China's receptiveness to Western media is a recent phenomenon, and they could cut it off tomorrow and not suffer half as much as the film industry, game industry, etc. would over here. I'm sure that's the fear at Apple, Blizzard, Disney, whatever - China doesn't need the West as much as the West needs China.
cuz I got the good stuff kids go for
The fuck? Even if this is just a joke this is in ridiculously poor taste. China is banning any criticism that someone raises about them literally killing people. The mods here are just banning people who break the rules of the forum and post bullshit.
How would he know this? Did Mr. China call him to inform him lol?
EDM artists like touring China (EDC China), it's not a stretch to assume that he was probably informed of this through the Chinese Embassy in the USHow... does he know he's banned? Did his future events in China get canceled?
This seems like a really random thing to joke about though, especially considering he's toured China plenty of times. It's probably real, the CCP is petty as fuck.Pretty sure he's joking but I appreciate the sentiment nonetheless
You out-of-touch oldie!!1!
you ever heard the song "Clarity"?
or "The Middle"?
just two examples of huge songs he's produced
Congratulations on making it out of the last couple of years without hearing "The Middle". I'm not even joking. That damn song followed me around like I owed it money.
Seems like it's a topical thing to joke about TBH.This seems like a really random thing to joke about though, especially considering he's toured China plenty of times. It's probably real, the CCP is petty as fuck.
Ironically, him joking about this will probably net him a ban if he wasn't banned before.
Pretty much, which is why people have been having issues with China.
Twitter is banned in China. Why the fuck would they do anything China says? 😂
China will last just fine, western media might not there tho.
How can CCP leadership and their supporters be more of a bitch than Donald Trump? It's amazing.
The same with them trying to give wealth to their people without giving them political power/responsibility. Eventually the divide is just too obvious.China is being really weird by trying to push its soft/cultural power globally while also being isolationists by cutting off outsiders and overseas culture so strictly. I don't see how they can achieve the former if moves like this continue to drive a cultural divide.
Nah, it won't be.
These irrational acts are out of desperation. They're slipping. This isn't what someone in control, someone in power does.
China has more power than this. They could cause a lot of damage. Manufacturing, for starters, if they want to make an example of someone large.
They've been banning people for years over hanging out with the Dalai Lama. This isn't a sign of anything.Nah, it won't be.

They murdered 2500 students in the street for wanting freedom, but you think banning a Twitter user from the county is finally a sign of them slipping? What's wrong with you?Yes it is. It was never like this before. Hanging out with the Dali Lama is a lot different from hitting star on a tweet. They're unhinged.
