Partial correction out of principle: while I am not going to dispute you on your personal opinions of Xi Jinping, I am going to point out errors that could’ve been easily avoided via. a 5 second web search.

Winnie the Pooh was never banned in China. Disneyland Shanghai has a newly built feature ride dedicated to the character, a Baidu search brings up millions of results for it, Chinese online stores and physical outlets continues to sell merchandise of it. Dolls, T-shirt prints, Official Disney enamel pins, etc. The children’s show is available via. Chinese streaming services.

The only instance that one may consider a ban is a SPECIFIC memetic reference that compares Xi Jiping and Winnie in one image, which IS censored. Some in the Chinese public consider it racist imagery because a yellow bear is being compared with a Chinese president.
