CCP China is so bitter lol
Don’t think we need to say anything else about how they would shut the whole live broadcasting because it doesn’t like what’s nominated.
We do want to congratulate all the nominees especially Chloe Zhao who’s the first woman of colour to be nominated for best director.

Oscars Dumped by Hong Kong’s TVB After China Censorship Order
The city’s largest TV network TVB, has broadcast the Academy Awards on its English-language channel every year since 1969, when musical ‘Oliver!’ won Best Picture. However, other local broadcasters in Hong Kong including Now TV, Viu TV and Cable TV also don’t have the broadcast rights.
The awards will take place in Los Angeles on April 25. “Do Not Split,” which chronicles the 2019 demonstrations against China’s tightening grip over the former British territory, was nominated for best short documentary.
The Communist Party’s propaganda department told all local media outlets to scrap live broadcasts of the Oscars.

Protests has erupted in multiple cities across China, including Urumqi, Shanghai, and Wuhan.
Some protesters even chanted "CCP, step down" and "Xi Jinping, step down". Others recited the slogans from Beijing's lone protester at Sitong Bridge last month:
No lies, we want dignity
No cultural revolution, we want reforms
No dictator, we want the vote
No more being slaves, we are citizens
Videos and photos of the protests are shared by liberal Chinese netizens. Some had hashtagged their posts with "Liberate China, Revolution of Our Times".
Some protesters were seen holding up blank sheets of A4 paper, devoid of any slogans. Some had written messages on theirs: "What's so scary about blank paper?" "I'm a Chinese youth, not foreign powers".
Shanghai police has reportedly begun arresting protesters on the streets. The crowds responded with resistance as they retreated.
On the Clubhouse platform, protesters hosted a live feed to show the situation around them. They urged their audience to share their message, just as Iranian protesters did, so that the world can see their efforts.
Nearly a thousand people watched the live feed, some leaving comments that they should emulate Hong Kong protesters' "#BeWater" tactics to avoid casualties. Others predicted Shanghai will be under a heavy curfew by tomorrow. One commenter shared a Mandarin version of Hong Kong's protest anthem "#GloryToHongKong".
One of the hosts said that the most precious lesson she learned from the Hong Kong protests is "#DoNotSplit". She called on other protesters not to criticize each other, but instead respect each other's decisions.
