I don't really like how HRW does their reporting tbh. It basically consists of "here's some random Chinese article that suggests something that they might do, which, because China is a single-party state, MUST describe what they do" coupled with "here are some sources from US-funded parties detailing what they claim to be happening in China."

It's not a question of whether their statements are accurate, but it's a question of whether they've provided enough evidence to make those statements.
