You actually don't know. You have read some things.
Just recently Jordan Peterson tweeted a photo of some men hooked up to frightening-looking medical machines. He claimed that this was evidence of horrid things going on in China, and hundreds of people believed and re-tweeted it.
Within a few hours it was demonstrated that the photo was taken in a gay SM dungeon in London where men enjoy having things done to them. As of now, Peterson has not apologized.
Anyway it's not productive to keep going on about these issues where people know in advance what they believe, and filter the evidence accordingly. When the skepticism is as selective as it is on this thread there's no point. So good luck to you, I'm out.
This is a report by DW:
Here are some quotes from the Wİkipedia page:
“From the 1950s to the 1970s, the Chinese government sponsored a mass migration of Han Chinese to Xinjiang and introduced policies designed to suppress cultural identity and religion in the region (…)During the 1980s under Deng Xiaoping, the PRC pursued a new policy of cultural liberalization in Xinjiang and adopted a flexible language policy nationally (…)Beginning in 2014, the Chinese government, under the administration of Chinese Communist Party (CCP) General Secretary Xi Jinping, incarcerated more than an estimated one million Turkic Muslims without any legal process in internment camps”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uyghur_genocide
This is a Uygur Genocide in a nutshell. For more information I suggest you read the whole Wikipedia Article.
Did you know that the Soviets even backed the Uygur rebellion at some point?
Anyway, I know about these issues because the current “Nationalist / muslim identity / Neo-Ottoman” ruler of mine is doing nothing about these events while it is “Western” nations who stand up against China for the ethnic identity of these people

(I mean Beijing has asked this government to deport some of these Uygur refugees, and the government failed to give a clearly negative answer to that - For whatever reason - )

THE PRC is not just any other country to live in. In fact even those who flee the regime (I mean ethnic Chinese) can face severe consequences (like being kidnapped back to China or being simply eliminated in some way) if they do something while they live abroad that is not approved by the Party-state. This is why Hong-Kongers tried to resist the regime, and this is why Taiwan does not want to reunite with China. It’s not a matter of national identity. It’s just the fact that no one is willing to live in an Orwellian regime.
+ Perhaps Xi-Chi-Pings strong grip on political power may be an attempt to give some extra life to this already collapsing regime (That’s how I see it).
