it sure feels good when three losing candidates all conspire to prevent the leader from winning, sort of a highly optimized form of democracy where there's only three voters

the real kicker with agencies like the CIA is that they're totally immune to outside scrutiny and do a ton of poo poo which is blatantly illegal and hidden from what internal scrutiny exists. this means that unless they actually die or gently caress up in especially spectacular ways they have no reason to ever learn anything other than how to cover poo poo up

are these the leaders of the countries, or their populations? because the people in muslim majority countries support something like a free palestine, while the gulf dictators could absolutely not give a gently caress. this could be similar

Their votes in the UN, not polls of their populations. I haven't been able to find recent polls from Muslim majority countries about China. You have a point, but I think this chart illustrates that the issue is being drawn along Cold War lines rather than a sincere concern for the rights of Muslim people.

the actual human rights records of the countries are barely material to the discussion. hell the actual conditions on the ground are barely material to the discussion either at this point

The concept of genocide doesn't just cover mass murder.

It's detaining them en mass, forbidding them to practice their religion and culture. To ban them from speaking their own language, wearing their own clothes. From passing their traditions on to their children.

To forcibly sterilise them. To rape them. To force their women to marry men from the ethnic majority. To treat them like slaves. To "re-educate" them. To deny them any freedom in their lives.
