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.

If you believe that there are such things as universal human rights, and that they remain rights regardless of whoever says they aren't, and you think free speech is one of those rights, then yes, it's a bad thing. Not everybody does, and those who do cannot always agree on the details. But, some people do.
