Apologies, I’m not seeing any direct citing of Zenz. Am I missing it? I did a Ctrl+F search to make sure and I’m not seeing his name on that report at all.

Zenz is not the OHCHR and had never been one.

Additionally, I have people arguing with me in the comments that the UN says genocide was debunked but that quote shows the opposite.

Ehhh quotes normally is with the surname and abbreviate name. Ctrl + f returns 2 A. Zenz in the OHCHR report.

The thing about Zenz, almost every thing about Uyghur genocide cites him direly like OHCHR did or indirectly like Amnesty did(citing another source that cites him).

What OHCHR is quoting is: "Thoroughly Reforming them Toward a Healthy Heart Attitude" and “Wash Brains, Cleanse Hearts”: Evidence from Chinese Government Documents about the Nature and Extent of Xinjiang’s Extrajudicial Internment Campaign both written by Zenz
