That's hilarious.
On a tangent, China aims to be a moviemaking powerhouse by 2035[1]. They want to have independence from Hollywood and foreign media influence on their culture. It's not just Hollywood they want to wean themselves from, but (South) Korean programming, among others, as well with their 'ban' on "effeminate men"[2] [1] https://www.chinadaily.com.cn/a/202112/15/WS61b9520aa310cdd3...

I know the ad is generated by an automated system. But it’s hypocritical that a news site would make claims of righteousness while engaging in very similar sexualization of women.
Assuming this is true, that is not only tasteless, some would say evil (I don't really believe in evil, though), but above all: it's out of touch. Doesn't seem like good business, there's so much middle ground between cheap sex appeal and woke reboots. I don't see how this could be a reasonable response to the latter. The article itself isn't exactly seeping with tangible details and sources, though. I don't think th…
I wouldn’t quote this YouTuber for everything, but he was born in South Africa and was a teenager when the country was still under apartheid: if he was horrified by the blatant racism when he was in China, I can’t imagine it was light or rare. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtVozQG2Q-4 I’m not really surprised. And I’m scared that might be good business _in China_; whether the effort to go against that trend will pa…

Knew it was a serpentza link before I clicked on it. You can make your own conclusions but I don't really see him as anything more than a clickbaiter. He lives in the US now and has said that the US is the only society without true racism, if you want to get a sense of his biases. https://www.reddit.com/r/Expatshame/comments/nlxlxs/serpentz...
