I hate to use anecdotes but if you're clamping down on Winnie the Pooh ... it's really hard to see that as anything but a fairly fearful position.

Actually I'm very doubtful that Winnie the Pooh thing was decided by him. Pretty sure that's just decided by lower level censors and Xi himself has no idea that the Pooh controversy even exists.
