I mean, it's obvious that you have no idea WTF daily life is like in China. I just ran down a list of possibilities and explained how travel works in China and you just posture like a bratty toddler.

Why do you feel a need to knee-jerk glorify and defend a nation-state you've never lived in or associated with? I didn't even badmouth the place, simply described a facet of life in China without hyperbole

    You were caught lying about Chinese people not having freedom of travel. You're going to have to learn to accept that.

    Why do you feel a need to knee-jerk glorify and defend a nation-state you’ve never lived in or associated with?

    Because it's a target of the USA. Simples.

    simply described a facet of life in China without hyperbole

    A completely irrelevant facet of life that had nothing to do with what we were talking about.

    You have a bizarre definition of freedom of travel

    Although I suppose on a grander scale, nobody truly has freedom of travel. But it's rare for citizens of a nation-state to need to be granted access to other cities and provinces... So on a relative scale, they don't. I'm not sure how you can say otherwise 🤔
