In a post-October 7th world, the counter is simply "so where are the goddamn bodies then?" It takes less than a minute to find hundreds of photos and videos of Palestinian kids with their brains falling out of their blown off skulls and Palestinians carrying bags of viscera of what's left of their murdered relatives. Xinjiang is more than 4500 times larger than Gaza, so there should be around 4k more footage of genocide in Xinjiang if there was an actual genocide.
"B-b-but cultural genocide" Cultural genocide always follows or is concurrent with genocide genocide because people never willingly surrender their culture without putting up a fight first, which means the people most able to put up a fight have to be exterminated first in order for cultural genocide to actually work. So where are the goddamn bodies then?
"B-b-but seeseepee surveillance state" More than the Zionist entity being a surveillance state itself and pioneer of surveillance technology? The Zionist entity has completely surrounded Gaza as an open prison, which is very easy to do when Palestinians are crammed into a rectangle that's only 365 km^2. Nothing goes in or out without the Zionist entity's knowledge (except for paragliders apparently lmao) and yet we still see footage of dead Palestinians every day. So where are the goddamn bodies then?
So many of them straight up believe the CIA/Falun Gong organ trade propaganda and probably assume the bodies were recycled and the remains destroyed.
I agree that we'd know if this shit had actually happened. But your average liberal probably imagines a Jewish holocaust type of efficiency and cleanup. They just don't have more than a smug attitude about it because Uyghur people are double damned for being Asian and Muslim.
In fact that's the thing, you can't convince a lib because the lib does not wish to be convinced. The lib doesn't care about the Uyghurs and their alleged slaughter (didn't happen) because the lib only cares to the extent they can reinforce their Sinophobic and orientalist attitudes (and by extension their own supremacy / western chauvinism.)
"Uyghur Genocide" is just a half remembered factoid they can use as a rhetorical smokebomb.
Good example would be Turkey, and how the army acted in Dersim and against YPG, this isn't defined as cultural genocide but Xinjiang is? Your best proof is redesigning fucking roofs for god's sake
Hey, there's also a video of a guy driving around a wall topped with barbed wire and every time there's any sign he stops the video, a red circle appears, and there's a camera shutter sound effect. This goes on for 20 minutes and also it's the guy that almost got deported back to China this week. Guess they figured out deporting a "heroic refugee" wouldn't support the genocide myth.
Oh did he get a stay of extradition?
Maybe I'm being too naive about how he'd be treated in China, but it would have been inconvenient for the US to send a friendly "enemy of the Chinese state" back to China only for him to just.. get on with his life with a more secure future than he probably has in America.
He'd go from being no longer of use to the US to (probably) being a living counterexample to the ridiculous falsehoods they want everyone to swallow uncritically. Like it'd just be an unforced error.
