>I'm speaking as a Chinese citizen who is totally in favor of this But if you were opposed and spoke out, you would be punished, so why should we trust you to

  That’s not how the system works, only what the western propaganda wants people to believe. I’m sure I won’t be punished because of saying i oppose that. It's only possible that I get some kind of punishment if I'm influential enough and engage in activities that deemed to be a threat to the government.

    First of all, how do you know for a fact that the government doesn't publish everyone who speaks out, or is not moving in that direction? Speech certainly has become far more restricted in the last few years. But even if what you say is true, it means that that speaking out has no impact on governmental policy, since if you start to have influence on the public you get shut up. And if that is the case, why should anyone ever bother to speak out. Why don't you just admit it, you like living in a dictatorship.
