sorry, on mobile and could have phrased that better. Does the outright extermination of the Uyghurs appear to be the PRC's ultimate goal?

- scrollaway 7y agoUh… yes?
- whoevercares 7y agoAs someone else said, force integration is the goal. Chinese culture rarely need to eliminate anything, it just absorb them
- x220 7y agoYou assume that a regime that does exterminate an ethnicity makes it appear from the outset as their ultimate goal. Historians of the Holocaust rigorously debate whether the Nazis intended from the start to exterminate all Jews worldwide. There's no straightforward answer. If you want to know where the threat of genocide exists, you don't look merely at rhetoric. Genocide happens across several discrete stages. It usually starts with popular sentiments such as "you are not like us, you are not one of us", proceeds to "you may not live among us", then ultimately ends in "you may not live". China is at the step immediately before extermination. The number one predictor of extermination isn't rhetoric, it's ghettoization and internment.
- yumraj 7y agoYes. That is its ideal goal. Since in today's world an outright genocide is difficult, it is settling for reeducation camps
