Apparently the CCP plan to use Tianyi as a mascot for the communist party AND to censor works that go 'against' what they think is appropriate. Thoughts? i cant imagine that will go well for them.

edit: a japanese democrat  tried to use Miku before and I don't think the response was great

China is under an oppressive government, so the Chinese people cannot speak out against their decisions without risking being jail, or worse. The government have done far worse than censor Vocaloid videos, and control almost all areas of communication in China. Unfortunately, this cannot be stopped by backlash.
