- backpropaganda 9y agoYeah. That's precisely the idea behind "freedom of speech", that even if you're restricted in doing a lot of things, the restrictions on talking about is as little as possible. Talking about it influences opinions, and when critical mass is reached, even autocratic governments sometimes are forced to abide by the consensus of their people. Noone's claiming that China is a better or more progressive country btw, just that in this very specific regard, US is worse than China.
