> I find China is useful as a mirror to the US. If they are doing something problematic, it's highly likely the US gov is too but just hasn't disclosed it to the public.

You think the US is engaging in systematic genocide? I'm guessing not. If so, you should consider why you would say something so ridiculously out of step with reality.

Well, let's count how many people the USA killed with 2 wars in Irak, one in Afghanistan, one in Vietnam and countless operations in South America. Or how they mostly put non white people in a privatized prison system that then exploit them. Or how their police is so peaceful and close to the population the entire country had a debate about de-funding it.

Sure, China is worse, but it does make a useful mirror. Like Russia was a useful one during the cold war.
