Who Won the China/India Border Standoff?

I'm happy for all involved that India and China have backed down from the Doklam Plateau without killing a single person.

Sadly, though, peace makes for lame media coverage. So I won't be having as much fun now that World War III has been called off.

At least Indian television has some sweet cartoons to commemorate the o...

Headlines: Did Macau’s Casinos Delay Typhoon Warning?

Macau may have gambled with the lives of its people during a deadly typhoon. I hope I don't have to go back.

And the CCP is going to monitor who's buying what at foreign stores. You know, for "security" purposes.

Plus the CCP rises to defend Venezuela from the evil American hegemonists. Because the Venezuelan government ...

How China's Rich Are Getting $$$ Out of Macau

This episode concept was sparked by a China Uncensored viewer in Macau. He wanted to remain anonymous because he goes back and forth the mainland China. But anyway, he did a lot of great research for this, so thank you!

Also, we've been wanting to cover Macau more anyway.

In this Friday's episode, we'll cover how Macau a...

Hong Kong Thinks Punishing Activists Is Smart

Did they not think this was going to backfire? Don't forget to take a moment and send Joshua Wong, Nathan Law, and Alex Chow some words of support on Twitter!

Censorship for Fun and Profit

We cover censorship a lot. (This time, how Cambridge University Press caved to Chinese censors.) But it seems it doesn't get a lot of views. Do you like these kinds of episodes? What could we do to make them more interesting and appealing?

Don’t Hurt the Feelings of the Chinese People

I just want each and every one of you to know that by being a member of the China Uncensored 50-cent Army, you're really hurting the feelings of the Chinese people. Good work ;)

WeChat: The App That’s Always Watching You

I don't know how many times I have to say this, but 1984 was supposed to be a warning, not an instruction manual! Then again, Orwell couldn't even come up with something like this...

A Video Game is Beating China’s Army

As long as there's a moves list, I'm sure they'll be just fine.

China’s Watching You Undress

Someone in the Chinese Communist Party is getting all their ideas from movies. Minority Report, for instance. Now, it's the Truman Show. Watching you watching me! Enjoy

Trump Orders China Trade Investigation

China’s Urbanization Plans Are Going Wrong

YouTube's got a new layout and we've got a new episode of China Uncensored. Enjoy!

—Chris

Yeah, this is gonna end well.

Chinese troops continue to face off with Indian troops in the border area with Bhutan. Now Chinese state-run media are threatening war, saying they could "annihilate" all the Indian solders.

Jeez, calm down people. Can't we all just go to Chinese Merch for lu...

China Builds Titanic 2, and Other Headlines

More crazy news out of China this week. Titanic 2, the Grammys go to China, and the truth behind the tinfoil hat conspiracy!

Do you like the "headlines" format we've been experimenting with since early July? Leave your comments below. 

China Agrees to $1B North Korea Sanctions

Nothing makes China look like a friendly ally more than nuclear threats from North Korea.

In this episode, we look at why China agreed to sanction North Korea, and what impact it might have.

China’s Hand in Venezuela’s Nightmare

Let's just say this is another example of how well "Socialism with Chinese characteristics" works.

Should We Be Afraid of China's Military?

The People's Liberation Army held a gigantic military parade on July 30 in Inner Mongolia.

Well, it's more than meets the eye. Xi Jinping has carefully orchestrated various aspects of the parade to push one message internationally, and another to his potential enemies within the CCP.

Apple Bows to Censorship in China, Again

Apple loves the China market. They love it so much, it seems they'll do anything to stay there—including doing pretty much whatever the CCP asks. Here's the latest.

AI Robots Turn Against the CCP

I swear, I had nothing to do with this! My Matrix connections aren't that deep.

Washington DC Episode: The Court Complaints Against Jiang Zemin

We had been looking into this topic for a long time—the legal complaints filed against Jiang Zemin.

In May, Swoop Films approached us and said they were doing a documentary on the same topic, and wanted to include China Uncensored in their documentary when we covered the topic. So in a cool confluence of events, we ende...

Monthly Message for August!

Hello my glorious 50 Cent Army! It’s time for another monthly message! It was a wild month for China Uncensored. First and foremost in my mind is the amazing time we had with our summer intern Noah. We were able to bring him to New York all the way from jolly old England thanks to your support. He contributed in a big way to t...

China and India Scuffle Toward War

China and India have been trying to get an edge over the other for a long time now. But will there be a repeat of the 1962 border war? It could make great fodder for Bollywood...

Thank you for your support that enabled us to bring law school student from the UK Noah Bicker to New York to be our summer intern. He has provided some fantastic research for China Uncensored. Some of it you've seen in episodes already, and more of it you'll see over the coming weeks.

How China Is Building Our Dystopian Future

Nothing says "we care" like 24-hour surveillance.

The CCP has been meticulously picking out gems from America's best American dystopian novels to come up with their own "Dystopia with Chinese Characteristics."

This is the first segment of this week's half-hour episode, which we release early on our website:

Now I'm not housing expert, but I'd say nows the perfect time to buy in Beijing and Shanghai! It's a great investment that will only see bigger and bigger returns!

Chinese Spy Ship + War w/ India?

When your regime starts banning things like Winnie the Pooh and certain emojis, it might be time to reconsider how secure that regime really is.

Vietnam vs China Over Oil in South China Sea

It's looking more and more like Vietnam would rather ally with the United States than China! There was a time when I bet no one thought that could be possible.

Who Won the G20?

Yessir, nothing like spending hours and hour analyzing the body language of world politicians. Yup, nothing better one could do with their weekend!
