Who Eats Dogs? Don't Say "Chinese A**holes" Or Facebook Censors You

So, this happened in a private Facebook group yesterday. To the question, "Who eats dogs?" I provided this response, and then the Overton window slammed shut on my keyboard:


Yes, it's now the case that Facebook has decided that discussions of Chinese eating habits — the proximate origin of the COVID-19 virus — are off-limits. This is, to put it mildly, insane. "Respectful" means we can't swear? The hell, Zuck. This is part of a general campaign Facebook appears to have started five years ago (at least) in which they decided to purge content the Chinese Communist Party wanted silenced, including video of Tibetan monks self-immolating to protest CCP repression.
