And the fact of the matter is that people in China who don't like the President do have the ability to talk about how much they don't like him. They just don't have the freedom to do so and collude with foreign governments, or plot against the government, which is pretty much exactly the same as here. I'd say the only real freedoms that the Chinese don't have revolve around obscenity laws and how they are enforced, but everything has become increasingly more Victorian (with the exception of algorithmic content) regardless of Chinese market influence, because sex isn't what sells, the implication of potential intimacy is what sells.
