Chinese President Xi Jinping has ordered the censorship of the recent Joe Rogan video circulating around the internet, in which he commented on a remarkable switch kick knockout in a UFC fight. In a statement released by the Chinese government, they have cited the need to protect their citizens from “excessive and inappropriate enthusiasm”, and have labeled the video as “inappropriate”.
The government went on to say that “such displays of exhilaration should not be encouraged and can lead to dangerous behavior.” They further warned citizens to “think twice before indulging in such activities”.
In response, Joe Rogan shared a statement of his own on Twitter, saying “I’m always astounded at how athletes manage to perform the incredible feats that we see in the octagon. It’s truly amazing and it’s something that should be celebrated, not censored.”
The Chinese government has maintained their stance on this matter, citing their need to protect the citizens from “unnecessary excitement”. However, some citizens have come out in support of Rogan’s statement, and have taken to social media to voice their disappointment with the censorship. Despite the outcry, it appears that the Chinese government will continue to stand firm on this issue.
