How would you answer this, and how would you expect Chinese netizens on Xiaohongshu to answer?

I will link to the thread in the comments because I want you to take a moment and think about it first.

      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?

      Conflicting info now

        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.

          wiki

          From the wiki:

          Comparisons between the cartoon character and Xi Jinping date back to 2013, when the Chinese leader visited Barack Obama in the United States. An image of the two leaders walking was immediately compared to that of the bear and his friend Tigger.

          A meme with Chinese president as Yellow Winnie + American president(of Kenyan/African descent) as Brown Tigger does have racist connotations, right?

          Wouldn’t ignoring that be similar to those who say that ‘The woke left is trying to censor Musk because he raised his hand in joy’ and that that it is against freedom of expression and authoritarian?

          And arguing?

          This whole post is Chinese propaganda and they’re astroturfing it.

          And would your comment and similar comments be termed as anti-Chinese propaganda and astroturfing?
