 I will not reply anything non-trivial on Chinese websites, since all of those will be taken down sooner or later, therefore wasting my time. I will just tell you to recontact on a non-Chinese website, or re-post your question with the answer on a Western website.
 
 If OP someone shitposts on GitHub and gets blocked, I will just make that clear by taking a web archive, posting a link on my comment, and setting the `op-block` label on the person's post: https://github.com/cirosantilli/china-dictatorship/labels/op-block

+That being said, <<ciro-santilli>> takes the agenda of information sources very seriously.
 
 E.g. he tries to clearly classify Communist Party, Falun Gong, and Western government linked sources.
 
-Any evidence of positive political progress will also be added to this repo, e.g. people openly discussing politics online, human rights activists doing political stuff and not being put into jail, etc.
+If we had more <<western-democracies-are-not-perfect>> content, then maybe this repository would be considered a more reputable source by Chinese people.
 
-Party promises do not count, only reports of activities by individuals.
+However, there are a few practical problems to that:
+
+* there is freedom of speech in the West and people can already see that information on newspapers who have a million times more viewers than this repo (and still obviously no conclusion was reached), there's no need to repeat that here

+  Conversely, bad China news are always OK because, because those are all censored in China and help Chinese people learn about it.

+* <<preconceived,people's minds cannot be changed>>, and notably <<effective,not in a language that most people of a country don't understand>>. This is why the primary goal of this repo is the <<keyword-attack>>: it does not require changing people's opinions.

+For those reasons, we currently forbid, posting several evil-West news without explaining why dictatorships handle it better. It would just generates more noise than signal.
