Right but can we maybe not getting hung up on specific words and definitions? I really don’t want endless fights over what to label stuff, I would rather see discussions about whether or not China should be doing what they do…
It’s a lot easier to dismiss and deflect a hard to define and relatively flexible word such as genocide, but it’s a lot harder to actually defend China’s actions…
Notice how amnesty international never mentiond the word “genocide”? Instead, they stick to what they can prove without a doubt: Chinas mass internment, mass survilance, etc.
Don’t get me wrong, Chinas actions are horrible. The label genocide is probably fair. But I hate when appologists are able to dodge an uncomfortable discussion because the discussion gets stuck at arguing whether we should call it “crimes against humanity”, “systemic repression of a people” or “genocide”…
