You were very clearly making a false equivalence there, trying to say that China is just differently bad from the US. All the oppression exists in the minds of western liberals who guzzle propaganda uncritically.

It’s a perfect example of people suffering from anchoring bias thinking the rules of a society they grew up in is the natural default.
