      Reminder that we don’t have ample photographic and documental evidence (or any at all, tbh) of the genocide alleged by neocons and amplified by liberals, unlike the tons of evidence for genocide in the US and Gaza.

      But of course, what libs call a genocide abroad is just a small violation of due process in the US.

          Opposite, actually, there’s an overwhelming amount of evidence for the Holocaust. Equating it to the Xinjiang programs is actually just Holocaust trivialization.

          Quite literally the opposite. What makes questioning the holocaust (much like the genocide in Gaza) so heinous is the fact that it is so incredibly well documented that the only possibile explanation for questioning, downplaying or denial is pure hatred. On the other hand in Xinjiang, a tourist hub with millions of tourists every year, in an advanced country where almost everyone has smartphones there is essentially 0 evidence of genocide. Unless you believe the Chinese government has secretly developed teleportation or invisibility or some such nonsense that merits questioning that in all these years no reputable organisation has called what’s happening a genocide that there is no real proof and that the 2 biggest faces of the movement pushing for the classification are American intelligence linked Christian evangelical “on a mission from god to destroy china” (Adrian zenz) and a Guantanamo bay torturer (Rushan Abbas).
