I don't really agree with this, but consider this argument : Is it really a bad thing if different countries have different understanding of what's allowed/not allowed? If the whole world had the same system of governance, that could be dangerous too.

There's tremendous variance in what different societies, and segments within societies, find acceptable and unacceptable. That's not what this is about. This is about an unaccountable government imposing its idea of what is acceptable and unacceptable.
