I think they are just very much against chinese ppl themselves getting religious. In terms of ‘choking’, I’m assuming you mean privacy and freedom of speech wise, yes it’s pretty bad. Anything I expressed online had to be done through a VPN, as to not get into any trouble. Talking shit about the gov is a big fat no in wechat (chinese whatsapp) groups as my mother’s friend has been so called ‘invented to tea at the police station’ for BEING in the same group chat as someone who did that.

I'm pretty sure the "talking animal ban" is complete bs.

Zootopia was officially released in Chinese theaters as well. It's pretty clear to me that there is no ban on talking animals in Chinese media, and I'm not sure where that myth came from.

I lived in China from 2010 to 2016, lived in Guangzhou for one year, Shanghai for 5, and traveled all over the country. As a foreigner living there, I only felt I was living in an authoritarian state when I used the internet. People in society are out and about, unafraid, dining, partying, having fun, shopping shopping shopping... it's capitalism on steroids. When I tried to talk to Chinese people about the government, they never seemed afraid to talk, it just didn't interest them. They reminded me of American teenagers-- talking about friends, dating, their social media, pop culture, but no interest in politics. I met people who had lived abroad, and while there, they never bothered to learn about the Tiananmen Square Massacre. It's like they didn't want to know because the truth would be ugly. And they are believers in Tibet and Taiwan being a part of China. They tow the line whole-heartedly. I loved my China experience, but the internet really was a nightmare. Even unblocked websites would take forever to load. I'd have to click "play" on a 10 minute video and wait 30 minutes for it to load so that it would play with only a few interruptions. Every so often, my VPN would stop working. This especially happened during sensitive anniversaries and when there'd be an international summit. I never knew when I'd be able to use fast and uncensored internet. When I'd visit Hong Kong or Taiwan, it was heavenly. It was like... China with fast, uncensored internet. I literally went to Hong Kong once just for a vacation from the firewall. And yes, WeChat.... it was so weird when I moved back to the USA and WeChat was no longer necessary. That app is EVERYTHING in China. You can't function without it. Digital life in the USA suddenly seemed so complicated, having to use so many apps to do different things, when in China, I only needed one. Americans don't even know what WeChat is. That is still bizarre for me.

我就是用VPN来到KZbin的中国人，这个视频很客观，讲述的也是事实，放在二十年前，可能有大部分中国人不了解外国，因为当时的科技导致大部分人连互联网都不会用，也导致了他们对国外的了解只能来源于国内媒体，这也导致了他们认为中国一定比外国好。but，现在科技已经很发达了（相比起之前），大多数的中国年轻人都会使用互联网，也有一部分的年轻人出国旅行或留学，都清晰了国外的样子，大家已经不会被政府利用政治手段“欺骗”了。但是也会有一部分人被政治洗脑，以至于仍然对国外的认识不清晰。我们国家政府对人民是做了实事的，限制去外网也是因为有个国家的总统说，要利用媒体舆论来扰乱民心，中国有能力出国的人也没有很多，所以为了应对他国利用媒体的政治战略，不得以的只能用VPN浏览外网了，让那些有能力出国的年轻人去用心体会国外环境。不过即使禁止浏览外网，但是VPN的盛行还是导致一些国外间谍会通过VPN伪装成中国人，在网络上发表一些言论来扰乱民心。走一步看一步，有压迫就有反抗，反抗还没来之前，就先别猜想有压迫。如果真的存在压迫，中国年轻人会站出来的。 （baidu translator） I am the Chinese person who came to KZbin using VPN. This video is very objective and tells the truth. Twenty years ago, most Chinese people may not be familiar with foreign countries because technology at that time made most people not even know how to use the Internet, which also led to their understanding of foreign countries only coming from domestic media. This also led them to believe that China must be better than foreign countries. But now technology has become very advanced (compared to before), and most young people in China use the Internet. There are also some young people who travel or study abroad, and they have a clear understanding of what it looks like abroad. People will no longer be deceived by the government's political means. But there will also be some people who are brainwashed by politics, to the extent that their understanding of foreign countries is still unclear. Our government has done practical things for the people, and restricting access to the internet is also because one country's president said that we should use media and public opinion to disrupt people's hearts. There are not many people in China who have the ability to go abroad, so in order to cope with the political strategy of other countries using media, we can only use VPN to browse the internet and let young people who have the ability to go abroad experience the foreign environment with heart. However, even though browsing the internet is prohibited, the prevalence of VPN still leads to some foreign spies disguising themselves as Chinese through VPN and making comments online to disrupt public opinion. Take a step and see, where there is oppression, there is resistance. Before resistance comes, don't assume there is oppression. If there is really oppression, Chinese young people will stand up.

