Censorship from abroad, the chinese govt doesn't like chinese folks discussing communist atrocities

https://www.axios.com/zoom-closes-chinese-user-account-tiananmen-square-f218fed1-69af-4bdd-aac4-7eaf67f34084.html

The U.S. video-conferencing company Zoom closed the account of a group of prominent U.S.-based Chinese activists after they held a Zoom event commemorating the 31st anniversary of the June 4 Tiananmen Square Massacre, Axios has learned.

China is a cancer that has already formed deep-running metastases all across Silicon Valley and Hollywood.

Thing about capitalism is it doesn't matter who's giving the money, it will do what they want. China is currently teaching a masterclass on how an authoritarian regime can hijack democracies by exploiting capitalism.

Saudi-Arabia did it first if we're being honest. By any objective standards, it would have been at the top of the list of "axis of evil" countries, and a far more deserving recipient of crushing boycots than Cuba, Venezuela or Russia.
