    To be clear, I never said “genocide”. I honestly don’t know that that word applies to this situation.

    For evidence that what’s going on is not good, here’s one of the first hits I find on searching the internet. It mentions a tribunal in the UK, Human Rights Watch, and Amnesty International all reaching similar conclusions and I find no mention of Adrian Zenz in the article or on the tribunal’s web page nor any mention of population change.

    Then China must feel real threatened. According to this, it’s against the law in China to even say you don’t agree with the law.

    “A citizen, when exercising the right of freedom of the press, shall abide by the Constitution and the law, and shall not oppose the basic principles established by the Constitution or damage the interests of the State, the society or the collective, or the lawful freedom and rights of other citizens.”

    A million Uyghurs, whose only apparent crime is being Muslim, have been sent to labor camps and undergone forced sterilization.

    Tiananmen Square started out as people peacefully protesting government corruption, and ended in the state murdering them.

    With respect to free speech, there’s not even a comparison there with respect to America. It’s not “potato potato”.
