I think a state can be all the things I said that China is and still not be a police state. All the online articles referencing China being a police state that I can find talk about the extreme measures in that one "autonomous" region of Xinxiang specifically. Do an internet search for yourself and see. Can't freedoms in China be pretty terrible in many respects without it being equated with the worst regimes ever?

>I think a state can be all the things I said that China is and still not be a police state. All the online articles referencing China being a police state that I can find talk about the extreme measures in that one "autonomous" region of Xinxiang specifically. Do an internet search for yourself and see. I think where you wrote that, you thought it goes without saying "Do an internet search for yourself (from outside China, or at least via VPN) and see." I don't want to add to your words, but that's what you meant, right? You obviously didn't mean they should search within China without a VPN, even outside the province you highlight. But if that goes without saying, if it's what you meant, then why? By the way excuse me if I am putting words in your mouth.
