Yes, true

Thank God that in China you can't simply be "disappeared", you won't be sent to reeducation camps, and you won't be slaughtered.

Right?

Good thing you ate the capitalists’ propaganda onion and are now doing their work for free, contributing to your continued exploitation.

Meanwhile people actually are being disappeared in the US right now, and people actually are subjected to forced labor.

And you don’t think this happens in China?

I have no reason to believe people are being disappeared, no, but I do have reason to believe that the US and its junior partners will continue claiming that they are. It’s big business.
