It would be an honest comparisson if e.g. Telegram gets more popular in the West and there would be actual temptation to pressure it. We actually already see the first signs of it in Germany, where anti-lockdown protestors are using Telegram and the government doesn't like it.
And remember what had happened to TikTok as soon as it became massively popular? It was forced to surrender and get sold without a second thought.

Platforms like that exist, but are generally called despicable by people because of the multitude of generally supressed voices that are heard on platforms like that. Neither is Youtube, or Facebook. Ever since 2015 and 2017 dissident voices in the west have been banned from all these platforms.
