Based on what? The US imprisons more people, kills more people, tortures more people. The only way to argue that China is more oppressive is basically to start with the assumption they are and then work backwards to justify it.
I listed a handful of reasons above, of which no one has denied or refuted. Just downvoted.
Actually you didn't. You listed a bunch of accusations against China (which were refuted, you just ignored that), but you didn't even try to explain how that's more oppressive than the USA. Even if all your accusations were true, the US is still more oppressive.
I see you are sticking with the pack here and going with generic denial and ignoring my arguments rather than actually refuting them.
Lol, everyone can see that both I and others have refuted your arguments. You pretending you can't see that only makes you look like a sore loser.
I'm not pretending. I actually can't see them.
I'd say that your client must be broken, but you're managing to reply to me, despite claiming you can't see my posts.
I can obviously see the ones I'm replying to. None of them refute my statements above.
So you were lying when you said you couldn't see them, because you've replied to ones that actively refute you statements.
No, I haven't.
now we've got another refutopolis warrior.
What does that even mean?
