Here is the mind-bender:
It seems that the CCP has some really good viewpoints in regards to morality, video games, masculinity, celebrities, and morality. They actually have viewpoints most parents or Christians can agree with.

If the parents or people refuse to govern themselves then the government is more than willing to regulate, mandate, and govern the people.
Is the CCP doing a good thing? Many would say initially “Yes, it’s about time someone is doing something about it.” But the actions of the CCP are on a slippery slope.
We can all agree that morality is seriously needed for the general population. The kids do spend too much time on video games, worshiping TV celebrities & sports stars, and let’s admit it we all like our men to be brave, strong, and there when the going gets tough.
However, when the government starts telling you what you can and can not do, your children can and can not do, what you wear, how you will be entertained, what you believe. It’s all ok if we agree with the people in charge. But what if the people in charge are of a completely different religion than we are?
The slippery slope in the CCP’s decision is what we see is going to very quickly become unconstitutional.
Read the article from NPR below and then ponder on what would happen if the power got into the wrong hands. Do you still agree with the CCP?
China Bans Effeminate Men From TV

BEIJING — China’s government banned effeminate men on TV and told broadcasters Thursday to promote “revolutionary culture,” broadening a campaign to tighten control over business and society and enforce official morality.
President Xi Jinping has called for a “national rejuvenation,” with tighter Communist Party control of business, education, culture and religion. Companies and the public are under increasing pressure to align with its vision for a more powerful China and healthier society.
The party has reduced children’s access to online games and is trying to discourage what it sees as unhealthy attention to celebrities.
Broadcasters must “resolutely put an end to sissy men and other abnormal esthetics,” the TV regulator said, using an insulting slang term for effeminate men — niang pao, or literally, “girlie guns.”
That reflects official concern that Chinese pop stars, influenced by the sleek, girlish look of some South Korean and Japanese singers and actors, are failing to encourage China’s young men to be masculine enough.
Broadcasters should avoid promoting “vulgar internet celebrities” and admiration of wealth and celebrity, the regulator said. Instead, programs should “vigorously promote excellent Chinese traditional culture, revolutionary culture and advanced socialist culture.”
Xi’s government also is tightening control over Chinese internet industries.
It has launched anti-monopoly, data security and other enforcement actions at companies including games and social media provider Tencent Holding and e-commerce giant Alibaba Group that the ruling party worries are too big and independent.
Rules that took effect Wednesday limit anyone under 18 to three hours per week of online games and prohibit play on school days.
Game developers already were required to submit new titles for government approval before they could be released. Officials have called on them to add nationalistic themes.
The party also is tightening control over celebrities.
Broadcasters should avoid performers who “violate public order” or have “lost morality,” the regulator said. Programs about the children of celebrities also are banned. Read more
