population needed to be publicly executed.

They would position the condemned in such a way that the skull, blood, and brains would fly onto those forced to watch.

People reported seeing trucks with bodies in the back, dripping blood onto the street, as they took them to mass graves.

The policy was designed to terrify the Chinese population to its core so they wouldn't challenge the CCP in anyway and to exert that anyone could be executed at any time for anything and nothing.

Seems we are just a few steps away from that as these arrests are made publicly and in some of the most terrorizing and brutal fashion.

Maybe Agent Orange and his minions are the actual Communists.
