    You are playing very loose with context. There are reasons to distrust all the Governments, which is why an uncensored internet is of value.

    Yeah so your argument boils down to it’s okay to dismiss the Chinese context because they’re categorically evil, but the Western governments have “good reasons” because they’re categorically good.

    Surprise surprise it’s just chauvinism.
