What do you suggest? Go to war? More tariff? People only do things in their own interest as always. Besides PRC is not torturing Uyghurs for being Uyghurs, they are torturing them for not being compliant with PRC rule - in Xinjiang region, they happen to be Uyghurs.

as the native people they wanted Xinjiang independence for a long time. Which led to separatist violence and bombings by Uyghur groups. There are definitely reasons other than just racism, its just a big taboo in the west to mention that.
