A few dozen people arrested won't make me think it's the worst.
But how about a few student activitists disappeared, beaten to confess in a video clip, and two of them still missing even today?
From the Wikipedia:
> In January 2019, police summoned several activists and showed them an allegedly "forced confession" video in which four activists (including Yue and Qiu) claimed to renounce labor radicalism. Some activists later wrote blog posts criticizing the police's action, saying it was a "ridiculous performance put on by the police". Seven more people were taken away again.
> Several organizers and student activists remain missing, including Yue Xin and Zhang Shengye.
Apologize for the confusion, I didn't read en wiki before post, apparently this isn't emphasized in the en version.
And yes, I'm a native Chinese speaker.
