You mean like the ethnically and religiously diverse muslim delegations from around the world that investigated the claims of uyghur genocide and declared them unfounded?
Here is an article trying to spin it from voice of america, a state funded US media outlet:
https://www.voanews.com/a/arab-league-visits-china-s-xinjiang-region-rejects-uyghur-genocide/7131285.html
I think the claims of genocide in Tibet are kinda goofy, given the US is trying to prop up some child-tongue-sucking theocratic feudalists to install as their regime.
Y'all kidnapped the Panchen Lama and don't consider Tibet to be independent.
"What do you mean genocide? They only imprisoned an entire population based on their religion..."
1 in 5 black men in the US above 35 have been in jail, the numbers aren't even close in Xinjiang, no matter the source you use. Reeducation camps in a (so far very successful) war against terrorism =/= genocide. Go watch Little Chinese Everywhere (Chinese travel vlogger) videos on Xinjiang, especially in Kashgar, judge for yourself whether a genocide is going on there.
Wow a travel blogger said they didn't see any signs of genocide?!? Case closed boys!
Thing is: kinda? With Palestine you were able to find new footage every day of innocents being exterminated, there's never been even remotely anything compared to that in Xinjiang
Is it possible that the travel bloggers simply didn't go to the concentration camps?
Everyone in China has a smartphone, as you probably known people pay 90% of the time using QR codes with WeChat or Alipay. It's not believable that there isn't footage of the "horrendous concentration camps" plastered all over western media, if there was any footage, we'd be exposed to it nonstop
Everyone in america has a camera I wonder why there arnt any pictures from inside area 51?
Did you come up with that on your own?
People don't claim that they forcibly placed 1 million Americans in Area 51 though
When they let the travel bloggers in we'll know =P You'd have to be impossibly naive to think the government wouldn't beat to death anyone who photographed the concentration camps...
China's government isn't exactly known for beating people to death. The cops murdering a given ethnicity at astonishing rates is an american thing.
You see what you're doning though? You're starting from the assumption that the Chinese government is murderous and genocidal, and any evidence presented to you simply can be disregarded.
Begging the question
Ad hominem
Don’t bother: this person self-identifies as a horseshoe theorist. What we are dealing with is a nonfalsifiable orthodoxy.

What else can one expect from an instance that explicitly bans “tankie shit”?
Nope, an ad hominem would be if I said something like "you lied before why should anyone believe you now". The conclusion of my logical analysis was that "you must be corrupt to believe that". If you're concerned with fallacies read up on "appeal to authority" because you're a one trick pony
The people levelling the accusations in the first place didn't go to China at all, sooo....
How are they going to go to concentration camps that don’t exist?
