The police in China doesn't kill with guns. It kills by preventing people from demanding better healthcare.
The same goes for incarceration. In US 3M people can't use Internet due to being incarcerated, but in China more than 1.5B have significant restrictions. (This is just an example for the idea of total restricted freedom)
- okasaki 4y ago> The police in China doesn't kill with guns. It kills by preventing people from demanding better healthcare. Given the efforts that China has put in to stopping the spread of cov19 over the past 2 years, that seems delusional. Also, Chinese life expectancy has exceeded the US now[1] [1] https://www.vice.com/en/article/v7vevb/us-life-expectancy-falls-behind-china https://www.vice.com/en/article/v7vevb/us-life-expectancy-fa... > The same goes for incarceration. In US 3M people can't use Internet due to being incarcerated, but in China more than 1.5B have significant restrictions. (This is just an example for the idea of total restricted freedom) All countries have restricted interactions on the internet. Go ahead and google how to make a pressure cooker bomb and see how long you have a job after the secret service starts asking your employer questions about you, or download some songs and get sued 150k per song by the RIAA. Given the head start by foreign countries and the radical nature of the internet (totally different way to communicate) some caution and restrictions probably aren't out of order.
- lostmsu 4y agoAs I mentioned below, your first link is poorly sourced. As for your second one, your attempt to claim the restrictions are similar is going into wrong ears here. Both the cooker claim and the songs claim are laughable.
- AlexandrB 4y ago> It kills by preventing people from demanding better healthcare. If you're American, this is the most "throwing stones in a glass house" accusation to make about another country.
- lostmsu 4y agoUnited States is above China in life expectancy averages. My impression was that the healthcare here is very expensive, but not bad. Besides, US does not prevent people from demanding better.
