Think TikTok dance challenge, but with a twist: in China/Taiwan there’s the ‘上车舞’ — the get-on-the-bus dance. The host dances, viewers spam ‘get on!’ in chat, and everyone joins the fun. 🚍💃
But this time, Taiwanese viewers hijacked the chat: instead of ‘get on,’ they spammed politicians’ names — Huang Kuo-chang (opposition firebrand) and Ko Wen-je (ex-Taipei mayor, political wildcard).
The host panicked: ‘Stop! Don’t say that!’ Seconds later… channel banned.
Moral: sometimes the bus doesn’t reach the next stop — it vanishes into censorship.”
