Why is China’s persecution of the Uyghurs used as an excuse for the Democratic Party facilitating a genocide? Two things can be bad at the same time, though with genocide and attempted ethnic cleansing being obviously worse.
First, it’s the genocide and ethnic cleansing of the Uyghurs, same as Israel and the Palestinians.
Second, no excuses here. You brought up the Israeli genocide in a thread that had nothing to do with the genocide and did it in a way so as to seemingly say that China is somehow less corrupt and guilty than the US… It’s not. Neither genocide is excusable or justifiable.
I think most normal people are quite happy to ignore the opinions of anyone that denies the holocaust.
Although I wonder how many people realise the scale of it? 6 million Jews gets repeated a lot more than all the other victims. Ask the average person in the street how many died and how many would say it was 6 million in total and forget the rest? The other victims shouldn’t be forgotten about.
People contest the Ukrainian genocide because it wasn’t a genocide, it was a famine that affected multiple regions including Ukraine, and didn’t have any ethnical component to it.

So did/is China… All countries are controlled by the oligarchy. The oligarchy does evil shit in every country.

It is absolutely relevant to why Tiktok is being banned.
Also equating the two is dishonest at best. The images from both tell a totally different story. You are just propagandized.
Then why did the Wikipedia article change its name from Uyghur Genocide to Persecution of Uyghur?
Genocide is a controversial term.
Even today, people contest the Armenian genocide, and Ukrainian genocide (holodomir). Even the Holocaust.

It was Stalin who systematically made the famine worse in Ukraine to break them. I learned about it in High School history class.
