As a Jewish person, I appreciate those saying that this is not okay and that it is misinformation. No, 6 million Uyghur Muslims have not been murdered.
And, as a Jewish person, I know that 6 million very well could be murdered. This is not another Shoah, but it very well could become another. As a Jewish person, I feel we must say ānever again.ā
āNever againā does not mean āthis event was so uniquely horrible, it could never happen again.ā It means āthis event was horrible, but not unique. We have to make sure it never happens again.ā
The Uyghur death count isnāt 6 million, that is misinformation. But ānever againā means we have to make sure it doesnāt become 6 million.
If you are not Jewish or Romani, do not draw comparisons to the Holocaust. All that provides is shock value and misinformation. What you can do is support Uyghur Muslims.
