I guess you could say that your references to history have been removed from that thread's official backstory. IRONIC
The Chinese audience is always going to win because they are focused in their demands and what they care about. Other audiences have like 300 different things they want.
People forgot about the NBA incidents. People forgot about the WHO incidents. People forgot about the UN incident. R6:S had huge backlash over their initial censorship plan, but they are still doing it over time slowly instead of all at once. Even if people didn't literally "forget" these things, they might as well have with their inaction.
In contrast, Chinese audiences are serious. They will set up entire boards and sites to attack specific people. Their boycotts actually work. They will literally try to kill people that go against their demands. If you go against the Chinese audience, you aren't just blacklisted from the Chinese market but also every other market that profits off the Chinese market.

Imagine writing a peice of game lore about "the German invasion of Jewish" and G*mers getting mad when you edit it.
