I am not chinese and I assume neither are you. Yes, I believe there is also no coherent chinese culture. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ethnic_groups_in_China

As far as I understand there are groups in China accusing the Chinese government of ethnic erasure. China’s "Law on Promoting Ethnic Unity and Progress," which took effect on July 1, 2026, codifies the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) policy of cultural assimilation.

> Yet to deny the existence of Chinese culture or Chinese people would not only be extremely offensive, it would be genocidal language.

Please read the definitions of genocide and ethnic erasure again. I do not deny anything, I just say i believe it didn't exist.
