Chinese social media giant WeChat shuts LGBT accounts

BANGKOK (AP) — China’s most popular social media service has deleted accounts on LGBT topics run by university students and nongovernment groups, prompting concern the ruling Communist Party is tightening control over gay and lesbian content.

I'm guessing this is true, which is disappointing. However, it doesn't mention any scope of these accounts though, so it's hard to say whether these were targeted for being LGBT accounts or if it's something else that got them banned.

EDIT: We'll see what the gov't does in response to this. Just read FidelCastro's comment, and remember the definition of critical support .

    Yeah where I'm from its always been a racist thing associated with the past. No American context needed. But obviously every country has their own history and it will definitely mean different things there.
