To be honest, as European I think China and US are pretty similar in many ways (propaganda, law enforcement etc).

So said each country has their own problem but if anybody focus more on resolving their internal problem before teaching everybody how to live would be better.

In this forum is very hard to discuss anything serious that doesn't follow the prevalent opinion that you get down votes without reason.

You're probably attracting downvotes because comparing China (show trials, double jeopardy, arbitrary and whim-based penalties) to the US when it comes to capital punishment is not even remotely accurate.

The US has a police brutality problem, not a fair trial issue like China. And yes, long prison terms, a private for profit prison system and the death penalty in some states.

As a non-European, non-American and non-Chinese I find this utterly confused line of thinking depressing. It is clear Europeans are subject to their own propaganda in this regard.

You do understand that much of the news you read about the US is wildly exaggerated?

Having traveled and met various young Europeans they were often suffering from amazingly ignorant ideas about life in the US(particularly the Germans).

One couple was scared they might get shot while traveling along coastal California. Surprise, gun violence is not evenly distributed, most Americans don't encounter any gun violence.

Police violence? Never seen any except on TV. Weird hu?

Seems to be plenty of propaganda in your own news media, why do you think you are equating China & USA?

The same problem you're referring to is also true for news regarding China. Have you ever thought about it?

I've traveled for an extended time in both US and China and as you say you hardly get shot on a trip in California you also will not get arrested just for holding a foreign passport in Shanghai

As far I'm concerned I felt much safer in China for many reason that I'm not here to explain.
