To be fair the US throws its weight around quite a bit on exporting its morality (human rights, democracy, freedom of speech, etc), and sometimes not to the best of results.

I don't know if there's been any large political organization that wasn't super pushy about its world view.

I think the issue is that its viewpoint is so different from America's. It's sort of like US politics, depending on who's in the white house the government can have a very different idea of reproductive rights, climate change, and religion/secularism.

Those are big changes but China's morality is even more different. Suddenly criticizing the government is treated like hate speech.
