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

I agree with the UN when they concluded that there is no genocide in Xinjiang

From the UN definition you supplied, one of condition that needs to be met;

A mental element: the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group

So lets compare the fabrication with a real genocide such as the ongoing one in Gaza, they're are numerous statements from the Israeli government that declare such a genocidal intent, such as "Gazan civilians participated in the horrific events of October 7" "there are no innocent civilians there"

"I have ordered a complete siege on the Gaza Strip. There will be no electricity, no food, no fuel, everything is closed. We are fighting human animals and we are acting accordingly." - Israeli Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant

And here's a database of 500 statements of genocidal intent from Israeli government leaders


I'll repeat I don't deny that China has committed human rights abuses, but I concur with the UN OHCR that they fall far, far short of the definition legal and otherwise, of genocide

For this one condition to meet the definition, could you provide sources that show such a callous and widespread intent to wipe the Uyghurs off the face off the earth from the Chinese government similar to those from Israeli state for it's current genocide of Palestinians in Gaza?

Also bro you sound like an 8th grader who thinks they’re the shit cause they watched a YouTube video about Mao. You talk all pseudo intellectual and try to use modifiers like “I concur” as if that strengthens your argument somehow. It doesn’t and it makes you sound dumb and like you have no ground to stand on.

Go touch some grass you loser
