Guess work? This is coming from your own source, which undermines your point!
How are you adding
a. not available pre-trial detention and other forms of detention
b. and "more than" a million Uighur Muslims?
If you can't even provide credible information, then how does one even "deflect" it?
- DrScientist 2y agoStill avoiding the key point that the US has 2.5x more people per capita incarcerated than even China with all it's political prisoners - and the US legally can force these people to work against their will. Still not pausing to think?

- DrScientist 2y agoYou threw shades at China for incarnating too many of it's own people, and being a key greenhouse gas emitter - both are true - I'm just pointing out that for both of those areas - the US beats China around 2:1 on a per capita basis if you look at the numbers. The US incarceration numbers in particular are extraordinary - about 1 in 7 of the worlds prison population is in the US. I'd be interested in your opinion of why that is.
