STOCKHOLM – Twenty prisoners live in one small room. They are handcuffed, their heads shaved, every move is monitored by ceiling cameras. A bucket in the corner of the room is their toilet. The daily routine begins at 6 A.M. They are learning Chinese, memorizing propaganda songs and confessing to invented sins. They range in age from teenagers to elderly. Their meals are meager: cloudy soup and a slice of bread.
Torture – metal nails, fingernails pulled out, electric shocks – takes place in the “black room.” Punishment is a constant. The prisoners are forced to take pills and get injections. It’s for disease prevention, the staff tell them, but in reality they are the human subjects of medical experiments. Many of the inmates suffer from cognitive decline. Some of the men become sterile. Women are routinely raped.

China doesn't count political prisoners in their statistics because these aren't prisons, they are re-education camps.
Imagine Nazi Germany was supplying 80% of the goods in American stores — with the Holocaust already known about — and everyone was just fine with it
This is EXACTLY what the domestic RAT communists here would do to us IF they could get away with it....or even worse.
Never, ever, give up your guns. It’s better to fight em to our last breath than to ever succumb to their utter evil BS on our knees.
Completely agree. All while American companies are expecting “growth” in China. They’re selling their souls for blood money. Tech companies like Facebook are developing AI to assist them. The NBA shuts down free speech for them. Almost all day-to-day payments, including being paid, are done via a phone app called “wechat” - which the government controls. Now they’re going to use the “social credit score” to determine your ability to access the internet, using face recognition as the key.
It is total control over the population, while being brutal if you resist. It’s already at insane levels and just getting worse.
The left in this country would have no problem imposing the same on everyone here.
Muslims cannot be allowed to spread their religion.
“I keep saying China is not Communist anymore. It is textbook Fascist. They only pretend to be Communist but in reality their economy, their government, their society... everything... textbook Fascist.”
You’re saying the Soviets never did such things??? Where were you? You’re saying North Vietnam never did such things when it invaded and took over South Vietnam?? I guess you never listened to the Vietnamese boat people, that numbered nearly a million. You’re saying that North Korea does not do such things?? All those cases were/are Communist countries. Where in the hell are you???
Actually all Communist China has done is put a different market face on its Communist government and system, and it is only a face. It is not a capitalist free market economy. It is a form of nationalist, mercantilist state-capitalist economy run by the Communist dictatorship that still, in that system, controls most of the largest businesses and industries, either directly or via who it is that owns most of the interest in a company, which is often the party, some party officials or some governmental unit. Then, through the party, the financial arms of the party - the Chinese banks - do as the party directs in terms of who is and is not going to get loans, and even who a company will or will not be able to partner with. No. The Communists in China simply have gotten more sophisticated than the old soviet system as to how the government & the party stay in control of everything, economically, financially, politically, and even “socially”. Control is what Communism calls for, and giving the appearance of independent private owners is fine, when the realty is that you are still the ones in control. By controlling the largest, the most and the most important, the hundreds of little outfits are caught in and dependent on those sectors the party and government control in one way or another. Their financial fate is caught up in the mass that the government and party have the levers over. It is not a “free market”, no matter how it looks to outsiders and even the sheeple of China.
Probably so, if you go by the saying that under Communism the state owns the means of production, but under Fascism the state merely controls the means of production. All else is the same.
“Hell yes we’re going to take your AR-15!”
Google is partnering with China (not the US govt) to develop advanced artificial intelligence. So much for their “motto “don’t be evil”.
Yes, a socialist is a communist screaming to get out, but does not want to expose himself until he has enough votes to finally eliminate the need for any more votes. A socialist wants to gradually, skillfully, constantly subvert a country into Communism, without firing a shot. And they are willing to take generations to do it.
“The goal of socialism is communism.” - Vladimir Lenin
Bad news. It’s a great quote but he didn’t say it.
Fascism works.

The goal of globalism is socialism.

Don’t remember my source, but I didn’t make it up. Prove your negative
How many do you think have “disappeared” from Hong Kong in recent weeks to places like this? The CCP will never say, but rumors are — thousands.
“> You wonder who could inflict such torture on people? <”
Someone who is trying to avoid similar torture on himself.
“A large number of camps have been established in that region over the past two years, as part of the regime’s struggle against what it terms the “Three Evils”: terrorism, separatism and extremism.”
Wouldn’t it be easier for China to just let the Uyghurs go their separate way?
Maybe they’re afraid that if they do, there would be other ethnic groups wanting to be separate and independent.
We are facing similar problems here between the left and the right and Latinos, blacks and whites and soon Muslims as their population grows.
Communists torturing muslims. Except for those who are misidentified as muslims, isn’t that simply a matter of devils torturing devils?
We better make sure neither group of devils ever seize control of this country, or we’ll be the ones who are tortured and killed.
Communism is demonic and China is the textbook example of that fact.
Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
