    What does “authoritarian” mean? Shouldn’t we reserve that word for the country with the largest police force, biggest military, and the highest prison population per capita in the world?

      I wonder, do you think that the people that are being “re-educated” are counted as prison population…?

      I suppose that when you simply kill or disappear people that are political dissenters that you don’t have to worry about that prison population
