Several countries, including the US, UK, Canada and the Netherlands, have accused China of committing genocide - defined by international convention as the “intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group”.
The declarations follow reports that, as well as interning Uyghurs in camps, China has been forcibly mass sterilising Uyghur women to suppress the population, separating children from their families, and attempting to break the cultural traditions of the group.
The US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, has said China is committing “genocide and crimes against humanity”.
The UK parliament declared in April 2021 that China was committing a genocide in Xinjiang.
A UN human rights committee in 2018 said it had credible reports that China was holding up to a million people in “counter-extremism centres” in Xinjiang.
The only one comparing the two is you. Both can fit the definition of genocide and be horrific without devaluing the other.
Oh wow US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken says it’s a genocide and he’s got a lot of credibility right he knows when he sees and genocide and he always calls it out.
Oh wait he’s actively arming and defending the Israeli gov while they systematically murder 100s of thousands of civilians and 10s of thousands of children in front of our eyes.

Guess I don’t know how to format quotes properly.

I wonder if he’s biased? 🤔
Your dismissal of his credibility as a source doesn’t make you any less wrong.
You’re reliance on state department propaganda sources makes you wrong
