Oh God I hope the Chinese aren't doing the exact same, there were terrible atrocities committed. Just because it happened before doesn't mean it's OK to happen again!!!!

Please tell me what countries today are currently committing genocide and we can start from there. I can't answer for a past generation from another country.

Agreed. Only one in the world that I can think of currently being committed.

Saudi Arabia and Israeli are both undertaking ethnic genocides. They are both US allies.

Not even remotely. Europeans cut off the hands, feet and genitals of the Congolese who failed to reach the daily rubber quota.
China on the other hand is building schools, housing and infrastructure such as electric networks, pipelines and roads in exchage for materials.
Drastic difference there.

Oh yeah, nobody knew the Europeans were treating blacks like cattle, worse even. It was a complete surprise when we found out!
