well documented genocide.

source?

the UN, it addition to numerous countries including those with a Muslim majority population have investigated and concluded that the claims of genocide are a fabrication

The claims of genocide that appear in western media can be traced back to single source; Adrian Zenz a german christian fundamentalist who is on a self described ‘holy war to destroy China’ and writes books such has ‘Worthy to Escape: Why All Believers Will Not Be Raptured Before the Tribulation,’

Do you really believe this nutjob is a more reliable source on events in Xinjiang than the UN’s Office of Human Rights?

Bro did you even read the wiki article you linked, idiot. It talks about how numerous agencies/new outlets confirmed his research that there exists an ongoing genocide, detention, and sterilization programs of Uyghurs. The article goes into detail on how Zenz is the target of multiple misinformation campaigns to cover up his research. However, it also notes that you are in part right because he is exaggerating the numbers. (At least your dense, mush brained ass got one part slightly right)

From the UN’s Report on Xinjiang, 2022

Serious human rights violations have been committed in XUAR… the underlying acts often directly or indirectly affect Uyghur and other predominantly Muslim communities

The report goes onto state how Uyghur’s are placed in detention camps with terrible conditions where forced surgeries, sexual violence, and torture have been reported. (VIII, 145)

Multiple times the report states Uyghur’s are being stripped of their liberties in the region.

Why are you citing a source that doesn’t even reflect your claim 🤡 Learn to read, better luck next time

Please read the entire article and don’t just cheery pick the things that fit your pre-conceived notions

Stop moving the goalposts, my claim is that their is no genocide, the only source you quote alleges serious human rights violations, that while obviously terrible(and I condemn them, just as I condemn the US’s similar but greater and larger in scale abuses committed at Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo Bay, CIA blacksites etc), are not synonymous with genocide

Which sources on that page present evidence of genocide? if any such source exists why didn’t you quote them?

Read the UN’s definition of genocide and tell me this doesn’t fit the bill.

Why are you trying to argue the semantics of what’s happening to the Uyghurs? It’s a brain dead thing to argue and is also as you say “moving the goalposts” from your original claim which was “there is no genocide taking place.” + you’re wrong

Get a grip man
