Re: Severely endangering national security

I'm not sure about that.

You're never going to get 100% of a population agreeing on anything. Where would you draw the line?

You could say that if 99% of the population agree with the Chinese government's policies, then they shouldn't need to clamp down on dissent, but given the numbers involved, that could still be ~1.4 million dissenters.

I'm not supporting suppression, to be clear.
