Russian and Chinese authoritarianism is bad. America incarcerates more people than both. A French cop shooting a 17 year old during a traffic stop is probably also not a useful use of state force. I could be wrong, but I hope this answers your question.

Let him answer, he is a 7 hours old account who is shouting "all cops are bad" at the young people. I want his version.
