Oh come on now.

Chinese have far bigger and far more strict word list bans.

In US, you need to say “people who menstruate” and “land owning person”; in China you will just just disappear if you say a wrong thing against the regime.

It’s about a lot more than just forbidden words. The ‘social justice’ fanatics are a black hole for productivity.

maybe

but the argument “I wish I was in China and I didn’t have to be careful what I say in public!” is so laughable if you have actually been in China or interacted with mainland Chinese

That wasn’t my argument at all. They just aren’t distracted like the West is. They are laser focused on becoming the best in everything.

What are you basing this on? Have you had any substantial interaction with Chinese engineers? I'm asking because I worked for a well known Chinese behemoth for nearly 6 years and my experience doesn't match your assertion.