I had a chance to talk to a TV producer from Japan a few years back. Because of the fact that TV is slowly dying as an entertainment in a traditional sense, one of the ways producing companies in Japan, and I would guess other (East) Asian countries, earn money is by selling IP's and rights to Chinese production companies which then create their own versions of films and series. Guess that's a way of making sure not much foreign stuff comes in.

I am the Chinese person who came to KZbin using VPN. This video is very objective and tells the truth. Twenty years ago, most Chinese people may not be familiar with foreign countries because technology at that time made most people not even know how to use the Internet, which also led to their understanding of foreign countries only coming from domestic media. This also led them to believe that China must be better than foreign countries. But now technology has become very advanced (compared to before), and most young people in China use the Internet. There are also some young people who travel or study abroad, and they have a clear understanding of what it looks like abroad. People will no longer be deceived by the government's political means. But there will also be some people who are brainwashed by politics, to the extent that their understanding of foreign countries is still unclear. Our government has done practical things for the people, and restricting access to the internet is also because one country's president said that we should use media and public opinion to disrupt people's hearts. There are not many people in China who have the ability to go abroad, so in order to cope with the political strategy of other countries using media, we can only use VPN to browse the internet and let young people who have the ability to go abroad experience the foreign environment with heart. However, even though browsing the internet is prohibited, the prevalence of VPN still leads to some foreign spies disguising themselves as Chinese through VPN and making comments online to disrupt public opinion. Take a step and see, where there is oppression, there is resistance. Before resistance comes, don't assume there is oppression. If there is really oppression, Chinese young people will stand up.

Technically correct is the best kind of correct. Just like the Chinese language, Chinese legislation does not operate based on rules but base on context. The goal of Chinese legislation is not to provide a guideline of operation but to provide a guideline on the desired outcome. Hence many Chinese laws and rules only state the desired result but not the process which to achieve said result or the situation in which the rule is applied. Which is the reason why there is much inconsistency in the examples provided in the video. The video provided a relatively accurate and comprehensive (compare to other videos of similar topic on KZbin) description of the process but only briefly touched on the result of the desired process, and the relevant context which produced such process.

The Tienanmen Square event in China is taught as when the Falun gong cult started an insurrection. You can argue whether or not the Falun gong are the lesser evil, however, labeling the Tienanmen Square event as an outright massacre on innocent students is a bit disingenuous given the massive effort by Western intelligence agencies involvement during the day. Go watch the full uncut video of the Tank Man, he walked away fine here in the States he would have been shot for even approaching law enforcement, or go read BBC's original account of the events and you'll notice the BBC reporters stating the difficulties the Chinese military had as they were constantly being surrounded due to the lack of arms available for them.

Because the entirety of wikipedia as a website itself is blocked in China. Another claim that is very wrong is that China doesn't have a social credit system. Yes it absolutely has it. It just hasn't been rolled out in all of China and only about 40% of the Chinese population (Still more than a half billion people) live under some level of the social credit system. It's been active in all big first tier cities and while the rule and point system is different based on local government tuning it's usually a system where everyone scores a 1000 points that can go up to 1400 for good behavior and down to 600 points for bad behavior.

