As tensions mount, police say protesters are gathering bricks from pavements. Meanwhile, the Legislative Council meeting due at 11am was delayed with no indication of when it would resume.

Send 3000 武警 with million rounds of rubber bullets. Graphite Bayonets. No need to arrest. Whack half dead and left on the road, no ambulance too. Punishment served directly on the streets.

Now that they are under China's thumb they start clamoring for democracy. It's a bit late in the day to cry over spilt milk.

When the Ang Mohs were running things Hong Kong was the best because Ang Mohs are the best of the best.

Once China extends its surveillance and its social credit system to cover HK these sorts of time wasting symbolic acts will a thing of the past in HK.

The chinks will realise that acts of defiance will result in huge deductions from their credit score leaving them unable to go about day to day life. Chinks may be dumb but they are not brainless and acts that affect their livelihood will be avoided.

No worries. XiJP will send in the tanks soon. He must put down this rebellion instigated by Zionists to subjugate China's rise.

Nothing to do with the Zionists, it's Emperor Xi bringing this upon himself.

Hope Trump raises the tariffs after G20.

Winnie the Pooh censored in China after President Xi Jinping comparisons

Beloved book and animated cartoon character Winnie the Pooh is being censored in China, according to BBC News.

The Chinese name for Winnie the Pooh (Little Bear Winnie) is being blocked on Chinese social media sites because bloggers have been comparing the plump bear to China's President Xi Jinping, the BBC reports. Animated GIFs of the character were deleted from the app WeChat, and those who comment on the site Weibo with "Little Bear Winnie" get an error message.

One internet meme that went viral was an encounter between Xi and Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe during an awkward handshake. Social media users combined the image of the two politicians with that of Eeyore and Winnie the Pooh.

Another moment that was memorialized by social media users was from 2015, when Xi popped out of the top of a limousine. A meme was born when an image was found of Pooh in his very own car.

A photo showing a meeting between Xi and President Obama provided another popular meme in 2013. This time, a picture showed Winnie the Pooh and his smiling friend Tigger, walking side by side.

Who’s afraid of Winnie the Pooh? The Chinese government, apparently.
Chinese censors have banned the release of Christopher Robin, a new film adaptation of AA Milne’s beloved story about Winnie the Pooh, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
The Winnie the Pooh character has become a lighthearted way for people across China to mock their president, Xi Jinping, but it seems the government doesn’t find the joke very funny.

It started when Xi visited the US in 2013, and an image of Xi and then president Barack Obama walking together spurred comparisons to Winnie – a portly Xi – walking with Tigger, a lanky Obama.

Xi was again compared to the fictional bear in 2014 during a meeting with Japan’s prime minister, Shinzo Abe, who took on the part of the pessimistic, gloomy donkey, Eeyore.

As comparisons grew and the meme spread online, censors began erasing the images which mocked Xi. The website of US television station HBO was blocked last month after comedian John Oliver repeatedly made fun of the Chinese president’s apparent sensitivity over comparisons of his figure with that of Winnie. The segment also focused on China’s dismal human rights record.

Another comparison between Xi and Winnie during a military parade in 2015 became that year’s most censored image, according to Global Risk Insights. The firm said the Chinese government viewed the meme as “a serious effort to undermine the dignity of the presidential office and Xi himself”.
“Authoritarian regimes are often touchy, yet the backlash is confusing since the government is effectively squashing an potential positive, and organic, public image campaign for Xi,” the report said at the time. “Beijing’s reaction is doubly odd given the fact that Xi has made substantial efforts to create a cult of personality showing him as a benevolent ruler.”
Another reason for the film’s rejection by the authorities may be that Chinaonly allows 34 foreign films to be released in cinemas each year. That leaves Hollywood summer blockbusters, family films and contenders from across the world jockeying for a tiny number of spots.
Christopher Robin is the second Disney film to be denied a release this year, after A Wrinkle in Time was blocked, while the studio’s Ant Man and the Wasp will open this month.
