The US is also a secretive, authoritarian government with an established disregard for human rights, as recent events have shown again.
I'm not sure there are recent examples of US actions that even compare in scale or scope.
-- edit:
This also doesn't even get into the scale of the nation state cyber espionage activities. If you work in any government agency, or work with the government, your networks are under constant attacks.
Big claims like that's require evidence? Do you have any? The UN human rights commissioner has been repeatedly invited to Xinjiang for years yet still hasn't gone.
Why are a large group of Muslim countries publicly supporting China's efforts in the region to reduce extremism?[1]
The more you look past the sabre rattlers the shakier all this supposedly common knowledge looks. Trace it back far enough and it all leads to Adrian Zenz, whom the BBC called a "world leading expert on Xinjiang", except Zenz can't read or speak Chinese, he's an Evangelical missionary whose "scientific" paper on Xinjiang that's so often quoted by the media contains strange Bible references, his published books are on how to survive the coming rapture and contain lot of bigoted statements against homosexuals.
Just wondering if Zenz is your source here?

Secondly IRAQ war or Afghanistan regime changes kill MILLIONS. Gitmo. Hypocritical at best. CIA has funded guerilla efforts to sabotage BRI if you want to know what that truly is about
I remember that in WW2 both the Nazis and U.S. put people in camps, so they must have been morally equivalent.
