Sadly, there is probably no way that Con can win if the BoP is equivalent. The most one can probably go on is that those aren't solid evidences.

Haha, be hopeful, maybe I'll instigate this debate and someone will absolutely deconstruct my arguments....

You don't understand communism if you say that unironically. Actual ideal communism doesn't require censorship. Censorship comes as a side effect of people not being fit enough to fully use communism or something.

communism=censorship

Well, our textbook is literally saying that such conduct is against the constitution so theoretically, even if they do so, they are doing it wrong.

What is correct is correct. What isn’t correct isn’t correct. Massive proofs are needed to prove that China didn’t violate human rights.

So far, evidence points at the Pro side of the debate, and that violating human rights is as wrong to the law as censoring people from saying so.

If your living in China, you better watch out; communist government would jail you for speaking out against the Chinese state. I'm not saying this to censor you; I'm saying it so you don't get into trouble by the communist government.

You intend on making a case?

As a Chinese, I vehemently accept the crimes against human rights that take place in China that are documented by authentic sources(such as Xinjiang Muslim torture, etc). There is nothing good in hiding them and the act of hiding those acts(and persecuting those who speaks out)directly goes against the Chinese textbook, where, in an ideal Chinese system, the average Chinese citizen has the right to criticize authority on their crimes done to other people. The fact that China isn't trying the best to build the system they taught the masses to be a good system in the end makes me facepalm hard every time I think about it.
