I imagine it could be if you were a minority or a political dissident.
The fact that so many people went through sexual and gender self discovery on Tiktock, but such things are discouraged by the government in China says a lot that makes me uncomfortable.
Not being able to openly criticise the government and its policies also doesn't sit well with me.
It's not my government though, so that's where my criticism ends. If that's what the majority of people want, that's just democracy by another avenue. So long as people are allowed to leave if they choose, then that's fine.
Just take a look at uighurs or tibet, china is indeed horrible place if you arent first class citizen
Sounds like the US in about a year
I guess it makes sense not to use one's psyops arsenal at one's own people.
