The country where some companies are installing fences on the roofs so that their working forces can't suicide so easily.

The specific company you're likely thinking of is famously American company Apple.

Or rather a legally distinct subcontractor that does nothing but produce products for Apple and is thus de facto a part of Apple regardless of legal ass-covering.

The country were political prisoners are being used as cheap working force

As opposed to the US where more or less ALL prisoners, some of which are political prisoners, are slaves?

In case there's any doubt, none of what I just pointed out exhonorates Chinese mistreatment of workers in any way.

Equally horrible or even less horrible doesn't ever equal good enough.

Yes, that is exactly why I wrote that it's not so different from the American system

Oops, guess I missed that part, my apologies. In my defense, it was late here 😁
