I watched an HK detainee get tortured in a hospital in horror, then remembered we kill thousands of unarmed people every couple years without any trial (many of whom are innocent) and 50-60% of victims are either mentally or physically disabled in some way. Many of them get tortured in similar ways if they make it to prison.
In a different framing, the US looks pretty horrible in comparison to China. It's just that we have gotten used to our own brand of stink.
