The definition of "genocide" isn't really that simple. Raphael Lemkin, who invented the term "genocide" in his 1944 book Axis Rule in Occupied Europe, said that genocide is " a coordinated strategy to destroy a group of people, a process that could be accomplished through total annihilation as well as strategies that eliminate key elements of the group's basic existence, including language, culture, and economic infrastructure" (my emphasis).

China might not be literally committing mass-murder but my non-expert understanding is that they're making a deliberate effort to eliminate Uighyur culture and identity which is very much within the definition of genocide.
