In the original comment, you used the present tense. I think that's what was being questioned.

As I said, look around. China has been (and still is) doing it today with Uighurs. It’s not a new behavior.

Of course. But the specific claim you made was about many countries currently using census data to "round up and murder" some "specific groups of people by religion, ethnicity, etc."

I'm not arguing that you don't a valid point - broadly speaking. You do.

But you made a very specific claim, and that was what was being questioned. That's all.

Reading is fundamental. I made no such claim. I said many were using it to target people (which they are), and some are even using it to murder people using that data. Which they are.

Or do you think that is actually not happening right now?
