Why can't I say "1989" in chat? How is 1989 a banned word?

Chinese game, so Chinese censorship...

NetEase is a chinese company. Marvel probably doesn't care. Chinese company on the other hand...

Marvel is, but as a company, it can sell its rights to any other company. That is why the game is developed and managed by NetEase, a Chinese company, not Marvel.

Why would your birth year ever come up in chat?
At least your bait post had some originality to it.

This is a CCP run company, and will censor anything that proves china is the fascist police state that it is.

You cant mention Winnie the Pooh either, since their joke president looks like him and that makes him rage.

Nothing happened in that year, so there is no need to ever type it. Most boring year in the history of years, maybe ever.

Marvel is an American thing, but the studio they commissioned for the game is based in China. And if those Chinese devs don’t want to be the reason why their family disappears then they will do whatever the CCP wants them to do.

Real answer: because Xi Jinping has a small ♥♥♥♥ and oppressing his people is the only way he can feel good about himself.

April 15 to June 4 1989 is when the Tienanmen Square protests and massacre happened, but according to the CCP it didn't. Erasure of history happens every so often with Chinese history since there's never not a dictatorship at any given moment

woooooow that is pathetic!!!!!!
