@@kibokiseki8143 granted, Americans committed many many more war crimes than the Chinese. America and many Americans can be pretty disgusting - an American citizen.
If I turn on the TV, and a bunch of people are making fun of me and my family, then I shut off the program and not allowing it to annoy me or wasting my time - I just ‘banned’ the show. I suppose that is because I am a dictator and I am weak and my feelings are too weak because what has been portrayed of me is the truth. Hypocrite.
Winnie the pooh was never a meant to be a imitation of Xi, he himself and the citizens thought so. Of course you can switch off your own TV. But when you try to switch off my TV, that's where the problem comes.
I remember someone saying years ago that attacking Matt and Trey/South Park is like wrestling a pig. You get all tired and muddy while the pig just has a great time.
Hey man, no leader of big and super important nations should ever be criticised! If Americans would all just shut up and let the unmatched wisdom of our dear leader control everything we would be so tired of winning.
Ummm that's how dictatorships are...they censor anything that mocks the leader or country or anything they disapprove of and it's been happening for years. Most of the Chinese people dont even know Tiananmen square massacre cuz they censor that information
I gave you a 'thumbs up' impulsively! I have to say, that even the otherwise strong, often can't handle being mocked or corrected, preached to or taught, rebelled against or defied. It is true tho that the strong (in many aspects 'strong') can be weak, especially egotistically and narcisstically weak. The two traits are often their downfall. [edit] I forgot to mention arrogance and blatant hypocrisy.
@@b-17flyingfortress42 I dont think so the man is dying and so are millions of his acts that are really there only to mock, but the greatest mocking show doesnt do it....hmm
I couldn’t agree more. Huge respect to Matt and Trey for sticking to their guns as they always do. Also I was shocked to find that South Park wasn’t already banned in China due to them being the show that doesn’t sell out because they want to make more money in foreign lands.
@Dongqi Zou you aren't allowed to say anything negative about the CCP, if you do you will be arrested for "challenging national sovereignty and social stability"
@Dongqi Zou I make it a point to research any topic before i decide to comment on it, that means reading information from both sides of the argument, something you unfortunately do not have the legal right to do. there is no "perfect" social system and all media is biased to some side. However there are ones worse than others and china is one of the worst when it comes to media bias and inequality, your only political party is the same one that caused the largest loss of human life at any point in human history (not even 100 years ago!), and you still revere the monster that did it. no one would choose to be ruled over by the regime you are being governed by, thats why hong kong is doing this and why no one is immigrating to your country
You'll just get the same routine as we've seen thousands of times. Redirect blame and deny. No we didnt! look what they did though!!. I see it as a collective pathological delusion. Its basically a form of repressed brainwashing and avoidance of responsibility.
@@chrisgould101 Are you talking about China? Because yeah, you will never get a genuine apology from them either and they do way more damage than South Park.
I am sure they don't feel threatened. It's just another small effort at information control within their borders. The South Park guys' response is funny... But let's not get carried away with how much we think the CCP really cares. Be realistic
Sam King yeah that’s the only and most easy thing to say to avoid the conversation. Other counties/languages artwork also doesn’t make it to the hot stream on the media like English, so nothing to do with censoring... so don’t use that excuse
The thing about South Park, is it has NO loyalties. It makes for the BEST comedy, because it has EVERY resource available to make a joke/story. Nothing else like it.
If only they would challenge Islam in a similar fashion... maybe not the recognition or money or direct threat to their own lives.... who could tell...
@@physchir You keep saying this. Do you not know of South Park season 10, episodes 3 and 4, and season 14, episodes 5 and 6, where they did indeed criticize the evil insanity that is Islam and had their lives threatened because of it? So what is your point? Do you want every episode to be about Islam?
When a country is too scared to admit its wrongdoings and shuts up anyone criticising the government. How hilarious. I am Chinese and I totally disapprove of such censorship.

China bans all kinds of content from the West. They're afraid that their people might think for themsevles if they are exposed to free information, and allowed to openly discuss and debate that free information. This is why they are, despite all their cultural and national abilities, much weaker than the West, and in particular, much more weaker than the United States. America has its problems, but the law and tradition of the free exchange of ideas is a great advantage over not only China, but Russia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and even India!
@@lavendereucalyptus3225 funny how you think china has "respect" when it constantly detained millions of uyghurs while replacing them with han chinese. Sounds more like facism than respect.
@@CornCarson Who's this guy to the earth... made me checked out my history book again and found no political assassination tradition in China rather than in the great USA...btw the Terraist Church prefer to solve issues like this way in the Legend of the Galactic Heroes and that's why they always failed.
Uhhhhhh, because this is the CCP media apparatus, not a free press.... LOL Point is... they have no interest in painting the CCP as the tyrannical regime they are.
People forget that these is the same guys who were furious when Comedy Central refused to let them air an episode depicting the prophet Muhammad because they were afraid of Islamic extremists. So instead, Matt and Trey wrote an episode with Jesus pooping all over everyone. Is it in poor taste? Yes. But did they make their point? Also yes. These guys aren’t scared of anyone. While I don’t always like their stuff, you have to respect it.
@@BlancOwly I don't think that's what they meant; wave your brain and your bachelors degree in whatever elsewhere if all your going to do is Gripe and yell like Mr. Burn's Mother. SIMPSONS REF. FOLKS!
May these two comedians continue to do more for the rest of us than any politician, celebrity or movement combined. I would say scientist's; but they've actually given us some sweet stuff.... like Electric Cars, cellphones, the internet with computers, pills and such... No pills from South Park yet! PILL'S HERE!
