So China infringes on human rights, in other news "water is wet". Not really newsworthy. I would be shocked if it was Iceland or Norway doing that.

As much as we hate hearing about it, only the Chinese people have the power to make changes to this regime. Having met many Chinese students abroad, I'd say they are OK with this happening. Either they are apathic, or supportive of their totalitarian regime.

there is a lenghty (and horrible) documentary on this focusing on the persecution by authorities of a non-violent movement of .. whatever it is called.. across China. The documentary came out in the USA right around the time that major trade policies were changed under Biden, which seemed not-coincidental. Once the finger pointing starts in this thread, lets remind ourselves that peace is possible, starting now. edit…

Those who would make peace with tyranny do not deserve peace.

I am astounded by the lack of empathy in what you've written.

Why do people do this?

Fear. State-sponsored vivisection is a pretty strong deterrent against dissent.

China is run by gangsters, essentially. They make Mexican cartels look like Mother Theresa on some levels.
