Dissent, especially in China, is heavily policed. They took our dystopian monetary credit system and cranked it up to 11 with social credit
Lmao. Not even ForeignPolicy falls for such a blatant CIA talking point. Social credit is a measure to curb companies that act against the interest of people in the pursuit of profit, individual people don’t come into the equation, you’re to the right of warhawks on this one. To claim China is doing worse than the US is pure copium, it’s like citizens of Nazi germany going “sure, Hitler might be bad, but wait til you learn about what he says the soviets are doing” which to be fair y’all also do.
The fact that you and I are allowed to post about America’s past transgressions and speak highly critically of the government (and believe it or not, I do that quite a lot) is proof that we as a global superpower are freer than them,
Oh, yeah. Huey P. Newton, MLK, Malcolm X, the entirety of the Ferguson protest organizers, Leonard Peltier, all of them free to speak their mind. Gary Webb and Julian Assange have been so highly commended for their work as well, you’re so free in the land of the biggest carceral population in human history. I stg you could slot a gringo into fascist Italy and retexture it with icons of Americana and they’d feel right at home.
Lots of claims with zero sources but I wouldn’t expect it from people who read a RFA-regurgitated headline and consider themselves thoroughly informed on the matter. Glad you don’t want more violence in Xinjiang, but fret no more, China worked on solving it via schools instead of black sites like the US did, and succeeded where the US and its weapons makers profit from ensuring failure.
