You're comparing apples to oranges here. The USA is supposed to be capitalistic, free market, yada yada. China doesn't make that claim.

The main point the comment you replied to is trying to make is that the US doesn't put their money where their mouth is.

No. But which nation claims to be all about freedom, and which is known for restricting individual liberties for (whatever the people in charge consider to be) the greater good?

It's really silly to judge nations on their claims rather than their outcomes.

PRC restricts guns ownership, but to make your example less stupid, PRC shooting ranges has access to western pattern arms vs US where civies has more freedom to own guns but you know... not sanctioned Chinese origin guns. So even on muh 2nd amendment grounds, PRC within their right to play with guns (again not own), still less protectionist than US. Which mirrors how you know, almost every major US tech brands operated in PRC with reasonable controls/oversight but not vice versa.
