I'm not very informed on modern China and there's a ton of sources accusing China of killing and even harvesting organs from Uyghurs and Falun Gong believers.

Is there any truth to those claims or is it all pigpoop ?

I think that's part of what makes it hard to talk about. There were human rights violations, including some very strange ones. So when you throw it at the average lib and say "This isn't genocide!" they'll often shift the goal posts to arbitrary arrest and detentions without disclosure of where the detained person is being held, never pausing to consider that while that's bad, it's not at all what they asserted initially.
