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?

    So many of these "detention camps" have reviews on Baidu because they're apartment complexes or schools. There are (or were) some camps, but not nearly at the scale the Western media is reporting, and most of the "satellite analysis" is just sleight of hand nonsense.

      Thanks for the global times article, it's much better than the twitter links other people are giving. The article really provides good ground images to support the claims its making.
