China isn’t preventing or discouraging intermarrying or intermixing with Uighurs, which is a key feature of apartheid. Neither do they have to use separate lanes of the road, carry special IDs marking their ethnicity, or forced to use different emergency shelters.
I use those examples because the real-world example of apartheid, Israel, is currently doing all of those things today.
I agree. I’m saying apartheid could be used to describe what many liberals believe is happening with Uighurs in Xinjiang, not what is actually going on.
Although even then I don’t think many people are arguing Uighurs are seperated legally in the way that you described anyway.
I suppose apartheid can be used instead of cultural genocide.

It would be just as incorrect
