I think we now know that China has replaced the US as the global superpower.

💩

Bowing to RED CHINA!!!!! another anti american company !!!!

That is unbelievable. An America company censoring someone for expressing their opinion. Is this what we are turning into? What’s next? Book burning? Short that company!! Don’t buy their products!!

We are going backwards as a society and we dont even see it

“China is the bestest country” is the new “Hulu has live sports” Either say it or don’t get paid; corporate America has already bent the knee

It's necessary. You don't express your 2 cents in an irrelevant event. You will get banned in Olympic for sure.

This is why big tech need tighter regulations

Teach Hongkytonk a lesson. They think they're Chinese above other Chinese.. ugh !
