Apparently, bringing up China being authoritarian is now “bigotry”. Makes sense now all those comments from .ml users that most people banned from .ml are for bigotry.
“Bigotry” = Anything negative about China or Russia now

What’s the ‘whinnie the pooh thing’?
It became a meme to depict Xi Jinping as Winnie the Pooh, and China / Xi’s response was to completely ban all depictions or mentions of Winnie the Pooh.

There are many, many other words and phrases that just get scrubbed from any online post… these are called ‘Sensitive Words’.
Oh bother.
Chinese meme where they compared him to Winni, he cracked down it, the west loved it and adopted it too.
Tankies try to say it’s racist as if it represents all Asians and not just Xi personally, and it originated from China, so it’s doubly not about his ethnicity.
At some point Xi got associated with Winnie the Pooh and imagery of it (usually of Winnie’s face being “morphed” into Xi’s face) became censored/banned in China
Because he looks a lot like Winnie the Pooh. The shape of his face and body, his gait, his smile, it’s really uncanny.
I once saw a comment on Hexbear about it being racist to call Xi Winnie the Pooh. I got confused and asked why would that be racist. I got laughed at for not seeing that he’s clearly called that because Pooh is yellow, which is also a derogatory term for asians. And this never even crossed my mind until then, I always assumed he’s called that cause he literally looks like Pooh and wears red (figuratively). Are they reaching or am I wrong?
More than just reaching, they’re witch hunting.
See, a lot of muppets have that nasty tendency to point to random people or things, and claim that they’re from a despicable group: racists, transphobes, paedophiles, so goes on (“the witches”).
And those muppets do this through insane troll logic, zero due diligence, making shit up = assuming on the spot, Chewbacca defence, dogpiling, distorting what you said, so goes on. (And if you correctly highlight that there are no witches there, they’ll start screeching “WHY ARE YOU DEFENDING WITCHES?”)
That’s on the whole internet, mind you. And even offline. But for some reason, it’s really common among Hexbear users. And this Xi = Pooh meme is a prime example of that; they want to point people using this meme and scream “WAAAH, YOU’RE RACIST!”, even if the bloody meme was created by Chinese people, and the criticism is not really related to race. Later they scream “DONE, WE DID IT
REDDITHEXBEAR, WE DEFEATED RACISM! EDIT WOW THANKS FOR THEGOLDPIG POOP BALLS, KIND STRANGER!”I’m fairly certain that they’re full of GoOd InTeNtIoNs when they do this. And they should be paving Hell with those intentions because they’re making things worse for every bloody body, except the witches - that now got a believable cover: “nooo, I’m no witch, they’re just reaching. BTW let’s fly on a broom together.”

Long comments*.
Happy 🍰 day.
Thanks!
Obama is not orange or striped. It makes no sense
I wouldn’t have put that together, either. Winnie the Pooh is yellowish brown.
proper nomenclature when referring to the dear leader is shepooh, thanks.
