    The US actually has a higher prison population than China, both per capita and total despite having a fraction of Chinas population. I’m not in favor of forced labor or the carceral state in general.

    When it’s happening in the country I live in, it’s going to be a slightly higher priority for me.

      This is only true if you exclude Xinjiang concentration camps though.

      But either way, it ain’t a competition both states run a degeranged penal systems albeit targeting different undesirables. China focused on wrong think, US goes for poors and/or minorities.

      The end goal is the same, keep the normie acting like a docile dog.

                I haven’t responded because you started being rude. I wasn’t even the one to report you because I had to get back to work at the time.

                People just be jumping right to insults and then get surprised when it gets removed. You just called me stupid in this post for example, maybe take a step back from the computer.

                  As if saying my questions were rhetorical wasnt rude. You also immediately jumped to reporting my comment that was Not insulting, just because you don’t like being asked for details.

                  You’re just afraid to answer.

                    Diva didn’t do anything to deserve this type of response. I noticed you misgendering here and removed your post. It’s not acceptable behaviour on our instance.

                    You asked me a rhetorical question-

                    Whats the percentage of Chinas pop that are prison workers, disclosed and undisclosed?

                    How would I have any idea what’s undisclosed? if you have some information share it, I’m not going on an easter egg hunt just to answer a bad faith question unrelated to the point I was making.
