I'm not very informed on modern China and there's a ton of sources accusing China of killing and even harvesting organs from Uyghurs and Falun Gong believers.

Is there any truth to those claims or is it all pigpoop ?

Yeah this is what I've tried saying to people. Genocides breed active resistance. People don't just stand in line to get genocided, they panic, the state will get sloppy too and try to rewrite reality as it's happening. Or they have to employ the worst sort of violent oafs to carry out the violence, and it generally spills out into massive conflict. There hasn't been anything like that in Xinjiang from what I know
