Is the US Holocaust Memorial Museum a good source?
Seeing as they don’t have a single citation in that entire page, no, it’s not a good source
And this UN article mentions human rights violations, which, fine, nobody is arguing that there aren’t human rights violations in Xinjiang detention centers. But compared to US prisons, these conditions are pleasant. NOTHING in that article is even hinting at genocide. And comparing prison time for 2-18 months to genocide is deeply offensive to peoples who have actually suffered genocide. You sound like a typical white westerner who is trying to whitewash the crimes of your country by projecting them onto other countries
Did you even read the table of contents? Did you read the part about the unnatural birth rates? Did you read about the complete lack of consistency that “Terrorism” and Extremism" laws have? Did you read about the surveillance state that exists there? The suppression of Uighur culture? The forced disappearances?
You’re comparing two things with a magnitude of difference. I can talk about American issues of systemic racism all day, but calling the two equal is exactly as you put it whitewashing the crimes of China by projecting them on to America. The destruction of the American Indian lands happened in the past, but the destruction of Xinjiang and Tibet is happening today. We can do something about it
Lol yes I read much more than the table of contents. Did you read anything beyond the table of contents? None of those things constitute a genocide.
And all of those things are common in America to a greater degree. “Surveillance state” ha! America has more cctv cameras per capita than China. America has concentration camps at the border where real genocide is happening complete with forced sterilization, separation of families, and killing/imprisoning of people without a trial

You’re talking to a sealion who’s not here to have a discussion in good faith. Don’t bother with them
Focus on your own country, cracker