Every country has an internet of their own inside, especially non english speaking ones (english ones are hard to distinguish), the memes are very different and you can see their culture which is a great way to learn their language for context. The firewall separating every country's internet to each other is the language itself, while translators are much better, what it can't translate is context, to know context you need culture. I don't agree with how China is doing the firewall, for me it just separates everyone to Chinese people which fosters ignorance and hate, in my entire life I can count in my fingers real Chinese people living in China that I've talked to. The firewall is ineffective too which makes me wonder why it exist even now, because of VPN, they know you use VPN but they don't know what you use it for, only people who use it are those that can speak English or understand other language which is not a lot. It just seem political to me, both west and china are not really enemies back then (if you exclude the Qing dynasty and the Korean war), USSR and China wasn't the best allies back then, China supported the Mujahideen (seriously look it up, was surprised by it, the Afghan government played a part of it but to support your ally's enemy is definitely betrayal imo). Back to what I was talking about, if you ask any westerner or Chinese if they hate each other (people not government) you will get mixed response due to the fact that both sides has no interaction on a scale to understand each other, their information came from news sites and hearsays from other people, if they say they hate them just ask why and they won't be able to give a reasonable answer. Internet can bring everyone together, that's why I support unregulated use of it, while it can be used by criminals, that's just the downside of it, the upside overwhelms it by a lot, you don't stop something because criminals can use it, you don't stop selling knives because it can be used to stab someone, you can't stop crime without getting to the root of it (it mostly roots down to money and greed).

Did you know in the Chinese release of Yakuza 0 there is a Chinese assassin who is quite scary and wrinkly but it fits his character and makes his presence more impactful. But in China they make him look like a normal chinese dude and he is voice by a Chinese actor who they based the appearance off. The name of the character is Lao gui

@@wulaboombeach5004 this just makes it worse imo, them looking scary is meant to be a sign that they're scary. By taking away that for one specific race you end up unintentionally making it seem like that race is supposed to be scary by default.

I've been living in China for nearlly ten years now, and I've never heard about the ban on talking animals. That's kind of stupid because one of their most revered mythological beings, Sun WuKong (孙悟空), is a monkey that talks. The Kung Fu Panda franchise is hugely successful and it's nothing but talking animals. SpongeBob and Paw Patrol are popular with Chinese children, and talking animals isn't warping their minds or anything. It would be a bit hypocritical if they really did enforce the ban.

[@foschiera.9613]

These people don't think straight, they're so used to anti-East american/imperialist propaganda that they'll believe anything you tell them, China bad.

[@hanyangzhu]

Maybe it‘s just a wrong interpretation of the saying "Animal are not allowed to become spirits after the Founding of China"(建国之后不许成精）which is a nothing more than a half-meme in China...I wonder how this phrase came to become "a ban on talking animals".

You have to remember when it comes to our country that we are heavily sanctioned, and our only airline is banned from EU airspace. So we don't have many options. And there are three passport types: regular passport - given to citizens traveling abroad for sports and business trips; only given with special permission official passport - given to trade and other economic bureaucrats diplomatic passport - for top officials of the Workers' Party of Korea both official and diplomatic passports have to be returned to the passport office, and if they want to make another trip, they come retrieve it.

The social credit system IS being used, just not nation-wide and only in a few major cities

[@simplyimmature8016]

The social credit scoring is being used in china but not throughout. Cities and communities use their own scoring system while the main social credit system is for businesses and private parties. Which are indeed being watched over by the government and encouraged by it, in the hopes that they can adopt this later. Its all link to citizens with link id’s and so forth.

The statement about China's inner-net ecosystem is very accurate. A number of Chinese students I met in college still use Chinese web service (baidu, bilibili, weibo, etc.) even they are physically on the other side of the planet. These Chinese web services don't really help if you are searching for non-Chinese stuff, and the average ping flows between 200~999ms thanks to the school's internet while Google's ping is always below 20ms. In rare cases the Chinese web services get blocked by the school because of reasons, and some Chinese students use the same techniques to get around their GFW to bypass the school's firewall so they can watch anime on bilibili.
