The US imprisons its ethnic minorities in inhumane camps that frequently result in death at a rate 17x that of China, per capita. The countries are way more al

  Do you actually believe this? It sounds like you are consuming far too much anti-American and pro-Chinese propaganda. The Chinese succeeding in their geopolitical goals is the suppression of the individual at scale. Extinguishing of the light. Collectivism looks good on paper but ultimately is high minded and has fatal flaws which resulted in horrible outcomes whenever tried. 100 million+ dead in the 20th century.

    US incarceration and conviction rates based on race are commonly tabulated.

      The US generally imprisons only those people who commit serious crimes. There are likely some biases that result in imperfect application of the law. We’re working on it. China imprisons and enslaves people simply for being members of the “wrong” ethnic group. Please explain how these are even close to the same thing.

        China doesn't "enslave" people for being from the wrong ethnic group. These claims are a fiction of Adrian Zenz. The US actually "enslaves" people from the wrong ethnic group at Guantanamo.

          How many people are at Guantanamo? The answer is about 30 people vs. about a million innocent Uyghurs in Chinese internment camps. All of the things I mention are easily verifiable by credible sources while you are (for some reason) parroting CCP taking points. Hmm…

            All of these "verifiable" claims all originate with one man and have no evidence.

              Please stop spreading Chinese Communist Party lies and propaganda. Evidence of the Uyghur camps is ubiquitous: https://www.rand.org/blog/rand-review/2021/04/chinas-disappeared-uyghurs-what-satellite-images-reveal.html https://www.rand.org/blog/rand-review/2021/04/chinas-disappe... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/extra/85qihtvw6e/the-faces-from-chinas-uyghur-detention-camps https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/extra/85qihtvw6e/the-faces-from-c... https://www.npr.org/2021/06/10/1005263835/new-report-details-firsthand-accounts-of-torture-from-uyghur-muslims-in-china https://www.npr.org/2021/06/10/1005263835/new-report-details...

                It's all circularly references Zenz's reports when you investigate its origin.

                  Can you please point out the references that are circulatory in the evidence he gave? I don't see any references that are pointing at that guy. Maybe this guy is in cahoots with Google earth too and those massive prisons visible from space are just because of this one guy you mentioned.

  I decided to see if your "death rate" claim was accurate; but, found conflicting evidence that the mortality rates in US prisons are generally lower than the general US population, "The mortality rate of state prisoners in 2018 (319 per 100,000) was lower than the mortality rate for the entire adult U.S. population (1,110/100,000) even when adjusted for age, race or ethnicity, and sex (419/100,000) [0]." Also, mortality rates for federal prisons are lower than state prisons [1]. Could you point me to a reliable data source for Chinese prisoner mortality rates? A ~19/100,000 mortality rate would be an amazing achievement.
