The South Park episode with the China-critical content premiered in the United States on October 2.

Shortly thereafter, South Park-related searches on Chinese social media site Weibo resulted in an error message, the BBC reports, and on the Douban movie site, a message with the text "In accordance with relevant laws does not display this search result."

"We welcome Chinese censors into our hearts"

On Twitter, South Park's creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone have now made an official apology to the Chinese regime.

“We welcome the Chinese censors into our homes and hearts. We too love money more than democracy and freedom. Long live China's magnificent Communist Party! "

"Everything okay now?", The tweet ends.

Pooh-censorship

The "Band in China" section refers to the Uyghur retraining camps reported by SVT and that Nalle Puh became a controversial figure after his revelation was compared to China's leader Xi Jinping.

The first time the comparison appeared was in 2013 when social media in China began circulating and circulating pictures with Nalle Puh and his friend Tiger, next to a picture of Xi Jinping with Barack Obama.
