The only interesting point in that article was that it openly calls China an adversary of the US.

On the political stage, China is a huge frenemy. The US and China are deeply tied to each others' fates by trade, but they certainly compete in many areas of national prestige, technology, ideology, etc.

I think it's a fair claim to say that a major US trading partner and ally in the business of international peace has adversarial ideological positions to the United States on the topic of free speech.

>adversarial ideological positions ... on the topic of speech

my parse of this is:

"what you are permitted to say about the Overton window differs between countries"

I suppose we had long reached metalevel propagandizing.
