A couple days ago, I suggested the US is starting to act like Iran:

Today I found this essay which compares the US to China:
I urge you not to ignore such comparisons. While the US currently isn't throwing people into camps or raping their wives, the same sentiments which led to such actions in China and Iran are present in a large fraction of the US population.
We totally ignored the US Constitution and even common sense following the 9/11 attacks, and we quite easily could go down a similar path in the wake of the Jan. 6 "insurrection".
There is more than one reason the prison at Guantanamo Bay is still open. And at least one of them may be the reason "our" Congress hasn't declared that the President does not have the authority to torture or kill US citizens without due process. You are kidding yourself if you believe it cannot happen here.
