    The same country that accuses China of having “labour camps” (though that’s a new one gotta admit) is the country that has the highest prison population in the world in absolute numbers as well as per capita. The only country for which the term “school to prison pipeline” applies, and for which it was created. The only country that overly jails their minorities – their Black population – so that they can benefit from their labour renting them out to companies while the prisoner gets 18 cents an hour for that labour.

    That country has no right to talk about human rights until they fix their own mess, and this goes for their citizens as well.
