      Chinese people aren't regularly murdered in the streets by cops, so that's instantly a plus.

        I mean I’ve seen videos online of Chinese cops beating the living crap out of people, pretty sure they weren’t bourgeoisie.

        I would not be at all surprised at this point to learn that the Chinese execution vans are a complete fabrication. Is there any truth to that story?

          I thought that they were (are?) legit, but they're just part of China's normal legal process. Rather than having dedicated buildings for executions, you just have a few specialised vans that drive to places when it needs to be done.

          Capital punishment is still cringe and China's cringe for doing it, but the execution vans themselves don't make them any worse than any other country that has capital punishment.

        How much is “regularly” doing in that sentence? I kinda assumed one could simply say that they aren’t murdered by the police.

          I've never heard of anyone getting murdered by cops in China, but I can't say for certain that it never happens.

            I'm certain at least one person has been murdered by Chinese cops and he'll I'm sure there's most likely some institutional issues but I'm also quite sure it isn't the norm and I'm sure it isn't encouraged.

            Gotcha, I was wondering if it was thing, but like a limited thing that requires the distinction in regularity or not. Thanks for clarifying

      How does Chinese law enforcement handle the (fairly common) riots by work study students and temporary workers from the countryside?
