I never said it’s OK for the government to control speech undemocratically like happens in China, maybe I didn’t explain myself well.
My point is: I would prefer the government decides democratically what can and cannot be told. And I am fine with a very liberal standard, in which almost everything can be told.
I am pretty much a free speech absolutist. Everything can be said in my opinion.
But, if limits are imposed by a democratic government they will at least follow some democratic standard. Limits imposed by private companies will only follow the money!
