The thing is one does not know if they'll come or not. That is not the point. There is a general fear amongst the people that they'll be targeted for speaking out. Effectively blocking freedom of speech.
- tedhuang 6y agoThat's a false statement. There is general understanding one will only be questioned if the misinformation has caused a significant financial or social impact.
- Reelin 6y ago> will only be questioned if the misinformation has caused a significant financial or social impact Oh good, so I'm free to speak my own opinion as long as I don't actually try to accomplish anything!
- tedhuang 6y agoWell, if what you wish to accomplish has to rely on misinformation then China is the wrong place for you. People will come after you, you may end up need CPC's protection
- pirocks 6y agoNotice how you've changed the OPs concern about free speech to a concern about "misinformation".
- tedhuang 6y ago'pro-democracy' people are strongly associated with misinformation in China. That's why they have very few support and never accomplish anything all these years.
- AnimalMuppet 6y agoMisinformation? As defined by the CCP, or actual, objectively verifiable falsehoods?
- tedhuang 6y agoone of their lies is the crash of Three Gorges Dam, the 'pro-democracy' media repetitively report this every year..millions dead..blah blah. But it never happened, the dam is solid in good shape. the 'pro-democracy' movement is a complete failure in China and will continue to fail if they continue to behave like losers
