It isn’t anything specific to communism. The horrors human inflict upon each other is pretty sad and telling.

#6In the article he mentions “Their goal is just to exterminate all Uighurs in one way or another”, if that is the case, why not just shoot them all? Why did they let him out?

Ultimately, this is specific of any form of government with too much power over its people. That’s a requirement of communism which is why this is often attributed to communism as an expected outcome.
It’s entirely possible in any form of government that disarms and controls its people, rather than empowers them.
