    Laws were changed after this incident:

    In 2020, the National People’s Congress of China passed Civil Code and an amendment to Criminal Law that prohibit human gene editing and cloning with no exceptions

    So, in case you actually meant that weird ignorant remark you made about Uyghurs, the answer is no and no.

      It was a joke… You don’t get to jail for experimenting with slaves in China.

      Thanks for the information – good to know. I assume that like American law, he couldn’t be punished for something that wasn’t illegal when he did it?

      Regarding the Uyghur comment the other guy made, definitely a bit tasteless but I don’t think it’s that ignorant given the genocide China perpetrated against them.
