Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I know. He misworded it. It wasn't banned because it was never the law in the first place.

Granted, that is essentially a de facto ban. Exclusion by omission serves the exact same purpose as a ban, even if the semantics are different.

I think the difference here is that hinkle is making it sound like it was legal and then China turned around and banned it, it makes it seem like they’re going backwards in progress instead of forwards
