First off the whole narrative about Winnie the Pooh being banned is asinine, and you lot just use it as thinly-veiled excuse to tint your enemies nonwhite colors. Where it came from originally is immaterial
No. One movie didn’t receive screening approval. China limits import for screening of foreign films to 34 a year. I’m not talking Hollywood films, I’m talking all foreign films. The Christoper Robin movie in 2018 didn’t make the cut after it had a disappointing box office and critical reception in Western markets. The IP still remains popular in China because Winnie’s cute.
Yes. The memes associating President Xi with Winnie are banned. You won’t find them on Weibo, for example, where they’ll be likely taken down. Weibo strictly monitors political discourse online and routinely removes content that is aggressively polarising, especially around major political events like the Two Sessions. This is partially at the behest of the government and partially a responsibility towards its userbase.
Some provocative political content is monitored and censored, and we’ve always known that, however, Winnie is not, as you originally said. This is a bald faced orientalist lie and it shows how hollow it is, seeing how quickly you had to abandon it in the face of readily available English language evidence.
oh man limiting foreign media in your country, that totally isn’t censorship or propaganda! definitely not!

Great! Glad we came to the conclusion that China is authoritarian. just you wait, any minute now the US will ban memes about its government… annnny minute now. yep…
“Trade quotas are only evil when non-western countries use them”
“Online moderation of politically divisive and inflammatory material is only authoritarian when non-western countries do it”
I’m sure you were in tears when Jan 6 destroyed American democracy and cheering when the HK parliament was stormed by the same reactionary elements. Head-ass shitlib.
No, it really doesn’t.
I can’t wait until either you defederate us or we defederate you
