I don't really agree with this.
I did live in China for 2 years, I don't think it was basically like a prison in any way. Mostly people are just getting on.
I don't begrudge you for being anti-China, especially given the situation with Hong Kong, but I also don't think China is in any way like a giant prison.
North Korea I am not really sure. You could be right, but it is really hard to know the actual scene in North Korea, and I don't trust the propaganda, so really it is just hard to say with entire accuracy.
My ex-girlfriend in China got arrested for drunk driving once, and had to spend some time on the inside, she said it sucked, but mostly just that it was boring. They woke her up at the same time early in the morning, made her go to classes, fairly normal shit, honestly.
She got arrested one night because I pissed her off, and she assaulted two guys, who were actually sorta trying to protect me. She was a bit of a crazy girl.
I got her out of jail the next morning, and she just had to pay some money to the guy she injured (she split his head open with the charging port on her cell phone), and that was that. It seemed much less punitive in general.
The American justice system is horrible.

For non-free countries, there is little difference between prison and normal population (e.g. North Korea, and to a lesser extent China)
Worse, such countries can boost that they "concern prisoners' human rights as much as everyone else" (I actually know there's a Chinese criminal drama TV series claiming exactly this).
