No. But, moderation for the sake of the eventual societal consequences is the default in the Chinese (PRC) system. It's not necessarily a bad system. Their ideas have lifted a billion people out of poverty. But, it's not ours.

I'm not at all sure what you're trying to say, one comment seems to conflict with the next.

I'm saying that censorship like this is incompatible with the western values as we know them. Yet this doesn't invalidate what the Chinese have accomplished. It's possible to have two conflicting ideas at the same time.
