Only free speech is free speech. Almost every country has explicit laws that are rarely worth prosecuting so the singular experience of not getting prosecuted is not an accurate measurement for a places laws.
The west is much more lenient then asia in regards to free speech. I am not contesting how varying too points on the same spectrum can be.
For an absolutist like me your argument appears like a invitation to meet in the middle. You would consider both china and my perspectives as being extremist and the current way of the west that is not being perfect as the preferred system.
I have to disagree with such argument on principle, i see great potential in a more radical status quo, accepting the current system as good or neutral devalues the anarchists goal.
