"China is the future, do you agree?"

But the commentors above said that the Chinese govt is censoring Winnie the Pooh. This image has Pooh and also another character from the same series.

So the commentor is wrong and there is no active censorship?
Or they're partly correct where only some Pooh gets actively censored?

I’m sorry, but you’ve been arguing with me! I already shared the wiki. As far as I know it’s not racism, it’s exuberant Chinese censorship. This whole post is Chinese propaganda and they’re astroturfing it.

no, infact i think there should not be any china in the future

Arguing?

What year do you think it is?

[braininabox@lemmy.ml]

So when you said "that kinda thing never works for long" you were referencing to any state? I think history has proven you wrong on that one, champ.

[olgaabi@lemmy.ml]

just look at rome, or any other empire for that matter, didn't last for ever, I was talking about the history of humanity, not a few lifetimes

[themurphy@lemmy.ml]

I was confusing the actual war with a later protest against China because of Tibet, happening maybe 10 years ago.

My mistake.

[braininabox@lemmy.ml]

Rome wasn't a state, and it lasted for many centuries. Don't try to pretend by "doesn't work for long" you were talking about geological time or something

So you're a capitalist who doesn't understand what states are for

It started as a picture with Obama as Tigger and Xi as Pooh, together, then Shinzo Abe as Eeyore and Xi as Pooh again. Then, westerners loved the Pooh imagery and used it a ton, still do. It was always based on appearance from the origin, not becayse Pooh is an idiot or anything, that's just not true. Moreover, now you can see non-Chinese people making caricatures of Xi that are without a doubt racist using the Pooh thing as justification.

I don't know why you're getting so mad either.
