I misunderstood "Freedom"

I know what you say. Maybe I misunderstood your freedom. you gave me a lesson. We feel free compare our past. Freedom that you say is compared to other countries. I think it the difference. In TOEFL test we can not shoy any politics, discrimination. I think we have very long way to go to get the real and more freedom. The people should strive for freedom. No one can not give you if you strive for it. I don't know if I should emigrate from China to other countries for freedom. Or I stay in China to struggle for freedom.

In China the government is afriad that the west "freedom" would destroy China saftey and make socialism into capitalism. We fear we would have one second "Culture Revolution". In that time the people have too much freedom to battle other people, not enjoy freedom. No law protects individual freedom. We heavily look up on collective freedom. Only when we have and follow the laws, we can have the freedom.
