A photograph of two Chinese athletes hugging after a race has been censored on Chinese social media because the women’s race numbers inadvertently formed a reference to the Tiananmen Square massacre in 1989.
How fragile is their regime if it is threatened by race numbers?
How desperately will the western media scrape the barrel to find something/anything to criticise China for.
This type of censorship seems like a pretty valid thing to criticize even though it’s pretty minor.
Lol, the Asian Games have been a roaring success in Hangzhou for nearly two weeks. From a spectacular opening ceremony to the joy of the athletes competing in an open and friendly environment, it been studiously ignored by the so-called global media yet they wallow in this like pigs in shit.
You all love to call anyone who is vaguely pro China (or anywhere else US/Nato doesn’t like) shills but the whole of western corporate media are nothing less.

Have fun with the video then downvote me like the free person that you are.
“Sports games are successful therefore don’t care about the censorship” is not the sound argument you think it is.
Anything that could possibly show China in a potentially positive light is routinely ignored. That is censorship.
I see. So one kind of censorship is bad and another kind of censorship is good. How do I tell when it’s the good kind of censorship?
I didn’t say censorship was good, I said western media will pick up any shit it can find in order to bash China while ignoring anything positive that might come from there. It’s not just China, they do the same for everywhere that US/Nato doesn’t like. A small handful of corporations controlling everything you know about the world.
