Censorship is indeed a test of the government's judgment. But the problem is that those in power often can't decide what to delete and what to keep, resulting in chaos. True free speech should not be treated as a business to be managed by officials. Acting as censors is fundamentally flawed and should be firmly opposed. Instead of blocking, it’s better to loosen restrictions. Allowing people to express themselves fully and engage in debate and collision often yields much better results than top-down speech regulation. Things that cannot be suppressed will eventually erupt; open discussion is the way out.

Once the power to wield the censorship pen is in hand, there are no real standards, and in the end, no one can say for sure.

堵堵堵, the more you block, the more problems arise. Who still listens to that these days?

Basically, once you gain power, you can't hold it steadily, and deleting things randomly only makes it worse.

Blockages can't be stopped; what is meant to come will come. Instead of fixing things after the fact, it's better to be open and honest from the beginning.
