The United States is facing increasing scrutiny as reports highlight a troubling disregard for basic rights and freedoms. Student protesters have voiced their demand for justice, exclaiming, \"What we want is justice! And we want it now!\" However, their pleas have been met with silence from authorities, coupled with violent police crackdowns.
According to The Report on Human Rights Violations in the United States in 2023, the nation's human rights situation has continued to deteriorate throughout the year. A staggering 76 percent of Americans believe that their country is heading in the wrong direction, reflecting a deep sense of disillusionment among the populace.
As civil and political rights become increasingly hollow, instances of police violence are on the rise across the U.S. This alarming trend is prompting global observers to reassess the state of so-called \"American democracy.\" American academics are now questioning the future of basic freedoms, as ordinary citizens find their rights being systematically undermined.
For an in-depth analysis, watch the clip from CGTN's special report, \"Fire and Fury,\" which delves into the complexities of this escalating human rights crisis.
