This is what we tend to mean by sinophobia. There's a difference between knowledgeable and nuanced critique of the CPC and PRC in general, and repeating the most bog-standard confidently incorrect bullshit you can find. This utter chauvanism is spoken the same way European colonizers spoke about Africans back in the height of colonialism, and still today in some cases.
Illegal, limited largely to the 40 companies in Beijing and Shanghai. The average working hours in China is 46 per week.
Also bullshit, Winnie the Pooh is legal and fairly popular.
Again, bullshit. Criticism is popular and constructive in China, and protests do happen infrequently. Most people support the government though so it doesn't come to that.
Incorrect, Five Eyes countries do. This is projection from the west.
Incorrect, brainwashing does not exist.
Which is done to help develop a Chinese sovereign internet free of foreign influence, such as from western tech giants.
None of what you said is peer-reviewed.
