Genocide should not be an ‘unfortunate fact of life.’ And lets be clear ‘sufficiently eliminating cultural distinctions’ means genocide.

When western journalists use 'colonism', 'genocide', 'ethic cleaning', or 'racism' to describe things, I often feel that they are doing this on purpose to reduce the weight of things whatever people have done in the past. So now CCP is nazi, and suddenly kids look around and say, nazi is not that terrible. Are you guys (activists) redefining the world genocide whenever you want? Western media lost credibility immediately afterwards.
I vehemently agree. Do you have an idea of how to stop it? Perceiving and describing reality other than it actually is seems to be growing in popularity, but I don't see the advantage in that approach.
So your response is to participate?
Can you expand on "participate"?
