Don't try to equate a bill that allows someone to make a choice to decrease prison time, with a concentration camp where they harvest organs and hair, and "reeducate" people to believe China #1. One is dumb, the other is evil.

I get worried sometimes about my country's (Australia) invasive online privacy laws. China doesn't allow proper internet access, and if you think you have nothing to worry about, just Baidu-search "Tiananmen Square 1989" or "why did the Dalai Lama leave Taiwan". I'm sure you'll be fine...

"Tiananmen Square 1989"

"why did the Dalai Lama leave Taiwan"

That's easy, the CPC and Tibetan masses didn't let him keep the theocracy that allowed slaves/serfs to be tortured by the feudal lordship and women to be barred from education.
