But it is mostly cultural. Individualism isn't nearly as important in China (and most of Asia) as it is in the West. And of course that translates to preferences and level of (un)happiness with the government and forms of governance. The west often operates under the false assumption that our way is the only right way and we easily dismiss these essential cultural differences.
> Im no expert but this is mostly due to surveillance right?
I don't think this is a logical conclusion. It certainly helps them in a way, but there was also no French revolution in China before modern surveillance was a thing. From a Chinese perspective many might be happy with their rise in importance and economic strength and the population grows wealthier each year.
