Not sure this is the right com, but it feels closest. Just saw the announcement that the Hololive Vtuber Coco is leaving. She didn't give a reason, but people are assuming it has to do with the antis she's been hounded by since referring to Taiwan as Taiwan when going over analytics in a stream. I'm sad to see her go, she was never my favorite but I liked some of her stuff and she's a big part of hololive. However, I just do not get the insane level of hatred towards China and communism these reddit weebs are just spilling everywhere. Do they honestly think Xi has a list like "1. genocide 2. bully Vtuber"? I am just so tired of the sinophobia in internet cultures. I'm tired of reactionary weebs. I'm tired of people saying they "don't want political shows/games/streamers/whatever" but want to just spread the most fascist takes possible. Sorry if this is barely comprehensible. I'm tired, sad, and angry. I love anime and Vtubers, but why are so many of the people who watch it just so incredibly awful?

    Pls go back to :reddit-logo:

    To give some context on just how wrong you are, Tencent, owns a small share of Reddit, think estimated value is 5-10% of Reddit. Who is the majority shareholder of Tencent, the CCP/CPC? No, it's a South African company called Naspers. By your logic, it is South Africa who has leverage over Reddit, not the CPC/CCP

        But the largest shareholder of Tencent is not the Chinese Communist Party, it is a South African company called Naspers, with an estimated 28-31% share in Tencent. So claiming Reddit is censoring anti China news because of Tencent investment makes little sense, because neither the Chinese government or Chinese companies are the largest shareholders of Tencent. Also anti China news constantly hits the top of r/all, so if they are trying to censor anything anti China (very unlikely) they're doing a completely terrible job.
