Population transfer is the only actual mistake of the communists that you’ve brought up. Marxist-Leninists today agree that this was one of the biggest legitimate crimes of the USSR, though it was not done for “Russification.” Instead, population transfer happened during a time of constant turmoil and subversion, out of a sense of paranoia. Culture was still protected, and Russian culture did not replace local ethnic cultures, there was a simultaneous push for a “soviet” internationalist culture with preservation of local ethnicities and culture, even with population transfer. Still a crime, but the only actual crime you’ve brought up thus far. As for the Falun Gong, again, they are a cult akin to Scientology, not an ethnicity, and the PRC isn’t killing them en masse, just repressing it as an anti-communist and western-funded cult. Same as the idea of Uyghur genocide, atrocity propaganda akin to claiming that there’s “white genocide” in South Africa, Christian genocide in Nigeria, or that Hamas sexually assaulted babies in Operation Al-Aqsa Flood. A hospital supposedly claimed to be for “organ harvesting” with 6000 Falun Gong members was visited by US officials, finding it to be a regular hospital, and this document leaked by Wikileaks and intentionally hidden by the US gov The claims all come from the self-appointed “China Tribunal,” run by a British barrister that has historically prosecuted socialist countries The sources for the claims are the Falun Gong itself, akin to saying Scientologists reporting on far-right conspiracy theories are trustworthy The Falun Gong claims “race-mixing severs connection to the gods” The Falun Gong believes modern science was created by aliens to take over human bodies You’re uncritically believing the equivalent of 5g cell towers causing brainwashing, or Bill Gates trying to microchip everyone with vaccines. You do this not because you’re incapable of seeing truth, but because you deliberately believe convenient lies.
