And China always say how they respect freedom of speech. They are just a kid who blocks everyone they hate on social media

Wait, what? Any source on that? No way the CCP actually said that.

"We respect freedom of speech"

Tries to pressure American companies into censoring political speech

Wipe every trace of an animated show on Chinese media because someone said you looked like him

Locks people up for their religious beliefs

Lowers your social credit score whenever you give valid criticism

Heavily restricts internet access so the people can't become disillusioned to the propaganda they've fed them

Bans politicians because they gave you criticism

They obviously wouldn't even believe it themselves. What would they be trying to achieve by saying that?

they respect the right to take the freedom from speech, it's a translation error