Since season one Matt and Trey were some of the very few creators that completely stuck by their art and apathetic or directly opposed to pandering to those with influence and power. One of my favorite things they did was when they just started, and this is when they would need all the endorsements and influence they could buy as South Park's future wasn't a given, was to put celebrity guests as non speaking roles or playing animals (like George Clooney plays a regular dog who only barks on an episode). And according to them it wasn't to give into the execs or the actor's desires but because they thought it be really funny to have a big name on the episode even though they were essentially doing nothing and unrecognizable, as a parody of guest stars appearing on shows. Even classic shows like The Simpsons, which was considered counter culture, still compromised for outside influence and added guest stars (though they did well to make unique characters for them instead of just boot licking like they do now) or concepts if pushed enough by those with power to make the execs happy. Thankfully South Park is still great now because it'll be a sad day when the show ends and there's no one with that level of influence and cultural reach who is willing to laugh in the face of authority and stand by what they say. I'm sure they celebrated their ban in China as a an achievement.
@@papercat2599 Those people had the right to call the others fools. Just because you don't like a a joke or criticism that a country made, doesn't mean you have to censor it. It just makes the Chinese Government look bad.
@Leopard Man it's because they're sheep and like to trow tantrums when you don't want to get sheared. but hated is a strong word, I don't think the world hated them
Gotta love SP and Trey and Matt. They make fun of everybody and everything, and that's why SP is such a great show! And it's also First Amendment all the way! (Well, 'almost' all the way, but only because Comedy Central wouldn't let SP show an image of the, "Prophet" Muhammed.)
@@travelleryu Love how the US gets so much "attention" on that concept... We're mere amateurs compared to some on your list there... Let's keep it real, mmm?
Depends on what generation you are talking about. I don't see liberals, antifascits and democrats speaking for HK freedom. If you are talking about people who really care about freedom and individuals rights, then I agree with you.
@@andrecorreiaruuda not true, many are. But I guess if u dont see it often its becuase they're isn't much to discuss considering most people know what side theyre on. I've only met a few liberals who don't side with hk, and half of those ppl stayed in China for a year.
Yes! Evil CCP gangsters forced organs harvesters murderers to the millions falun dafa, uighurs, Tibetans for a profit! Hang these gangsters for crimes against humanity!
China purchased around $1 billion worth of American sorghum per year until April 2018 when China imposed retaliatory duties on American sorghum as part of the trade war between the two countries.
@anonghost or a powerful tool when freedom of speech means the richest get to speak the loudest, and silence opposing voices. It sadly works both ways, just look wt China's investments into western media 😒
The most obvious and direct sign that a communist country suppresses freedom and the issues that brings, is in their product replication . By only copying technology it leaves no room for true improvement . Where creativity is diminshed then the quality of products and people will suffer. It's essential for growth and improvement. Development of new innovations can only be facilitated where creativity thrives and is accepted. Creativity intimidated the communists as it leaves doors open to new narratives and ideas. So the idea was to copy all technologies and products from the already creative. As a creative analytic ,I notice a distinct lack of or seriously hindered sense of what creativity even is amongst them I've worked with and dealt with. It's a very linear experience. In retrospect, it had also limited the potential profits I could have created because my creativity was limited confided to certain limitations within the company. It would be the death of a true artist to try exist in such a place. They don't like creativity because ultimately it can lead to new ideas and thinking outside the way of communist thought
It's a back hand compliment. He's saying Americans are hypocrits and find creative ways to justify their hypocrisy. Like groveling at the feet of a communist country yet being pro democracy.
No. They banned him for using their tournament as a platform to push his political views, which was against the rules of the tournament. Pretty sure they would have done the same thing if pushed his views on MAGA or Brexit.
It´s an anime episode and the episode is accusing the Chinese government of putting profit before principle. Using Weibo today, I was not able to detect the presence of censorship on it´s platform against South Park.
@@denrimi but whos to say the first thing they took control of was not the media? China are masters of propaganda, it wouldn't surpise me if it was their go to when taking control.
@@issa6892 yea if u can get around the censorship in china ALOT of people (that aren't troll's) watch/read western websites by going around the blockage in china to see what the world says about china etc.
It is no longer just access to the Chinese market that keeps Hollywood productions in line. China now financially backs many big-budget Hollywood films. Those deals stipulate that the studios are contractually obligated to allow the financial backers to make editorial changes to the script. Anything that paints China in a negative light, or Taiwan/Japan/South Korea in a positive light, or just generally disagrees with censorship or other hot topics China does like, are written out.
*Hong Kongese and yeah we do, protesters keep fighting because they had a taste of freedom from Britain and now cannot go back to the CPC way. Sad when you think about Taiwan, because Taiwan is what China would have been like if not for the communist takeover.
Tommy Guan just to be clear, are you actually peddling pro-imperial nonsense? If the majority of the people in a country wants independence from one nation or another, it’s their right to have that.
I didn't know this happened but it's about time somebody in showbiz put their foot down. I hate that Hollywood bends over for China. Now I love South Park even more. 👍
The best part of this, is that they ban and censor this too - as portrayed in the episode. Guess Southpark's portrayal of Chinese censorship is pretty accurate eh?
@Derius Li They do, not only that people in US talk about it pretty frequently and argue with each other over it. And no one gets sent to a "rehabilitation camp" for it either.
I am Chinese, your team did a great job! I hope more and more people in different country will realize CCP's dictation. Fight to China is global mission.
My uncle's colleague was having a vacation in China when he almost got arrested for being "rich" and bringing a Cadbury bar. I don't know why it happened to him. Greetings from the Philippines by the way☺
Young Park they have standards and don’t sell out. People used to call out artists that would sell out but these days the msm actually actively tries to get artists to sell out and fall in line
@@jame5game5 you need not look very hard to find brainwashing everywhere nowadays from Hollywood to academia to all mainstream media and beyond. People like South Park because it‘a one of the few contents left that hasn’t submitted to the left.
