The government isn't targeting people by race. It's targeting people by culture and behavior. You either conform to the affluent chinese westernized lifestyle or they will force you Assimilate. Very similar to what happened to much of the Americas.
Race is just a correlation, the causative factor is the culture associated with the race as practitioners of falun gong (who include the Han people) are also targeted.
In America, I have the freedom to brainwash people into following Scientology, in China such cults cannot exist. The line of demarcation is blurry, when does a religion become a cult? How is the fantasmic stories of walking on water or coming back from the dead in christianity make it any different from scientology?
When China sees serfdom as part of the Tibetan culture do they label it backwards and raze the entire belief system or do they leave it alone? https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2009/feb/10/tibet-china-feudalism https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2009/feb/10/tibet-...

Are you saying that the Chinese government force abortion by culture and behavior [1], not by race?

- nendroid 6y agoThis is horrid. What's going on here is that the targeting is going in both directions. They target the race because of the culture. In general if you live in the big cities but follow the cultural standards you will not be touched regardless of your race.
- Udik 6y agoUntil a few years ago the Uighurs were exempt- as minority- from the one-child policy applied to the rest of China. Would you say they were being racist against the Han then?

The amount of force that state can apply in the Americas barely registers. Look at the homeless in California, not to mention other examples.
