfully obvious (lest anyone miss the all-important obvious) which has the (surely unintentional but IMO unfortunate) effect of distracting from the details of whatever the OP is about.
In this case, I find it interesting that Turkey, and not, say Morocco is defending Muslim Kazakhs, but as the interesting parts of that have little to religion(since Morocco also is a Muslim country, why don't they care about other Muslims?) I'll refrain from raising those issues here, as this is the Religion Group, not the Central Asian Geopolitics Group. However I'll note that anyone with at least a little knowledge of Central Asia would see the obvious connections missed by the article.
