(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

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound so hostile/defensive. I understand why you assumed I would be American like most users on this website. It just happened so many times at this point – sometimes with people lecturing me on the country I live/lived in lol – that it got a bit old.
