Canada's Parliament just voted to declare it a genocide. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/uighur-genocide-motion-vote-1.5922711 And I've been seeing a lot of conflicting takes on it on twitter and here. From what I can gather from researching the main issue is lack of indication of full on genocide there, but there also seems to be a fair amount of evidence that these camps do exist. I fail to see how that is "good" as people on this site appear to be indicating?

    Have you been to China? Chinese people on twitter I've seen have mentioned it's common for schools to have them: https://twitter.com/RealSexyCyborg/status/1364121761499869185 (this is Naomi Wu, a prominent tech Youtuber based in Shenzhen)

    I'm sure some of them are actual prisons but where is the proof that all X of these prisons and schools are being used as detention facilities for the camps?

    Will also add that satellite images were used to justify the Iraq War. https://www.nti.org/gsn/article/satellite-images-of-iraqi-convoys-led-to-belief-that-iraq-possessed-chemical-weapons/
