Problem is, we have put genocide on such a high level of seriousness that denying it or even calling for it can get you banned in several places, because for most people it means "ethnic cleansing with mass killings" There are some cultural group I want to see disappear. Like white supremacism or US southern slaver culture. I will even support governmental efforts to press on them as long as it does not involve violence. My problem if that this definition of genocide is so broad that it includes a lot of process I see as natural evolution of a culture. Hell, under that definition, Algerian independence could be presented as a genocide against Pied-Noir! [1] I know very well the legal definitions of genocide, but using that word to frame a moral debate is a dishonest manipulation in my opinion. What China is doing is akin to the Cultural Revolution and I suspect that the reason we use "genocide" for something so remote from the officially recognized genocides is because we (as a society, I am sure there are political scientists who have done the work) have never taken the time to have the moral debate about what this policy actually is and means and why it is bad.
