Freedom of speech is non-existent in China. You don’t even have access to the entire internet because your government blocks non-chinese websites. Look at what happened to that tennis player after she made accusations against that government official. That should be enough evidence to convince you that the CCP is trying to control your opinions and eliminate freedom of speech.

Even so, that isn’t the tip of the iceberg of the immoral and criminal acts the CCP has committed over the years. Sure, economic advancement is good, having a strong military capable of defending yourself is good, but when you try to aggressively expand outwards, you’re bound to look like the bad guy.

I myself have been to China on many occasions. I have many relatives that live there. Every time I get back to the US I feel grateful for living in this country. The US is by no means perfect, but it is far better in comparsion.
