It has emerged that the Chinese Communist Party has proposed a new law that will see people who wear the ‘wrong clothes’ fined £500 and imprisoned for 15 days.
A newspaper outlet reported that the law would allow those who produce, disseminate, publicise, and spread items or speeches that could hurt the Chinese nation’s spirit or damage the Chinese nation’s feelings to be penalised.
Critics allege the law is vague and a violation of basic citizens’ rights’ to select one’s own attire. Others argue that it could stimulate the spread of populism and ultra-nationalism and intensify oppositional sentiments.
There’s been a growing anti-Japanese feeling throughout China in recent years under the leadership of President Xi Jinping. His rule has also witnessed an upsurge in nationalism.
Police have previously temporarily detained people in China for wearing clothing that was reportedly linked too closely to Japan.
A woman wearing apparel from the Tag dynasty was ousted from the archaeological Park in Wuhan on Thursday after staff wrongly believed her outfit was from Japan. The newspaper claims she was removed thrice.
It came after a woman was detained for several hours last year in Southeastern Suzhou for wearing a Japanese kimono and taking photographs in the street.
Legal professionals acquainted with the proposals claim the legislation lacks a clear definition and reportedly fear that it could result in extreme enforcement.
China University of Political Science and Law professor Zhao Hong questioned what would happen if an officer had a personal interpretation of the hurt and initiated moral judgment of others outside the scope of the law.
Lao Dongyan, a professor of law at Tsinghua University, echoed the sentiment and argued for the removal of the suggested law.
She reportedly said that the regulation could also stimulate the spread of populism and ultra-nationalism, further deteriorating the public opinion environment, and may also intensify oppositional sentiments in some countries.
Others believe the legislation is another attempt by Mr. Xi’s regime to control Chinese citizens in every aspect of life.
Some of us might find this slightly absurd, but the globalist WEF that seems to be running Westminster sees China as the ideal society they’d like us to become.
The problem is, it is happening here in the United Kingdom with the criticism of leftist trans ideology, ultra feminism, socialist climate change dogma, race and the list goes on, and if some pencil neck is initiated it could warrant a visit from the ‘Thought Stazi’, who are thinly camouflaged as the police.
Next, we’ll be penalised for wearing nice clothes and will only be permitted to purchase six new items of clothing every year. They might even get you to rent your attire!
Very similar things are occurring in the United Kingdom. Ban this, ban that, get rid of free speech, free thought. You can’t say this, you can’t think that, and anybody believing we’re different needs to give their head a little shake.
I wonder how long it will be before we get banged up for using too much electricity, and China is where our Government and politicians take their inspiration from. And who decides what is ‘offensive?’.
Soon new positions will be made available for totalitarian police patrol called the ‘clothing police’, which will come with excellent conditions and good rates of pay!
This will be yet another mafia-style racket for the Leader of Khan of the People’s Republic of London to follow and money in on.
