You’re not going to see a significant suicide rate, if the people who might kill themselves, are killed by something else first. Mostly looking at NK.
As for China, their population is so large that almost any bad stat looks small. Zoom in on someplace like Hong Kong, and the stats go right back to concerning.
But if per capita stat is small isn’t it just a good thing in general? If you cut up the population groups into multiple population sized chunks with the compared countries, they each will still have a better number.
It’s like we normalized stats PER CAPITA so population number don’t really affect it!
That China averages out to stats that look OK, doesn’t make the stuff happening in HK or Xinjiang go away.
If you cut up the population groups into multiple population sized chunks with the compared countries, they each will still have a better number.
Not necessarily. If you average everything, that hides any outliers.
The bigger the sample size for your stats, the less it tells you. You could have an entire country’s worth of people in China, living in conditions that lead to horrible stats, and have that essentially disappear in the stats of the whole country.
You should break stats down into smaller chunks. But not just arbitrarily. Do it by province, city, district. That’s how you find the problem areas. The bigger the area you measure, the less the stats tell you about the individual citizens.
The US tried to foment division in China by funding and organizing Salafi terrorist into Xinjiang, and once its efforts failed, it made lemonade out of its lemon by concocting and promoting a genocide narrative.
The only countries pushing this narrative are the “always the same map” imperial core countries, which just so happen to be largely the same ones supporting Israel’s genocide.
Almost no predominantly-Muslim country buys the Uyghur genocide narrative, because they know it’s bullshit, because they talked to the Uyghurs themselves. https://twitter.com/un_hrc/status/1578003299827171330
#HRC51 | Draft resolution A/HRC/51/L.6 on holding a debate on the situation of human rights in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of #China, was REJECTED.
Perhaps higher, because Hong Kong was under British imperialist control until recently, and was capitalist until recently, like Taiwan and South Korea are.
Well yeah.

That’s not really my point.
You can’t cancel out bad things with good things.

What’s happening in HK & Xinjiang?

Hmm I wonder why Hong Kong specifically would have a concerning suicide rate

The increase is recent, and still rising.
Unless you have evidence that such a hypothetical is actually occurring, why float it?
That’s not how per capita rates work.
