Uyghurs are in forced labor camps. That seems like worse bullying.
Afaik people in usa are now too. Imperialists are the worst, no matter the color of the rag they are proud of.
although i get your point, the usa, for all its many problems and atrocities, isn't specifically arresting people based on religion or ethnicity and hauling them into forced labor camps.
there are arguments that systemic racism, combined with forced labor in prisons, creates a situation in which there is de facto racial slavery (because statistically we know some black people will be wrongly arrested due to racism and forced to be slaves in prison), but despite this also being awful, it's not the equivalent of an explicit policy rounding up a religious minority for work camps
The US has the largest prison population in the world and the vast majority of those prisoners are of one specific ethnicity, and many states allow prison labor for either free or for next to nothing.
There is not too big a difference and both are evil
