Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

this guy must have pissed off the CCP somehow, so they're going after him on social media.. people aren't organically complaining about this.. this is definitely a government driven campaign against this guy.. the complaints are just ludicrous, and specifically aimed at inflaming old tensions between the US and China.. seriously, bringing up the death of some dipshit son of Mao during the Korean War on social media? nobody really gives a fuck about that idiot kid..

the CCP are just extorting money from this guy and this is how they go about it

This reeks of normal human stupidity.

nobody gives a shit about Mao's idiot son who Mao sent out to die in the mud in Korea, just to get rid of him.. nobody in China gives a shit about that, and nobody believes he was defending them against anything..

YouTube is banned in China, so anyone posting to it regularly from behind the great firewall is likely doing it with CCP approval in the first place. All of these channels are subtle propaganda in the "approved cultural exports" sense.
