internet - Talking about the big-elephant-in-the-room

The discussion on how to deal with the western media obsession regarding the censorship on the internet in China, ESWN comes with his take on the issue. Since he is becoming very fast the object of many media-interviews, his dissenting views (dissenting from the Western media) are relevant, and funny too as he forces interviewers to ask not relevant questions.

Question: Can you imagine for us how it feels to live in a society in which speech is censored?

My actual response depends on the rapport that I have with the interviewer by this point. I may demur and simply say that I imagine that it must not be good. Or else I may snap back and say that this question is like asking a man whether a woman must be feeling a lot of pain when delivering a baby -- if you want the answer to that question, you ought to ask someone who is experiencing or has experienced it!!! This was just not a fair question to ask me.
All in all, I am a lousy subject for the big-elephant-in-the-room question.

Unfortunately, other, less media-savvy bloggers might not that easy get off the hook. Just ignoring this clash in culture is only helping ESWN.
