This guy tricked China into letting him tour the camps, saying he wanted to see if western media was lying, then he came back and says they're putting people in concentration camps for praying, or being Muslim:

Other states aren't doing this, don't normalize this please.

    Concentration camps != Extermination camps. The nazis had both. They also did forced sterilization in those camps. But the latter camps also had gas chambers.

    The US interned American Natives / American Indians and Japanese people in concentration camps. At least for the former group, they also carried out forced sterilization, settled and exploited their land, and stole their children away for "re-education". They did not build gas chambers or any other means of industrial slaughter, but few people would deny that the US committed genocide against the Native population of that continent.

    It's well documented that contraception, sterilization, and possibly abortion, are forced upon the Uyghur people in Xinjiang. Uyghur people but not Han Chinese are being interned in concentration camps in, at the time, the "largest mass incarceration of an ethnic-religious minority since second world war" (Guardian, 2019). Uyghur children are being transfered to boarding schools against the will of their parents and guardians, or because those have been interned for having too many children in the first place. Multiple Chinese government officials have repeatedly affirmed the goal of reducing Uyghur fertility. At a minimum, this constitutes 3 out of the 5 possible criteria for a genocide, each of which alone is sufficient to make that accusation. We have not yet seen mass killing of Uyghurs, but that doesn't mean there's no genocide. As has been said in this discussion: "We know what genocide looks like." Exactly: It commonly looks quite like this.

    lol.

    wikipedia

    ok.

    bbc

    ok.

    Goal of reducing fertility isnt inherently wrong if it is done through education and awareness, I also support anti religious campaign through those methods.
