China: this is what we are going to do

China: does the thing they just said they were going to do

China "watchers": no one could have predicted this

Westerners portray China's censorship as if it is to keep the Chinese people from knowing about certain topics, which would be laughable to any Chinese citizen.

It is quite obvious the goal of censorship is reinforce the notion that casually posting about politically sensitive topics on shitposting forums, internet image boards, and other mediums easily influenced & maligned by adversaries will result in your post being removed.

China clearly gives no fucks if all the exact same people had these exact same conversations offline as the US can't deploy 100k LibGPT color revolution bots on the ground in Chongqing.

The whole point is to avoid letting the West set the narrative. They don't need their narrative to be the only narrative. They just need to prevent the West from injecting theirs.
