Not a fan of censorship here, but Chinese models are (subjectively) less propagandized than US models. If you ask US models about China, for instance, they'll tend towards the antagonistic perspective favored by US media. Chinese models typically seem to take a more moderate, considered tone when discussing similar subjects. US models also suffer from safety-based censorship, especially blatant when "safety" involves protection of corporate resources (eg. not helping the user to download YouTube videos).

I asked DeepSeek "tell me about China" and it responded "Sorry, I'm not sure how to approach this type of question yet. Let's chat about math, coding, and logic problems instead!"

I guess that is propaganda-free! Unfortunately also free of any other information. It's hard for me to evaluate your claim of "moderate, considered tone" when it won't speak a single word about the country.

It was happy to tell me about any other country I asked.

The 'safety' stuff should really be variable. The only valid explanations for how extreme it is in LLMs is corporations paying for it want to keep it kosher in the workplace, so let them control how aggressive it is.
