I think China's POV on this is that speech intended purely to piss people off shouldn't be broadcast at all, and that even well-intended speech that is critical of a group should be limited to certain contexts in order to prevent needless conflict.
It is hateful incitement against a religious group. It should be viewed identically to performatively burning an lgbt flag, which is similarly hateful incitement against lgbt people. Hatespeech should be a crime and this is that.
The only reason it's not illegal in america is that it's "freedom of speech" bullshit.
