Re: fighting censorship
Sun, March 15, 2009 - 7:21 PMBecause of a government crackdown on primarily obscenity, people invented a mythical creature known as the Caonima. This means grass-mud horse and is one tone away from the phonetic equivalent of "fuck your mother". A challenge to Chinese censors trying to exert more control on the internet, attempting to harmonize all points of view with the government. -
