Which part of comparing incarceration rates do you take issue with? Why is acknowledging the difference "mindless?"
That's all this post was about, though, a comparison showing that per capita (and totally), incarceration rates in the PRC is far lower than in the US Empire. The purpose is to highlight the hypocricy of those who hold the PRC as more repressive than the US Empire, when the opposite is abundantly clear to anyone looking at hard metrics such as incarceration rates.
You decided to make a pivot in a completely different direction and just complain about Marxists, which just screams that you want attention more than anything. I suppose I'm providing that for you if that's what you want, but really it's just good practice to call out the incoherence of anti-communists.
