Fallacy Eleven: "The Karakax list" demonstrates that the Chinese government established the ideology and governing system aiming to eradicate certain cultures

In the so-called report The Karakax List: Dissecting the Anatomy of Beijing's Internment Drive in Xinjiang，Zenz speculated that the so-called "Karakax list" in PDF format was likely generated from an excel spreadsheet or a word table. For the incomplete data in the PDF file, he explained: "this conversion was done unprofessionally and caused a (relatively minor) amount of data loss," making a ridiculous statement that "errors like these make it in fact more likely that the document is authentic as attempts to create a forgery would have aimed for a more perfect look." Zenz made a fuss over a list which he can't be sure of its authenticity. It's not difficult to measure the credibility of his conclusions. On February 18, 2021, website The Grayzone published an article pointing out that Zenz's report was the result of speculation and doubtful media reports. As revealed by the investigation of relevant departments, the so-called "List" on which Zenz's research was based was forged by collusion between the "East Turkistan" forces in China and abroad.

In the report, Zenz claimed that all the 311 people on the list from Moyu County were detained at vocational education and training centers. According to the investigation of the relevant departments, the vast majority of the 311 people on the so-called "Karakax List" are residents of Bostan sub-district, Moyu County. They have been working and living normally there. Only a few of them who were influenced by religious extremism or committed minor crimes have received vocational education and training in accordance with the law. The despicable behavior of Zenz using the identity information of the residents on the "List" to spread rumors and make accusations made them so indignant that they all volunteered to dispel the lies. For instance, Haibir Maihesut, who is on the list, said: "I'm 31 years old and have been living in Bostan sub-district , Moyu County. I have a family of four and we are living a good life. I have never been to the vocational education and training center all my life. But someone with ulterior intentions has been using our identity information to make lies. I have to make a clarification. His scheme has to be stopped."

In the report, Zenz listed the reasons why the trainees were "detained in the vocational education and training center", claiming that violation of the family planning policy was the most common reason. However, three reasons related to the participation in the training were given by the white paper titled Vocational Education and Training in Xinjiang issued by the State Council Information Office in August, 2019, and none of it has to do with family planning. We have read official documents at all government levels in Xinjiang through the websites provided in Zenz's report, and found that there is no wording regarding the claim that violators of family planning policy will be sent to vocational education and training centers.
