The implication of what they’re saying is that the Chinese government’s actions generally represent the will of the Chinese people so you can’t just separate them like you can with America.

Yes, hence why the CPC has overwhelming support. When they don’t do what the people want, you get protests and elected officials getting unelected.
Protests like in Tiananmen Square?
