Well hosting a mirror from my open source project don't make me endorse any regime. I host my code in github and gitlab not because I endorse their countries. Your code being hosted there supports the local people there, developers that, like you and me, just want to survive and ship code.
You don't need the government to solve this problem, they helped create the problem in the first place. You need to reform your political system to actually make it work.
