Yes but that is a difficult thing even in our society in the US. Then to project that to the world is harder. In the USA we have values that tend to see political censorship as evil, but in some other countries they see political criticism as insulting and a hindrance to government. I too thought for a long time that any place that censored or punished political dissidents probably was a place that had people yearning to be free. It is not necessarily true as we see in China. I don't agree with it from my values but then again I don't know what is good for the entire Earth.
