Two of the top university presidents in the country were taken down after daring to question the common narrative on the conflict in Gaza.
A whistleblower for a government defence contractor was just assassinated in the middle of legal proceedings against that defence contractor.
Whistleblowers are hunted after: Assange is struggling to avoid extradition and Snowden is stuck in Russia after being pressured to leave everywhere else.
Meanwhile, even legitimate presidential candidates like Sanders are given every disadvantage, most notably in terms of (a lack of) funding and superdelegate votes in primaries.
I can’t take you seriously at this point, we have protests here regularly and people speak out against the government like it’s a hobby. To imply otherwise is farcical to say the least.
Said unironically despite the USA having euphemisms like “extraordinary rendition” and “black sites”, within days of a whistleblower being found unalived, while the USA seeks extradition of Assange and can’t guarantee they won’t kill him, while Manning rots in a cell and Snowden is living in exile.
Oh, true! Perhaps someone could remind russki police of that next time they’re being arrested for holding a blank sheet of paper. Y’all sound dumb as hell.
What opposition leaders? What dissidents?

To the same extent this is true in both Russia and China, yes. Yet, what are their impacts on policy?
No.
Not even close.
Neither of those countries have constitutionally protected free speech and they both regularly disappear their people, even in other countries.

Like that Boeing whistleblower last week?
You’re making it seem like things are so much better here.
I’m sorry, are you trying to suggest that the US government offed a whistle blower for Boeing??? Why would they even do that? To what end?
Article 29 of Russian constitution and Article 35 of Chinese constitution prove you wrong.

It seems there’s an unspoken community rule against Un-American Activities
I genuinely don’t understand why Americans feel the need to the bidding of their fascist overlords… They get literally nothing out of it.
Doing this 2,340 times during one’s formative years might have something to do with it.
