There are American political prisoners in Saudi Arabia rn who have been tortured, whatever the details of these cases are, child abuse doesn't deserve the same attention for being jailed for speaking up about human rights abuses like in Saudi Arabia. So why this thread that's just about Russia

What are you talking about dude? Like just say what you want to say
I made this thread because I myself am an American teacher and a lot of these prisoners are teachers themselves, so obviously I feel a type of way about it which is why I made this thread. Solely to spread awareness about these cases because they’re obviously being overshadowed by the Griner case.
Do you have a problem with me doing that for whatever reason?

What I'm trying to say is that it's not some type of principled stance against Americans being unjustly detained abroad like you said earlier itt, and this goes beyond just you, Biden signed an order against countries unjustly detaining American citizens but it excluded Saudi Arabia and included Russia, despite SA jailing Americans for merely expressing their opinion on abuses, unlike Russia, and I thought free speech was important to Americans
You caught up in the media geopolitricks
Teachers really just be living lives as human punching bags
While doing the most important job in the country
