China calls for less 'effeminate' men in videogames and bans 'gay love'

The fact the CCP is garbage and restricts lives is pretty well established no?
Yes it is. Is cancel culture, saying that there are 273 genders and white supremacy is everywhere, giving pills to boys in school because they act like boys make a better society? I see that China wants to prevent the Anglo-nihilisim. Communism is bad in itself but I can get their take on this.

Also fuck that regime. I hate how businesses keep pandering to them just because of $$$. Have some backbone.

He should have some backbone and talked to his dad way earlier. It's a touchy subject with me. I can't stand weak men, gay or others.

"Holding hands" isn't normally a form of sexuality, so no. All manners of people holds each other hands for various reasons. Something like kissing on the lips is another thing though because it normally it does accentuates sexuality.
J F C on a pogostick.
 
This is what true homophobia looks like.
Will we ever see western companies stand up to this, or do they keep favoring profit over basic human rights?
Actors doing interviews in Western democracies:
I stand with the whole alphabet, I go downtown to burn black people's homes and buildings in the name of black lives etc. I'm so woke you would not believe it! I'm going to cancel someone just now!

Same actors in China:
Gay people should be put in concentration camps with the ouigurs, also man should be out hunting and killing bears with their bare hands while the ladies prepare their sandwiches!

You get profits and everyone is happy!

The hypocrisy is too much to handle.

Having 20 guys who cry often is a thousand times better than having 20 guys who get angry when someone cries or are enraged by some dude wearing a dress.

This isn't a call for less weak men it's a call for less effeminate and homosexual men. Weak men are the ones who get bothered because a guy isn't macho enough for them.

Considering how the population ballooned last time they should be happy to have a few gay dudes

Diversity is our strength. China is doomed.

To be fair, China is also doing the diversity social narrative but with their own ethnic groups within the Mainland (including Uyghurs) and also partnering countries for their Belt and Road thingy.
However they have not gone full "woke" with this narrative; it is more like they are trying to harmonize with Western multiculturalism. Meanwhile the elites in the West seem to have decided to stir some social angst by turning the diversity valve here up to 11 in order to "trigger".

They want people to have 3 kids now.

Their lopsided gender demographic split must be very troubling to them. Vast amounts of men over there have literally no chance at ever getting married. There must be many going gay as a result, which probably alarms them into making mandates like these.

It's bizarre and concerning that some people are actually agreeing with the CCP on this.

I have my opinions and preferences on what I like or don't like in a game. Doesn't mean I'm gonna outlaw what I don't like and take away anyone's freedom to express whatever they want creatively.

It goes both ways. I get to read/watch/play/create whatever I want, and so do you.

Yep. As an American, the thought of someone agreeing with a totalitarian regime outlawing certain forms of expression and art, while casting what is the correct ideal of a man, is about as weak and un-American as it gets. That's aside from how terribly homophobic it is.

Trying to curtail western influence and prepare “men” for conflict.

Watch the US woke businesses and media fall in line slowly.

You don't understand. China wants their men ready to fight. They are perfectly happy with us being dumbasses.
I understand. I fully expect a good percentage of wokeness is foreign destabilisation efforts, and dumbasses follow along. But we’re getting into conspiracy territory with such theorising.

But doing business in China, means towing the China line.

Some of you, and your genuine lack of empathy, are what give me an axe-splitting headache every day. If the United States 'falls,' it won't be because of what is in my pants and what adult I choose to love. Ffs, get outside sometime, will you? The echochamber radiation has really done a number on you.

Anyone who tries to control the outcome of true artistic expression is pondscum in my book. Go ask Shostakovich how he loved composing in Soviet Russia where countless artists and friends of his disappeared. Absolute fools you are.

Thanks!

Sorry I meant to say games and gaming world 😅
If a company wants to sell their game in China, they have to make sure it won't have say, a gay protagonist because the Chinese market will ban it.

The less regions you sell your game at, the less money you make.

So companies will have to make a choice: A) Don't sell in China and get less money but earn twitter points, or B) don't have effeminate male and gay characters in the game - thus making money from the Chinese market - but earn the wrath of the western SJWs.

A 'damned if you do, damned if you don't' scenario for the western publishers/devs.

MAXIMUM OPINION SHIELD BUBBLE!
Some opinions just show how big a fuckwad someone is...the rest of thier opinions likely follow the same path. I'm here for fun chat and insight, not some 1950s homophobe rally

Yet you decided to enter this "Fun chat and insight" topic.

I didn't complain about the thread did I? Maybe some folks would have a mature and realistic take on China's actions .. you know, like impact on game direction from Western devs, so worth checking...finding those to ignore is just icing.
