In which China can you say you disagree with the government?

Meanwhile in the U.S.: You disagree, you protest, you vote, and nothing ever changes for the better. That's true freedom.

Or the journalists who have been detained under anti-terror laws and given impossible bail conditions that mean that merely existing, never mind actually doing journalism, puts them in breach so that the government can imprison them for 5 years or more on a whim without trial.

Or the Cop City protestors who have been charged with terrorism (or outright murdered).
