Throwing people into camps for traditional values, guilt by association or proximity, (from the files, along with goals of sinisation).
And the imposition of modern wage labour, while removing local language and lifestyles.
Or will you at least conced that if those files are real, then there is/was a huge mass detention campaign that bordered upon, if not being one, a crime against humanity?
