    It’s kind of hilarious how libs always freak out over China doing censorship, but it’s pretty clear that the level of censorship in the west isn’t substantially different. The difference lies in what is being censored.

      In the west, censorship is a duty of corporations which points you towards what the real governing structure is in the west

        Exactly, and it’s absolutely hilarious to see how libs point to the fact that the government doesn’t do direct censorship in the west as an example of having freedoms. Like who do you think the government represents exactly, it’s the people who own the media. They don’t need a middle man to do censorship for them. They’re perfectly capable of doing it themselves.
