Maybe, but the quiet part in that doctrine doesn’t refer to noise specifically, if I recall correctly.
Can you ask to transfer apartments?

It’s a good question but some people find political freedoms and fighting authoritarianism to be a very high priority. China’s government is more censorious than America’s even if in other respects China’s government is better. So people who care a lot about political freedom and fighting against censorship will find this a particularly worthy cause.

People are getting arrested and please remember that several decades ago people were shot to death for protesting at Tienamen square (sorry for the spelling). In China, you aren’t allowed to even mention or memorialize that event while in America you are free to memorialize the shootings at Kent State.
Many of the people criticizing China’s government on this thread also find plenty of fault with Americas. However, there are greater political freedoms in America than in China, where you can’t even search the internet freely and you aren’t allowed even to criticize the government.

It can include quiet in the literal sense, but it includes many different things relating to calm/peace rather than to noise. And exactly how much literal quiet it means is not black and white.
