Regarding this weeks issue with China, censorship South Park, Anime, Blizzard, the NBA, Vans, Disney, videogame content, and, "global beauty
standards", we were discussing this here back in June.
One thing in particular that's not getting a lot about of coverage about this censorship: The Blizzard link is to a 20 minute video has an interesting bit of background on how China's censors have been removing or white washing (literally!) black and other dark skinned characters in video games for some time.
This is a BIG deal and it deserves a lot
more attention that the flurry of attention that is likely to be over by
the end of the week.
For instance, this cancerous dynamic is actually the source of many of the
"reactionism clauses" that are popping up in the Orwellian TOS's of tech
and media companies.

A short amount of searching suggests the de facto meaning is "anything the ChiComs don't like."
