Let's be honest, we all know why they're banning South Park. It's because they showed Winnie the Pooh...

P.S. While this trending topic isn't directly related to technology, great to see the masses in tech taking a stance against censorship.

I was surprised to hear that that Winnie the Pooh was banned in China for some ridiculous reason.

Then I did my verification. And turns out it is not the truth.

baidu is dominant search engine in China. you can see that the search results do show Winnie-the-Pooh both in Chinese and in English.

I don't understand why some people say it's banned and others seem truly believe. simply a joke? you have your judgement.

Of course! Pooh looks just like the Chinese president for life, after all.
