I don’t think anyone doubts there are good things that come from China. Using a throwaway account won’t help your cause marketing China. Like every other “superpower” China has their major, major flaws. The kicker is trust. Pro-China rhetoric on a highly-moderated forum should be met with skepticism.

This isn’t opinion. The great firewall of China isn’t a farce, it would be good to remember that.

So because there are bad things in China nobody can say anything that's not negative about China? Or how do you see things?

It sounds more like the concern is that a post coming from China has a significantly higher likelihood to be state-sponsored propaganda than a resident’s/citizen’s genuine opinion. It makes sense on its face that it would be “higher” (that’s the point about the Great Firewall) but it seems to be a matter of personal opinion how “significant” that increase is.

> won’t help your cause marketing China

by what means did you determine that was his cause?
