Hong Kong Bans Video Game In Further National Security Pus
BloombergJUN 8
The Spin
Government-critical narrative
This ban shows how far Hong Kong has fallen under Beijing's authoritarian grip. The authorities are now targeting even fictional entertainment that dares to question Communist Party rule. When creative freedom in gaming gets crushed like this, it proves the CCP completely controls Hong Kong's democratic freedoms.
Pro-government narrative
"Reversed Front: Bonfire" deliberately promotes armed revolution and secession under the guise of entertainment, which poses real threats to national security. The national security laws protect Hong Kong's peace from content designed to incite hatred and undermine the fundamental system, which is necessary to restore stability.
