China incarcerates at an estimated 165/100k while the US at an reported 655/100k. The makeup of or prison population is skewed to certain minorities who are also more likely to go to prison vs the same charges to white suspects.
So the US has made it’s “concentration” bland and bureaucratic- but the overall system is still monstrous.
- goatsi 7y ago>China incarcerates at an estimated 165/100k Does that number include those in the concentration camps? China is refusing to give any numbers about them and classifies them as "vocational training centres" so they likely wouldn't show up under that statistic.
- dv_dt 7y agoThats why i chose the word estimate. The reported incarceration rate from China is 110/100k Iirc Edit: 118 http://www.prisonstudies.org/country/china http://www.prisonstudies.org/country/china The 165 comes from footnotes here. It may be a bit higher now, but would have to be massively higher to close in to the 4x higher US number. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_incarceration_rate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_incarcera...
