The Chinese govt. has an iron grip on the rights of its people. Can you imagine posting something against an official and then the govt censors sweep the internet and take control of your social media accounts, posing as you?

When inconvenient news erupts on the Chinese internet, the censors jump into action.
Twenty minutes was all it took to mobilize after Peng Shuai, the tennis star and one of China’s most famous athletes, went online and accused Zhang Gaoli, a former vice premier, of sexual assault.
Even as the censors broadly muted discussions, they were careful to leave some references to Peng. They kept Peng’s account on Weibo but made it nearly invisible by removing it from search results. They disabled comments on Peng’s posts and on other older articles that mentioned her name. The tactic effectively closed off digital forums where the curious might discuss the accusations.

It's crazy how the rest of the world goes along with this. The Wuhan virus, breaching the Hong Kong agreements, soon it will be Taiwan. Meanwhile, the United States handed over out manufacturing base to China. Hollywood and the NBA are gladly advocating for the Chinese Nazis. And we're too busy fighting BLM and the climate boogieman to notice.
