One of these searches is incredibly damaging to Chinese interests, one to US interests.
Try doing them in each country.
At the same time I agree very strongly that China is nothing like the former USSR, let alone the current North Korea.

But the people you mention, once go back to China, are behind the firewall, and everything they do is subject to surveillance and censorship.
Ask your friends if they would feel safe to go and openly/publicly criticize the communist party of China and hear their answers.
It only takes them to go and acknowledge membership to Falun Gong/Falun Dafa for them to be put into a organ donor list (while still alive).
Disclaimer: I know a bunch of people -- friends, colleagues, neighbours etc that are Chinese/or of Chinese descent.
1. - they got here somehow -- was it hard?. No. They did not have to escape on a raft like Cuban exiles. They just left and noone bothered them.
2. - They seem to be communicating with their families in China with no issues. You know, SMS, email etc
3. - They also travel back and forth, this includes kids, parents, grandmas and grandpas.
Overall, the funny thing is that I never heard any of my friends/colleagues complain about China.
Meantime, CNN and Fox etc keep saying that China is like devil, except worse.
Guess who I trust.
