Though he did clarify they don't have a worse police state than the US. He just both-sides it.

Edit - It's a law of hexbear that every discussion must turn into a struggle session. Especially if the discussion involves China.

    it's not changing the fucking name, it's literal replacement with something better. when people call to 'abolish the police' they call to abolish the fucked up system of an armed group of thugs that have impunity to law. cuba has 8 million people in their fucking neighborhood watch, and yes they still have a smaller force that handles specialized issues, but the fact that 80 percent of their population takes place in their neighborhood watch is what keeps their country the way it is, and is far more aligned with the idea of communism than having anything comparable to the police in the US.
