My sources are newspaper articles whose sources are not the guy you're talking about.

Because the Palestinian and Bosnian genocides are not in China, they don't prove anything about China. At best they are whataboutism.

    Check the newspapers, Zenz will be listed. Find some sources, they all point to Zenz for claims of genocide.

    As for Palestine, it isn't a whataboutism. There's overwhelming evidence of Palestinian genocide, and there just isn't for the Uyghur people.

    Start with the UN report, read China's response.

    The reports were made by reporters that were named and whose names weren't what you refer to.

    Unless Palestine is in China, what happens or does not happen gives no privileges for China. What you're doing is indeed whataboutism.

    Show your sources. Claims of genocidal nature all route back to Zenz, claims of reeducation programs are abundant and have many sources.

    And no, whataboutism would be saying that "China may be doing genocide, but the US and Israel are doing worse genocide in Palestine." That's not my point, my point is that the Palestinian genocide has mountains of evidence, yet the Uyghur reeducation program's "genocidal nature" only has Zenz, paid for by the BBC specifically to manufacture evidence to be used against China for geopolitical gain.
