> And I'm trying to say that "In the PRC people are jailed for complaining too much, or complaining about the wrong thing" is a mischaracterization at best, a complete falsehood at worst. I've found this to be the case after research.

I had an apologist describe it to be once like "if you want to suggest improvements in local government, or you want to make a request, as long as you do it respectfully, then there is no problem at all", as if that is what free people mean when they talk of complaint.

We've all had a nice refresher about what happens in China if you complain, about a sexual assault for example. For the sake of "social stability", of course.

You're just going in circles. Chinese people don't believe she has ever been in danger, and they believe Zhang will be dealt with.

Let's see who's right in a few years from now. Maybe she'll be vacationing in Europe like Jack Ma is today while Zhang received a punishment.

Yeah, with her family safe and sound under the watchful eye of the CCP. But hey, what's a little "disappearance" between friends, or family.
