People from controlled societies confuse a free society with being a 100 % free and perfect society.
And its disturbing that most of the Chinese here are based in the west and have experienced first hand what freedom is.
Their is no such thing as absolute freedom.
Till the 90s when communal riots were quite common, the media would not and could not publish the name of the community effected in a riot. This was to prevent escalation as both communities were unsure who was at the recieving end. And i can assure you muslims were much more reactive till the 90s to any perceived insult or slight and would riot quite easily.
So this was a self imposed restriction by the old media.
But social media has made all this self censorship irrelevant and this is gone from the national media.
2ndly Indian states look after law and order. The central government cannot physically enter a state without imposing emergency. Which is very rare now since exit of indira Gandhi.
You saw this in west Bengal where the central forces on election duty faced a lot of hostility from the opposition party which is ruling. With allegations of the central forces helping bjp etc , till the bjp lost badly. Then they shut up.
The problem is not freedom as much as the media houses choosing camps. Not only in India but same phenomenon in usa. Like cnn is so virulently against trump that its coverage is totally biased.
So freedom is required not only from official sources but freedom from political bias is more important.
All the violence you have enumerated is more from local power centres and very scant from central government.
In India journalists are undoubtedly harrassed by the government but its done officially. And they are normally out on bail in a short period. As the governments know it wont stand in court.
Its more dangerous when like in Pakistan journalists are shot and no enquiry takes place or they are picked up by the isi in unmarked vehicles and disappear for months. And on release dont say a word about their absence.
China is a different category where people have no rights. Its all for the party. Like people are being picked up in hk and imprisoned for long terms under dubious laws.
In mainland China with 99.6 % conviction rate, you have zero redressal chances and just keep your mouth shut. People are like machine parts. To be used and discarded.
Come on lil guy, dont be ashamed of embracing what you are.
You know, this western propaganda that you have been taught in Utopian States of P--nHub & trying to con people with are too outdated. Poor colony india didnt even get upgrade in syllabus, so bad.
You see, "the free society" consisting of colonizing convicts & criminals forgot to tell you, You don't need a country to be free. You can do that in jungle of amazon, like the failed wannabe Disneyland that is Utopian States .
The basis of being a citizen of a country is- I am loyal to my motherland to the last breath. I am everything that my country needs me to be.
Of course, you, the indians, calling you in your rented names, would not understand that because your "country" is actually a British empire bred colony, whatever it made you to be, like other "free societies" on Native america or aboriginia.
Poor indians need to do better than that to "counter" us in internet, at least your masters in west know how to make up "evidence". You indians, you are just so worse. Not that we expected you to be better in standard in list of loyalist pets, but sure you bark too much. No wonder even your masters find your service worthless.
Chillax, take it easy
