I'm tired of fighting this stuff. The forces allied against internet freedom are just too large for us regular Hacker News nerds to deal with. What we need is a mass awakening of normal people who see the effects of internet censorship and demand a reversal. And sadly, that might not be possible until the normal people get a taste of censorship to realize they don't like it. So now I think, the sooner we go full China the sooner we can get things back to normal.

No, totally wrong. It's the accelerationist's fallacy because it will cause unnecessary suffering and damage that isn't undoable because polices, laws, culture, and attitudes aren't repairable like a broken machine or a zero sum game. Hence "burn it all down" brings terrorism rather than "renewal".
