It's particularly important for users here not to sling toxic, sinister accusations at each other without evidence. Someone having a different view from you does not count as evidence. This sort of aggression is extremely common on the internet and is one of the things that accounts here most need to avoid. If you read the HN guidelines, you shouldn't have any trouble seeing which one I'm referring to.
Also when did UN called it a genocide? I googled it but found nothing specific. Mind sharing a link to the claim?

Why should I trust what they have to say as opposed to, say, China’s government? Or any government at all that I did not vote for?
I’m not a U.S. citizen nor on the payroll of CCP or whatnot.
Yeah, the CCP has a great track record admitting their atrocities. Let’s totally trust them instead of the Uyghurs who are all collectively making this up out of spite.
Someone will share a well agreed upon anecdote of the horrors being committed by the Chinese, and without fail, one of the first responses will be whataboutism regarding the US government, as if that has any bearing whatsoever.
Nearly any civilized country around the world is in full agreement that there are horrific atrocities being committed by the Chinese, and it's largely due to economic bullying that we're forced to turn a blind eye.
