The problem is not your average user but the advanced level of the US propaganda brainwashing system that has risen to this monstrous level thanks to constant social inner stability being dependent on it, and due to the external imperial model being dependent on it too for decades. So the US intelligence agencies have the world-leading advantage in this area.

Sure they have more practical experience, but China has also studied their techniques in isolation and carried out counterintel strikes.

What you're saying is like that a natural born virus that has reigned free outside will always without exception be more powerful than a lab created virus.

I don't think that's necessarily true, that just because something has been "out in the open" it would beat things that are researched in a contained "lab" imo would just come down to the minds of the people researching the brainwashing methods, and China should have a lead there.

They can run those comprehensive psychological manipulation tactics with bots, and they don't even need real users. If the Chinese internet ecosystem and officials can't account for that, then they shouldn't lift the firewall. This is very dangerous stuff. We don't need this kind of risk and potential disturbance just right as China is about to deliver the finishing stab in the monster's neck too, and is about to win the future of this world and finally collapse this malicious empire for better eternity.

Well, by lowering firewall, we are inviting US to come out and fight on neutral ground. Which would be a mistake, because as Tiktok and Rednote proves (along with all the other c-drama wave etc) is that the global majority is okay with going inside China's home court. There is no need to sally out into "neutral Internet" when we can just have the world come to China and leave US isolated inside the US firewall.

I agree with you. Far better strategy would be to keep GFW in place put open up selected portals to chosen Western sources and make sure these sources know that if they don't behave then the plug will be pulled on 1.1 billion visitors. Like opening up ports on your own firewall at home but you don't turn it off do you?

China is not going to willy nilly throw the gates open on the GFW. This is a re-tread of the SEZ experiment.

Start with a few places, like Shanghai. Work and re-work the model until the rest of the country catches up.

And then you open it up more and more over time just like Deng's path in turning China into what it is today.

The Great Wall is deep inside China today. Because when you are powerful the Wall doesn't protect any more, it restricts.
