Chinese President Xi Jinping Says Internet Must Be 'Clean and Righteous' (reuters.com)
The internet must be "clean and righteous" and vulgar content must be resisted in the field of culture, Chinese President Xi Jinping told a meeting of senior propaganda officials, state media said on Wednesday. From a report: The government has been tightening controls over internet content as part of what it says are efforts to maintain social stability, taking on "vulgar" and pornographic content as well as the unauthorised dissemination of news. The moves come amid a broader clamp-down targeting online content from livestreams and blogs to mobile gaming, as the country's leaders look to tighten their grip over a huge and diverse cultural scene online popular with China's youth. Speaking at a two-day meeting, attended by officials from major state media outlets and the internet regulator, Xi said propaganda efforts needed to be put front and centre, the official Xinhua news agency said. "Uphold a clean and righteous internet space," the report cited Xi as saying. China shut as many as 128,000 websites that contained obscene and other "harmful" information in 2017, Xinhua reported in January, citing government data.
Now, what's his email address?
And does anyone know a good goatse mirror?
Scary phrase, there. I knew there was a Trump liked this guy Xi.
Who knew that Winnie the Pooh was so dirty and unrighteous.
Fuck Xi Jinping, fuck him up his stupid cartoon bear ass. (we both know the internet has images of that)
Anons need not reply. Questions end with a question mark.
This from a guy whose party has sanitized the killing of tens of millions of its own people, is now ruler for life, has a social credit score to force people to behave according to the CCP's wishes, could care less about the 300 million people in abject poverty without regular access to clean water, and won't acknowledge the Tiananmen Square massacre to the point of banning the term "63+1", or 6/4.
Yeah, you can go fuck yourself Xi Jinping. We'll keep trying to show your people how the rest of the world works and hopefully they'll finish what was started in 1989.
that Tibet belongs to the Tibetans and that the Chinese project of replacing the Tibetans with Han Chinese will be reversed. And, Taiwan can now be considered an independent country of 23 million Chinese and can determine their own future with full recognition from Beijing.
Hope springs eternal...and in Xi's China, goes there to die.
Know what this fuckwad communist dictator sounds like? The Puritans. Remember them? They were at least as corrupted as anyone else, all the while pretending to pure and 'righteous'. Of course in this case it's an order of magnitude worse: this jackass includes things like 'freedom of speech', 'freedom of expression', 'criticizing the communist party', 'criticizing the government', and of course 'criticizing him' among the things he considers 'vulgar' and 'pornographic' content.
As an aside to all this: know what I think is really ironically funny about this? For a country that has recorded history going back, what, 3000 years at least? They still fail to learn from their own history. This guy has set himself up as Emperor of China for all intents and purposes. How's that worked out for you in the past, China? Do you even remember? Or has the Communist party removed your access to (or worse, rewritten) your own history, too? Sad, sad, sad. I actually feel bad for the average Chinese citizen.
Sex is righteous. Sex is how our species survives. It is the reason everyone of us exists. And so on.
Sex is not dirty. It is perfectly natural and clean. Sexual desire is not dirty. It is an instinct that our species relies on for continuance.
Pornography is not dirty. It is the most automatic expression of our sexual instincts, given the tech available. It plays its part in assisting the entire enterprise of keeping our species alive.
People who want to block pornography usually have an ulterior motive. Either they actually want to block a whole bunch of other things and are just using a widespread cultural discomfort with our own survival instincts to get the necessary approval, or they are threatened by the fact that standards of beauty actually exist and aren't always trivially easy to achieve. Or they are just under-developed and hence erroneously believe their own sexual instincts are dirty. In any case, they insist that pornography is dirty, when it is not.
bwahaha...
Left:
- universal healthcare
- environmental protections
- marijuana legal
- hate speech outlawed
- no coal plants
FAR left, is above plus
- universal income
- 50%-90% corporate tax rate
- all drugs legal
- proportional representation
- nationalized critical industries (energy, water, internet) and some too big to fail businesses or businesses in the national interest
- no more nukes, nuke plants or any polluting power plant. renewables only.
- cap higher end wages
So I very much doubt that the "mainstream" in the USA is "far left". I think you guys can barely get to the centrist position.
I know its said time and time again, but the USA version of "left" is considered center or center right by other 1st world democracies.
As a potential lottery winner, I totally support tax cuts for the wealthy
Ah, so the structures that successfully kept societies together for 2000 years "can safely be regarded as a fundamental failure"? How convenient. All religions over history combined have killed fewer people than communism, of course.
Any set of laws, without a sense of morality to guide their interpretation and enforcement, can be turned to evil. Does that make the concept of "laws" bad? Of "morality"? Or does it simply mean that humans are fallible?
There was this guy once who said that scripture is complicated, and it's easy to read it wrong, so if you think it's telling you to hurt someone, that's how you know you're reading it wrong. He got pretty famous for saying things like that, though it didn't end well for him. However, he got the last laugh, as it turns out, since you've probably heard of him.
Socialism: a lie told by totalitarians and believed by fools.
