These become indistinguishable by "manufacturing consent".
- plankers 8y agoThe groupthink is quite strong in China. If you agree with the policies of the government, you get to live happily in society. If not, you're gonna have a bad time. It doesn't take a genius to decide that you'd be better off consenting, whether that consent has been manufactured or outright enforced.
