1) Aydin Anwar, the Uyghur American Activist in video wears hijab. There are very few Uyghur American women who wear hijab. This is a nice touch to highlight Muslim nature of Uyghurs and appeal to broader Muslim community. This is working as Arab Americans I follow tweeted video

2) “They are being sterilized, a method used in Genocide” Even China Human Rights Defender whose widely sited estimate of 1 million in detention based on 8 informants and HRW report didn’t mention this. But it makes a good story https://www.nchrd.org/2018/08/china-massive-numbers-of-uyghurs-other-ethnic-minorities-forced-into-re-education-programs/ …

3) “Thousands of Uyghur women are forced to marry Han Chinese men” Even widely sited HRW report which should be taken with a grain of salt only mention of monetary incentives for intermarriages btw Han and Kazakhs. But sensational claim is good for TV. https://www.hrw.org/report/2018/09/09/eradicating-ideological-viruses/chinas-campaign-repression-against-xinjiangs …pic.twitter.com/PSeLgoDXM6

4) “Most towns and villages of East Turkestan are almost empty, 70-80% of civilians are all gone” Out 11 million Uyghur population, that come out to 7.7 million people gone according to her low end estimate! 7.7 million!

5) “You have change your name from Muhammad or Fatima to Han ethnic names” Many Uyghur men are named Memet or transcribed into Chinese as Meimeiti which is Uyghur form for Muhammad. Xinjiang is not running out of Memet. Nobody changes name into ethnic Han names

9)Death in Xinjiang Camps: CIA funded RFA reported 4 death in 2018, included in HRW report. HRW couldn’t verify. Aydin didn’t mention her dead relative’s name bc this person is the unnamed one on the list? https://www.hrw.org/report/2018/09/09/eradicating-ideological-viruses/chinas-campaign-repression-against-xinjiangs …pic.twitter.com/lWjI7NJ1rW

This is how USA propaganda works. 1). comes a story-teller, saying somth. like Iraqis stole incubators for babies from the Kuweit hospital, or Assad used chem.weapons. 2). journalists hype the story, 3). senators outraged, plea to President. 4). bombings start. Needs no checking.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

If it's propaganda (I have no opinion) who is paying for it and why?
-
Depending on your understanding of propaganda nobody has to be paying for it. Like nobody is paying off the New York Times to repeatedly downplay the Saudi-US-UK role when they write about cholera in Yemen but various factors militate to make it likely
