Am I overstating it? Maybe the opposite. Look up "forced organ harvesting" in China. It happens to political dissidents, Uyghurs, Falun Gong, Tibetans, and other "troublesome" groups.
Btw, I see now that I seem to be replying to something slightly different than what you said. Well, too late to change now, and maybe this info is still useful.
It wasn't so long ago we were trying to support the masked students pulling down surveillance towers in HK. They've in all likelihood, been sent to reeducation camps.
