It’s all allegations, they never even confirmed any cultural genocide taking place in China. Why doesn’t the US just send a NATO rep to investigate and confirm or deny any events taking place?

Oh right, western propaganda

    I might be remembering this wrong but didn't the the guy who coined the term genocide include cultural genocide in his initial definition but then a bunch of western states pressured him to remove the cultural aspect because they were all guilty of doing it themselves?

      Yes, the definition was originally written to include things like American Indians/First Nations peoples having their kids taken away and sent to boarding school where their traditional religion/language/contact with their tribe was all banned. That stuff did eventually make its way into the United Nations definition, but only after those who were historically guilty of it had all stopped doing it. Also importantly, the definition never included sending adults to night school.
