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.

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.
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
