I think that's undercut somewhat by the fact that Palestinians have increased their population despite being genocided by Israel. IMO it's also necessary to look at all the indicators of welfare for Uyghur people like life expectancy, literacy, income, access to healthcare, etc, and how they've all steadily improved
To be fair on the population stat, even the most war hawk minds admit that the re-education camps have closed down now and that its no longer ongoing. With China if its being alleged that they have carried out a genocide, you would look at population numbers; A genocide by definition would significantly reduce the amount of people.
Like we see with Palestine, the genocide did not start until recently, only the precursor too it (ethnic cleansing, ghettoization, devaluing of life, apartheid etc) but it would be fair to say the actual genocide (the systematic mass killing) of them has just begun. If its successful or not will be determined by the amount of people killed and if they manage to remove the ethnicity from Gaza entirely, which is the goal.
so bad at genocide the UN census of uyghur populations in genocided areas actually increased by millions in the time frames alleged
