The similarities between the Uygur genocide and the build-up to the Holocaust are startling. Corporations that had direct ties to the Holocaust, like Volkswagen, Hugo Boss, and IBM, are now being accused of using Uyghur slave labour in Xinjiang. Serena Oberstein remarked on the parallels, “What we are seeing… is eerily similar to the moment that we were in pre-1936 Berlin Games. There’s an Olympic games happening, there are a number of corporate sponsors who are overseeing these games despite knowing that there are concentration camps and people being disappeared in the night. We see similar infrastructure being erected like trains and concentration camps.”
