“Chinese TV stations have been blurring out Western brand logos in their programmes, in a show of support for China's Xinjiang cotton campaign.” bbc.co.uk/news/world-asi…
Chinese censors blurred Western brand logos on over 50 t-shirts in this footage.
CCP's relentless censorship leads to some amusing effects: "Episodes of popular variety shows such as Sisters Who Make Waves now feature singers and actors who look like they are floating on clouds, thanks to their blurred out shoes."
This reminds me a bit of the book "The Commissar Vanishes." David King demonstratd just how insane the leadershp structure & history of USSR was.He compiled photos,most of them consisting of pairs or sets of pre-& post-doctored,showing how Stalin attemptd to erase his past rivals
For the last several minutes I have been trying to add to this thread but I keep getting this message. Has this happened to anyone before?
In Chinese version of "The Brand Vanishes" companies which chose not to source cotton from forced labor in Xinjiang are digitally erased and de-platformed.
Censors appear to get a break in this pic w/ only 2 dancers wearing blurred shoes.
