    This is not the current CCP, but China has the award for the most stupid censorship of all time.

    Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland was banned in the province of Hunan, China by the KMT’s government, beginning in 1931, due to its portrayal of anthropomorphized animals which act with the same level of complexity as human beings. The censor General Ho Chien believed that attributing human language to animals was an insult to humans. He feared that the book would teach children to believe that humans and animals were on the same level, a result which would be “disastrous.”
