There was a bit of a discussion regarding this in another post (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37273507 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37273507) I myself believe there is something sus going on in Xinjiang, but it's hard to prove what exactly is going on and if something is going on, considering all the misinformation that is spreading from all sides. You cited rfa.org as your source which is US-funded news agency. You should be careful with citing sources from media outlets like CNN, BBC, NY Times, WSJ without being a little bit critical. The Victims database and XinJiang database project have allegedly had fabricated identities, witnesses & overall cases. The biggest challenge for me has been to find a reliable source without it coming indirectly or directly from the chinese gov. Anyways, here's where I got some of the information from (Chinese gov funded news) https://global.chinadaily.com.cn/a/201901/22/WS5c465e92a3106c65c34e5b91.html https://global.chinadaily.com.cn/a/201901/22/WS5c465e92a3106... This post walked through most accusations and explained how and why they are untrue (Notice that it's from the chinese gov, they even mentioned the CIA founded news org rfa.org) http://sydney.china-consulate.gov.cn/eng/zt/888j/202104/t20210429_8895312.htm http://sydney.china-consulate.gov.cn/eng/zt/888j/202104/t202... This document showcased some of incidents happening in Xinjiang and Chinas response to them, this document felt like the most neutral one. https://docs.uhrp.org/pdf/POLVReportFinal_2021-01-29.pdf https://docs.uhrp.org/pdf/POLVReportFinal_2021-01-29.pdf
