Are mentions of Winnie the Pooh still forbidden tho?

Maybe online.

I mean, its not really like illegal, its more of, every platform would censor comparisons of Xi Jingping and Winnie the Pooh. Just the Winnie the Pooh isn't even censored, only comparisons to Xi Jingping are censored.

Just don't bring a poster of the comparison of Xi and Pooh in public and it's probably fine. You can probably be safe making jokes with friends/family in private spaces, but don't be criticizing the government in a restaurant, in case people overhear it, especially not criticisms of the central government in Beijing or Xi Jingping.
