    The “good guys” usually don’t have to suppress free speech and a free press.

      That is nonsense. Anyone and anything can be bad, even if in majority. West is fucking evil when compared to China, Russia or any of the “totalitarian” states they label. Cuba is sanctioned since over 65 years at this point. Korea was divided by USA, and USA bombed North Korea in 80s, and shits on them every other week. USA destroyed Japan tech industry when they became superior in late 80s. USA tried to kill Huawei few years ago on behest of Apple and CIA, but Huawei managed to survive.

      Or electricity that allows civilians to broadcast what’s actually happening.
      Or water that allows people to live.
