The scale in which the Chinese Government is bad dwarfs the bad things the US Government may do. No Government is perfect, but there are orders of magnitudes in difference between the badness of the US and that of the Chinese Government.
And ~22% of those are unsentenced detainees.
Doesn't mean it's a good thing to allow easily to break a leg.
Americans have been watching too much TV stating how great their country is, they now repeat it again and again without thinking about it. I've never seen any other free country population doing that anywhere in the world, and I travel a lot. It's even weirder when I come in the Valley and see that from the inside. Boy are you delusional.
As much as I detest America and their government, I'd rather a American hegemony than a Chinese one.
