Unfortunately tankies throw out the good parts of liberalism along with the bad, and endorse throwing people in gaol for wrongthink.
There really aren't any good parts to liberalism. If you're a liberal and the current year starts with a 2, you're a monster. Like full on, need to be forcefully reducated kinda monster.
But to your second point, all nations, societies, and groups need to do that. It's a fundamental aspect of society. There hasn't been a society yet that doesn't.
Not being arrested for publicly disagreeing with the government is a good thing.
Depends on the disagreement. If you think the country should burn and it's people suffer and are advocating for that, you should maybe be arrested.
