Every single "evidence" I've ever seen of this genocide ended up as hoax (remember the meat truck?), so I think it's pretty safe to say it isn't a thing.

By the way, you can GO TO XINJIANG as a tourist. You can talk to the people there. You can experience their culture for yourself. How's the Freedom Floatila doing in comparison?

Hell, go on RedNote, an explicitly PRC centric app with state control and cEnSoRsHiP and you'll see Uyghurs in and outside Xinjiang proudly sharing their culture. Wonder how many Palestinians are allowed on Israeli social media.

Also, Uyghurs can, get this, leave the country that's "genociding" them and many do every year for the Haj pilgrimage. Can Palestinians do the same? Uyghurs can also, get this, go back to the same home and possessions they had before they left without worrying about an Israeli or Han Chinese family moving in while they were gone.

Also also, look up "minority status" in China and how mixed race Han-Uyghur people usually identify with their Uyghur heritage on official papers because it opens up more social support programs like scholarships. They (and every other minority) were also automatically exempt from the One Child Policy which is a pretty stupid move if they're trying to get rid of them. You literally get more perks from the government if you're not Han, and this is supported by both the majority and minority ethnicities in China. What does Palestinian status in Israel get you again, I forget.

I have seen far too many dead Palestinians and zero dead Uyghurs
