This is a huge false equivalence.
You won't see Chinese citizens publicly in favor of US/Europe but you will damn well see it the other way around.
E.g., some of my coworkers genuinely think it is ok for China to ban Western companies in the name of harmony but the US introducing the slightest of regulations is seen as fascism.
A discussion like this can't happen inside China on a popular platform.

This sort of false equivalency discussion is getting really annoying. Even Hacker News is partly blocked in China. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20600787 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20600787 If the US follows China's policies symmetrically, a ton more companies would be blacklisted.
