I know we have to fight the “anti-CCP propaganda” but people do get detained and disappeared, it’s exaggerated by the anti-communist propaganda but the reality is that it does happen.
As long as you’re not disseminating any anti-government propaganda, bringing up sensitive topics, or touching the interest of the elites, you’re going to be fine. Everyone knows this and has learned how to lay low.
You think a bunch of gamers who just want to play video games want to take that risk?
i don’t understand why the government takes the effort. i’m trying to avoid petty moralism in either direction but in this case what is the purpose of even taking notice?
The government is not one entity. Most of the times it’s provincial/municipal governments. For example, the queer fanfic writers that were detained last time, if I remember correctly, were just some local cops.
Nobody really knows why. Sometimes it’s power tripping, sometimes it’s to meet a certain KPI especially now it’s the end of the year, so some departments need to meet their quarterly/annual targets.
