Intimidating Taiwanese artists who supported Xinjiang cotton, the DPP was criticized for moral blackmail

  [Global Times reporter Zhang Tianxing] The Swedish clothing brand H&M has triggered a wave of boycotts in the mainland and has expanded to many international brands. Taiwanese artists Xu Guanghan, Peng Yuyan and Ouyang Nana have respectively lifted their endorsement contracts through brokerage companies and related international companies, and supported Xinjiang cotton.

The intimidation of the DPP authorities on them has raised questions on the island.

  According to a report on the 30th in Taiwan’s China Times Electronic News, after many Taiwanese artists expressed support for Xinjiang Cotton, Taiwan’s "Executive President" Su Zhenchang recently threatened that some people did not know the importance or for their own interests, did not know the importance of human rights, and did not do anything about it. Words and deeds that are in the interests of Taiwan or that do not respect human rights, "I hope everyone will speak up for human rights."

Taiwan's "Minister of Culture" Li Yongde replied, "This is tantamount to endorsing the persecution of human rights."

"Minister of Economy" Wang Meihua threatened not to rule out follow-up international actions. Taiwan "Legislative Court President" You Xikun also said that boycotting Xinjiang cotton is no longer a political issue, but a human rights issue.

Many netizens ridiculed Su Zhenchang and said, “Should we make the vaccine purchase clear first? Is the lack of water resolved? Is there any time to manage Xinjiang cotton”; others questioned that the people have the right to choose not to eat Lai pigs (the beautiful pigs containing clenbuterol). ), but the authorities refused to mark Laizhu. Where are the human rights?

  "Zhongguang" chairman Zhao Shaokang said on the 30th that artists must respect what they do. To embarrass them, it is the persimmons who choose soft food.

Kuomintang member of Taipei City Councillor Luo Zhiqiang said that Taiwan politicians’ troubles with Peng Yuyan and other celebrities are just jokes. Quotient".

He said that in 2020, Taiwan’s exports to the mainland (including Hong Kong) reached 136.74 billion U.S. dollars, accounting for 43.8% of Taiwan’s total export value. It has been said that the 130 billion US dollars of products sold to the mainland are because "the mainland needs Taiwan." "So Taiwan has to ban business. How can it meet the mainland's 130 billion US dollars a year?"

  "The United Daily News" commented on the 30th that the "Xinjiang Cotton Incident" involved international political and economic wrestling. Since the Tsai Ing-wen authorities support human rights, they should support artists' freedom to express their opinions.

"Xinjiang Cotton Dry Government", the "China Times" commented on this topic, saying that the Cai authorities, who have no research on Xinjiang issues, have not figured out the direction, so they shouted and burned with others, and were not afraid of the fire burning their ass.

First of all, a number of Hong Kong and Taiwan artists have expressed their support for Xinjiang Cotton. This is nothing to do with the authorities.

The purpose of the United States is to engage in "international combined punches" and suppress the rise of the mainland. The DPP authorities should be very clear about this, but they are willing to be the frontrunners, and the people have no alternative.

The article said that, besides, the Tsai authorities did not look at how their human rights were doing. They set up a "party property committee" to confiscate the property of non-governmental organizations, and used the NCC (Taiwan's "National Communications Commission") to suppress the media and shut down TV stations. Did they attach importance to human rights?

"Today, I have taken care of the artists and asked them to pay attention to human rights. Take care of yourself!"

  According to Hong Kong media reports, Hong Kong artist Wang Jiaer, who is the spokesperson of Adidas, issued a statement on the 25th, announcing the termination of all cooperation with the brand and stating that national interests are above all else.

As soon as Wang Jiaer won the endorsement of South Korea's Hanji Shinsegae Duty Free Shop, he was suspected of being withdrawn because of the unbearable pressure of public opinion.
