There were a whole series of posts on HN, and other sites by folks who talked about people traveling in the area and not seeing anything.

I don't know what that is supposed to mean / why we would assume you'd notice it ...

On HN and elsewhere people mentioned how they were happy people could travel through the area and not have to worry about "thieves" and they'd make some comparisons to travel in the west, a sort of chilling random concern considering the topic.

Often the same link was posted to a western blogger apparently paid to travel to the region. With the link the posts noted that the blogger didn't mention genocide.

They build huge compounds (found easily through news websites) where they put everyone behind closed doors.
