They're operating under the assumption that the "Millions of Uyghurs in camps" claim is correct and not a complete and utter lie. There are a couple dozen facilities about the size of a medium prison or large elementary school. If they're filled like schools, that's 15,000 people at most. If they're filled like American prisons, 50,000.
From the BBC's tour of one, I'd say it's the former. They don't seem packed in like sardines. Meanwhile we have 2.6 million people locked up. Most of them for non-violent offenses or completely made up charges. All being used for slave labor and with a complete disenfranchisement and minimal educational opportunity.

No. No one ever said that of Uighurs in China. Not on this site, not on Reddit, not in China. No human person alive has ever said that.
