China Wants ‘Sissy Idols’ and ‘Effeminate Men’ Scrubbed From Entertainment Industry
The Chinese government’s crackdown on the tech and entertainment sectors has now turned to “sissy idols,” “effeminate men” and all things “overly entertaining.”
The measures were sketched out in an eight-point plan on Thursday by the National Radio and Television Administration. It called for “further regulation of arts and entertainment shows and related personnel.”
Announcing the measures, the Communist Party of China’s propaganda department accused some in the entertainment industry of bad influence on the young and of “severely polluting the social atmosphere.”
One of the eight sections to one one “boycotting being overly entertaining” explained a need to put more emphasis on “traditional Chinese culture, revolution culture and socialist culture.” It said that authorities will establish a “correct beauty standard,” and boycott vulgar internet celebrities.
GRTWT.

Please send him over to Disney/Marvel. Nothing else seems to work with them lately, maybe the threat of losing a few billion dollars will strop the abuse of "cis-gendered straight white males" and anyone who even resembles one.
Looks like he's laying the groundwork for Cultural Revolution 2.0. But China is no longer a closed society and the ploy will likely backfire this time.
Imagine if the Reagan administration had tried to take MTV away from Generation X. LOL.

You know, if the Reagan administration had went into the MTV studio, rounded up all the employees, and made them permanently disappear.... and them made every reporter and protester that complained disappear ...... they could have got away with it too.
What I'm trying to say is, the Chinese government with this and many other things they do, are trying to protect their culture from outside influence, as well as protect their one party rule.
Perhaps China is not as closed as it was, but I believe a majority of the Han Chinese people support their government in theses things.
Preserving your culture seems like a foreign concept to us. Not allowing another political party to throw a wrench in government policy seems foreign to us.
But that probably says more about our conditioning than it does any flaws in Chinese society.
They're just keeping chaos at bay, whereas we invite it in.
Dont get me wrong, I'd rather live in our chaotic freedom ..... but dont assume the vast majority of Chinese feel the same way about it we do.
We accept all the effeminate bullshit the controllers of our media cram down out throat. They have shaped our values, and now they are reshaping them in accordance with their changing agenda.
Our society and political system basically doesn't have our best long term interests at heart. The Chinese government is playing the long game.
I have a hard time condemning them just because they can get away with stuff we cant.
Often I see their actions that are criticized in the western media and political / diplomatic circles, and think hey, they are doing exactly what I would do if I were them. Their actions just make much more sense than Ours do. They're just not into the self-destructive shit we are into.
