I'm not very informed on modern China and there's a ton of sources accusing China of killing and even harvesting organs from Uyghurs and Falun Gong believers.

Is there any truth to those claims or is it all pigpoop ?

Your error is in trying to find a comparison between overt ethnic cleansings and pogroms and the treatment of Uyghurs in China. The propaganda line of empire is woven into this kind of thinking. Equate the unequal so that the stain can be transferred. You don't need to have a motivation to do so in order to support that line, it's inherent to asking questions in a certain way, the way we are all taught to.

I also see tacit support for the claim of genocide early-on and then nothing to challenge it.
