(boy’s love writers, so i guess more yaoi then slash) admit i didn’t read the whole article because it seems ridiculous and western reporting on China is like 90% fabrications. someone educate me on whatever this is. is it conservative local governments doing local government shit?
my partner loves this shit especially from China and i don’t want to inform her about some made up BS designed to radicalize the slash and yaoi community against the CPC
it was only a few months ago that people downloaded redbook, a chinese social media app filled with gay people kissing each other in the frontpage
i don’t disbelieve that there’s a blanket ban on lgbtq issues in China, in the same sense that anti porn laws are applied selectively in Japan and that a similar social conservative streak dominates in India. but given that the main source for this issue is RFA then i’m gonna err on the side of caution. which is to not assume that there’s a repeat of the chechnya concentration camps situation
I lived in China and went to gay clubs lol so concentration camps is definitely not what I had in mind. But then again, there was a time when you could see gay people kissing each other on the front page in Russian social media apps and that time was not so long ago.
