So we spent like what, 20 years saying China censorship bad and finding sneaky ways to get them in the global Internet via VPNs and Tor and Tor bridges, and now we want to make our own?
That'll go well.
We don't want that. A very small group of very small spoiled children do.
A very small group of spoiled children with outsized wealth and political power*
Everything they accuse others of is what they want. The projection is absolutely insane. Children grooming, limiting free speech, stealing elections, stealing jobs, everything...
That's been the plan all along. Just needed the big bad Chinese Bot to come along to start nudging the idiots of Xitler and r/conservative to start clamoring for their own Great Firewall to protect their freedom.
They're already putting porn behind a government firewall in many red states. They're coming for everyone else now.
