Does this make the UN human rights council more legitimate or less legitimate now?

I feel like the UN's time is past. The rank hypocrisy of moves like this...the hypocrisy of how they seem to dog Israel more than countries that are much worse. Time for an overhaul.

I guess it could go positively or negatively. The cynic in me thinks that China will be able to cover up its own human rights abuses even further, and perhaps weaken any oversight into abuses generally. As an optimist I might say that being more closely part of the community might lead to changes that further human rights within China as well.
To be fair though, the US similar has undue influence on a lot of institutions and so covers up its own misbehavior as well.
I just hope the UN never once opened their mouth to decry the "concentration camps" here for illegals.

I agree, I think the UN should call out both the human rights abuses in and by the US and in and by China. It sucks that China and the US have such an outsized influence that it leaves them in many regards above these rules. Russia as well, tbh.
You don't mean seperations at the border? You realize that only happens because laws are in place disallowing children to be in detainment, yet they MUST detain people when vetting them (Would you want to allow child pornographers or human traffickers to smuggle abducted kids in, as some do?)

Never let anyone else define you. Don't be a jerk just to be a jerk, but if you are expressing your true inner feelings and beliefs, or at least trying to express that inner child, and everyone gets pissed off about it, never NEVER apologize for it. Let them think what they want, let them define you in their narrow little minds while they suppress every last piece of them just to keep a friend that never liked them for themselves in the first place.
Whether human rights abuses are based on a legal framework of a country should be irrelevant, imo. Separations at the border are a recent troubling thing, as are the immigration courts generally.
I was more thinking about the enormous prison population, the state of those prisons and the racial biases inherent in the system. Similarly the homeless crisis, and general poverty I would put under this as well, and that's solely domestic issues. If we talk about foreign issues, there are war crimes we can talk about that have no been addressed, humanitarian crises caused by economic warfare, etc.
