It’s because they want their propaganda—and their censorship—to be out in the open.
Is that an assertion/conclusion or is it written down somewhere?
I’m sure it’s been written about, but I don’t know of any off the top of my head.
China is explicit about what can’t be said, and the structure and mechanics of censorship are public knowledge. Conversely in the West, and especially in the US, there’s a claim of freeze peach and a sprawling, multi-layered, plausibly-deniable system of speech suppression.
