So your response to my comment pointing out that you're just attacking me, posting from a script and not engaging with the discussion is to what... Attack me, post some scripts and continue not to engage? If you just want to monologue, maybe make a separate post.
I pointed out the irony in your original reply and you've yet to address it except to make the courageous claim that there is no censorship in China. When I show counter examples it's back to ad hominims. Can you address the specific points of censorship please? I That's what we are talking about. "Addressing" two points as you have done gets you nowhere to defending your original claim that there is no censorship in the China.
Also another obviously dishonest point you added in your edit. Clearly your side has nothing to do with where your born, I don't know where you're from or who you are mate, it's about selective criticism where you only criticise one side and never accept criticisms of another side. I am happy to criticise any 'side'. I'm critical of the country I was born, of the US, the CCP and everyone in between.
I never made the claim that there is no censorship in China. That would be a ridiculous claim to make considering that there is indeed censorship in China. There is censorship in the West as well, though it is of a different character.
Edit to add: Chinese people aren’t afraid to discuss the Tiananmen riots, as smug online Westerners seem to enjoy believing. That’s ridiculous. But Westerners smugly believe it, in fact it seems as if they want it to be true.
I feel like we're playing word games now but maybe I just misinterpreted you. Are these topics censored on the Chinese internet or not? That was the whole point of my original comment.
I never said they were afraid to discuss them. Just that they were banned on the Chinese internet.
Ad hominim ad nauseum. This just makes it seem like there is no substance to what you're saying if you keep resorting to ad hominims.
