You know in your heart of hearts that this is a blatantly intellectually dishonest comparison. Nobody’s buying it, not even yourself.

True. CCP does not attempt to impose their censorship on other countries, while EU have asked Cloudflare to DNS block their wish list for the entire world.

FWIW, this is the least effective way to disagree with someone on the internet. Everyone knows it, even yourself.

(snark aside -- either say _why_ you disagree, or just don't engage at all if you think it's a troll.)

I'm buying it. Look up the number of people prosecuted in China for internet speech versus the UK (not even EU). The UK prosecutes more even though it has a much smaller population.
