China has banned hip-hop culture and actors with tattoos from appearing on television.

The countrys top media regulator the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television of the Peoples Republic of China (SAPPRFT) now specifically requires that programs should not feature actors with tattoos [or depict] hip hop culture, sub-culture (non-mainstream culture) and dispirited culture (decadent culture), Sina, a Chinese news outlet, reports.

Gao Changli, director of the administrations publicity department, outlined four Dont rules on Friday:


Absolutely do not use actors whose heart and morality are not aligned with the party and whose morality is not noble
Absolutely do not use actors who are tasteless, vulgar and obscene
Absolutely do not use actors whose ideological level is low and have no class
Absolutely do not use actors with stains, scandals and problematic moral integrity

Why not just ban Western media altogether and just play one channel funded by the government.

This type of shit would happen if we continue to justify censorship in America and whatnot. The west is not immune from this type of statism.

Bad translation you posted. There's new regulations about visible tattoos being introduced soon, I've seen people losing their shit over it on WeChat.

This is why I said I WISH.

Plus, it was a light hearted joke. The joke being that no value was lost. I made this joke cause im not a big fan of hip hop.

You need me to explain the joke further, cuckmaster flex?

Oh and for those that didn't know...

If a foreign musicians wants to do a tour in China, the government has a board that approves or denies them based on their lyrics. There's hardly ever American rappers performing in the country because of this smh

You're probably thinking of Japan and even there it's almost exclusive to the yakuza.

It's not huge really, you're thinking of Japan.

Tattoos in China aren't cheap, good artists are hard to come by.

It took me a while to find a studio I trusted in Shanghai

Implying any of this is fucking exclusive to hip-hop and not media in general

Because they diversified their bonds, but in the end actually lost money for doing so. They're quite salty about it tbqh...
