This article downplays the most horrendous act of genocide: systematic, state-endorsed RAPE of Uighur women and girls (https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-55794071 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-55794071)
Mass extermination is obvious, but here's another way to destroy a nation: through the deepest, most unutterable form of demoralization.
And I think the reason it's not more in the headlines is precisely because of its nature: we don't want to think about this kind of act, on a mass scale, perpetrated by one of the most powerful nations in the world, indirectly supported by Western economies and politics.
The BBC report is considered credible. The best thing we can do is to spread it, and hope it becomes viral - so that business with China becomes absolutely socially unacceptable.
