What a comprehensive rebuttal to his counterpoint lol

You guys really have no idea what to say once you run out of prescripted talking points, huh?

You decided to go out on a limb to defend the Chinese government, make a false implication about it, and when you're called on it, your answer is "Nothing would ever satisfy you people".

What did you expect when you lied?

Do you concede the below statement that you replied to? I'll re-paste it to confirm:

Since this work contained positive depictions of gay men, explicit (by Chinese standards) gay sex scenes, and resurrected the ghost of Tiananmen Square, at the time, no mainland Chinese publisher would have published it, nor would the author be safe from government reprisals. Hence, its anonymous publication on the Internet.

Do you accept that is true?

Satisfied with positive lgbt portayals being illegal to broadcast are you?
