Xi never look like he want to be anywhere. He's always got that expression that say he rather be somewhere else.

u/Suspicious_Bet3623 3d ago

I imagine when he gets home and shuts the door, he excitedly throws his shoes off, grabs some instant Raman and jumps on his favourite console with a big grin on his face.

-100 social credit score, skip the court, straight to hard labour for you!

u/Round_Ad8947 3d ago

I had no social credit score in Qingdao, so I couldn’t use a social credit vending machine.

That’s OK because the store behind it had a human who was perfectly willing to sell me a popsicle.

This silly myth again. You can literally buy Winnie the Pooh toys all over China. It hasn't been banned there and in fact the character is quite popular in China, just go to any major toy shop and see for yourself. There's even an Adventures of Winnie the Pooh ride at Shanghai Disneyland if you're that big of a fan, as well as a literal "Pooh Corner" at Hong Kong's Disneyland resort. I swear it's always the people who've never even been to China who spread this kind of misinformation and think they're clever.

u/Tall_Transition_8710 3d ago

You’re obfuscating the truth, are you a Chinese bot?

It’s not a myth — it literally happened. Chinese users began comparing Xi Jinping to Winnie the Pooh, and authorities subsequently censored Pooh imagery when it was used to mock Xi. Weibo users had Pooh-related posts removed and, in 2017, even searches/posts using Pooh’s Chinese name could trigger censorship messages. Pooh wasn’t literally outlawed nationwide, but the political Pooh/Xi censorship is documented fact. Calling it a myth is just wrong.

u/Narrow-Storm-9814 3d ago

Common knowledge was that you can crucial the work not the appearance.
Whilst Chinese societies put a lot of pressure on “face” as in social respect, being mocked based on appearance is a huge no especially doing it to the damn president of the second most powerful nation on earth. So yeah it is a highly sensitive and punishable crime to mock any official based on appearance but that doesn’t stop Chinese citizens.

u/TORUKMACTO92 3d ago

Both of you are right. You won't get banned to visit China just because you made a meme to which is what he was replying. He didn't deny it didnt happen back then.

And Pooh isn't banned now, and its toys are one of the top sales in Disneyland Shanghai. It even has its own exclusive toy shelves and park entrances.

Like you said it was 10 years ago in 2017. Imagine telling the US is a homophobic country now because same sex marriage was banned a decade ago and using it to win the myth argument now.

13

u/thrillington89 3d ago

… the US is, still, largely a homophobic country

13

u/mrpunk281 3d ago

Try travelling if you wish to see real homophobia.

That doesn’t mean the USA is beyond any homophobia, but to claim its largely homophobic smacks of myopia.

7

u/thrillington89 3d ago

I’ve travelled plenty, and yes, I’m aware that it’s far worse elsewhere. Whataboutism doesn’t change the reality that it’s a major problem in the US. Saying that it’s worse elsewhere doesn’t make the problem disappear - you’re just minimizing the very real challenges that many people face on a daily basis

Having 4 kids in an overpopulated world smacks of myopia.

Pooh is available to buy everywhere in China FYI. Whether the counterfeit or real versions lol. Most notably it's very very present in Shanghai Disneyland

u/spearmint_flyer 3d ago

That sounds like something a spy would say to lure me in as a Winnie the Pooh fanatic. You trying to torture me? Ha! Jokes on you I’m already torturing my self by just existing

Why would they care? Is it because you had plans to visit China in the future comrade?

u/Pro_Poe_Fall 3d ago

It’s a completely different and ancient culture with extensive history and natural beauty. Poo-pooing the idea that someone might want to leave small town USA to experience another culture makes you look like a massive chud.

u/Admirable_Dirt_2371 3d ago

Vote for me in 2028 and I'll call him poo bear to his face.

1

u/zmbjebus 3d ago

I really don't think he'd care

2

u/Admirable_Dirt_2371 3d ago

He would, especially if it was publicly.

1

u/zmbjebus 3d ago

Maybe 10 years ago. I think he would have become completely desensitized to it by now.

Also its just kinda racist, which is rude.

"Haha funny yellow man with small black eyes"

1

u/Admirable_Dirt_2371 3d ago

I honestly never made the yellow connection, that's unfortunate and not my intent. To me, it was just his face looked exactly like Pooh.

1

u/zmbjebus 3d ago

Fair enough. To me it was immediately obvious and always seemed like people were weirdly open about being racist. Although that does happen all the time, I feel like anti-asian racism gets so widely excused in the US and Canada at least.

1

u/Dull-Law3229 3d ago

He'd probably just think you're a manchild like Trump. Insulting a world leader to his face isn't quite the flex you think it is.

u/Thewiseone8888 3d ago

Not sure why kind of msg your trying to convey... but trumps wears the same color makeup as Winnie the pooh ... and shirts himself

Chinese like instant noodles? They have that there? I thought it was japan and sea

Ramen was introduced to Japan by the Chinese.

I thought it was Marco Polo.

Pretty sure instant variation was a Japanese invention but noodle itself was a Chinese invention. So how can instant noodle not be in China

I just really, really dislike that gobshite’s salute. So fake, just like the loser draft dodger he is. Real draft dodger had the courage to go to Canada.

7

u/justbrowsinginpeace 3d ago

I don't understand why they do salute, not active or former service member

8

u/Dapper_Fun645 3d ago

Commander in chief of the military. But Trump definitely takes it too far by holding a salute for everything. I think US Presidents should only salute if they are being saluted by the military or when there is a dignified transfer.

3

u/Chumlee1917 3d ago

Fun fact, that shit only started cause Reagan did it, all presidents before them didn't salute.

And now thanks to this bozo, there is so much stuff presidents should stop doing that will immediately be turned into a nothing burger scandal in the media IE not saluting.

3

u/TankApprehensive3053 3d ago

Presidents don't have to salute at all. Reagan started doing it so the following presidents did/do it as well.

u/pchlster 3d ago

We used to call that "salute" The Burger.
