Similarities between the US and China

Censoring reporters' questions
The image that Japanese people have of the United States is one of "freedom."
However, having been born in the U.S., raised in the U.S., and attended U.S. universities, I can tell you that there is no other country that has as much freedom as the U.S., and no other country that is as unaccepting of different ideas as the U.S.
I would even say that the only countries equal to the US are the dictatorships of China and Iran.
Even after the Biden administration took office, there was news like this.
Before White House Press Secretary Jen Saki took the stage, her assistants were sifting through reporters' questions.
Censorship of questions is common in dictatorships such as China, but the American liberal media also embrace it.
Under the Trump administration, the liberal media did not hesitate to ask tough questions to the press secretary and the president.
In the Biden administration, opposition to the administration disappeared, and flattery became the norm.
As readers may know, most of the American media are flattered by the Democratic Party.
For example, Obama's deputy aide Ben Rhodes proudly said in an interview with The New York Times Magazine (a separate volume of the New York Times) in 2016: For then-President Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry to make the Iran nuclear agreement a reality, they spread the lie (propaganda) to the press that negotiations had begun between President Obama and Iran's religious leaders, and they make the press spread it.
Saki was also involved in Rhodes's lie campaign and provided false information to the press.
It was all too easy," Rose said.
However, the liberal media, which believe the Obama administration's announcements without getting the truth, are the "snowflakes" who follow the administration even if they are wrong.
The liberal media, which spews government propaganda like a robot, is not scared of the government.
They are afraid of falling out of the liberal "consensus circle.
For the liberal media, the pro-Democrat, globalist, decarbonization, gay marriage, and pro-abortion ...... consensus are "sacred books" that should not violate.
Those who disrupt the consensus lose their place.
Washington Disease
The views of the liberal elite have become "God's law," and they utterly despise differing opinions. In fact, Trump was falsely accused of Russiagate, and even after he left office, they put him on trial for impeachment.
I call this state of the liberal elite the "Washington disease.
Twitter, Facebook, etc., are carrying out a modern-day "witch hunt" as the elite's sentinels.
It even feels as if Washington and Los Angeles have as their goal the complete unity of thought of all people.
This is the exact opposite of the founding spirit of the nation: Freedom.
The Washington disease elites are not acting in the best interest of the nation.
For example, it is almost certain that the Wuhan virus leaked out of the Wuhan Virus Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
The Chinese Communist Party is extremely responsible for covering up the mass infection.
However, for many years, Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases in the United States, had donated huge sums of money to the Wuhan Virus Research Institute.
Fauci and Peter Dasack, the head of a non-governmental organization (NGO) dedicated to preventing infectious diseases, used the legally prohibited donations to help the Wuhan Institute of Virology study coronaviruses under the guise of "international cooperation.
It will contain the Wuhan virus soon.
But there is no vaccine for Washington disease.
This is because it is a problem of the elite's "mind.
Japan should not emulate the U.S. but use it as a negative example.
