Yes, in hindsight, calling that genocide with no real evidence of direct killing is a bit too much.
👍
But the report I linked to mentioned coercive birth control and internment or imprisonment for violations of the family planning policy (page 35).
Your interpretation is much stronger than the report: ‘but remained “seriously concerned about reported instances of the use of coercive measures, including forced abortion and forced sterilization, with a view to limiting births”’. I’m not even saying that it isn’t happening. But if it was a massive problem, you’d think there’d be more than reports. There are mobile phones and foreign tourists in Xinjiang, it’s not like the government would be able to forcibly abort 10% of babies there without someone taking a smartphone video of the abortion police coming to their home.
I’m reminded that forced sterilisation of minorities in the US is a known fact.

I applaud OP for the the citations and research. I appreciate his linking to the UNHRC report, but nowhere in that report does it mention “genocide”. I’d honestly like people to compare it to multiple UNHRC reports on US treatment of its black population.
I’m no expert, maybe China is taking an overly heavy hand in Xinjiang. But to call it a genocide when no evidence exists for mass killing, and when the US war on terror lead to 5 million actual deaths, is absurd projection and and diminishes the value of the word “genocide”.

I 100% support your sentiment, but please consider reframing away from body-shaming in the future.

There’s absolutely ways to make a classic car quieter. I just think you want to run loud.

I’m pretty sure that a lot of people do custom jobs, either at a shop or a hobbyist place. The nerds who are into custom exhausts can probably just switch before and after their inspection. Although granted I wish the MOT dealt with loud cars better. I heard they’re going down this route, but haven’t see any effect from it yet.
