If your religious ideology encourages you to rape , kill, innocent people in train stations, streets, during a music concert, perhaps re education is a great idea.
thats a good justification of genocide, its not something that makes it not cultural genocide.
if 10 people rape someone, and you make 1,000 people change their culture, well. that's genocide.
we did the same in america, we stole indian children off of reservations, put them in reeducation schools, forced them to be christain in many instances, etc. because we found them barbaric and we had all the power. it was still genocide.
but in any case, im not arguing china is engaging in cultural genocide, im just correcting you on the term. it doesnt require death and destruction. to some people just simply forcing mosques to be chinese style is cultural erasure, i could care less.
