Gay rights crackdown in China

[StevieWonders]

Multiple social media accounts belonging to major university LGBTQ rights groups in China have been blocked from the popular WeChat app, prompting fears of targeted censorship and calls Wednesday for an online protest.

The WeChat pages of groups, including Huazhong University of Science and Technology Gay Pride and Peking University’s ColorsWorld, had their past posts scrubbed and replaced with a notice stating: “all content has been blocked and the use of the account has been stopped” for violations of unspecified social media regulations.

I did see some speculation that pushing for “marriage equality” may be perceived as a threat to China’s latest “for Xi’s sake have as many kids as possible” policy in the face of China’s demography bust.
