Hopefully soon more Americans realize how similar your country and China are, the differences are minor, not major.
So if you’re a Chinese citizen, go ahead and type out your name and where you live, along with a list of things you feel your government is wrong about.
The issue isn't that you aren't writing this post with no pause of concern.
The issue is that after writing it, and, presumably, comprehending what you, yourself wrote, you still harbor the delusion of maintaining some moral high ground (as are some other posters in this thread)
The US maintains a lot more freedoms for its citizens simply due to exerting vast military power to siphon resources from the entire planet (with exceptions to China/Russia, obviously). Otherwise, it's entirely unknown and hypothetical as to whether it would or could be a "shining beacon of democracy" as so many would like to believe it currently is (which it very well may be, compared to CCP/Russia, which is not a very high bar)
I think this is the perfect problem for you not us - to work that out. You're not gonna end where you think.
Stuck for an approach? Look at the 2015 Nobel prize in literature and try that in china then in the US.
We are very definitely better than them.
