- Chinese president Xi Jinping is amassing an alarming amount of political power. If only his propaganda videos made the idea of unrestricted authority seem as troubling as the concept of singing children.

Stop saying I look like Winnie the Pooh smh

Omg this is gold🤣🤣🤣

It’s kind of like a meme in China. Its goetten so huge that Xi hinself banned it.
Whats even "worse" is that all this crap has gotten "worse" not better.
Long live Xi the Pooh, Emperor of ChiNazi!
I asked my friend what it’s like living in China, he said ‘Can’t complain’
Lol
Complain and be disappeared.
Yep he's quite literally not allowed to complain.
LOL
You trust that? Go on weibo, Chinese twitter, complains about the country are everywhere.
The laughter of the woman in the crowd that you can hear throughout the episode is something that brings me a smile.
I was hoping someone would mention her. I love her laugh it’s so genuine and contagious
Glad someone else noticed it
Is "smile" really the right word?
I rewound 4 times to hear her laugh 😂
Was it really 6 million??
For some strange reason, HBO is no longer available in China.
u're right
Winnie the Pooh felt quite offended...
@@shmibbybibby7668 🍯
With CCP's "unreasonable" acts in every aspect of their own people and towards others around the world, it is only strange if HBO is still in China.
Yesterday, even ULTRAMAN is no longer available in China for avoiding kids imitating violence in that Japanese cartoon.
Do you think John Oliver sits in a room sometimes and asks himself, "What country do I never want to visit the rest of my life this week?"
jbenvenga ok but i definitely read that in his voice

eyy, john oliver also did an interview to dalai lama years ago.....
just sayin.....
Also I hope HBO is fine if China calls saying that they are cutting any economic relations with them after that AD.
china most likely wont let him to visit .

To the girl that got to say the uncensored f word on national tv and get paid for it this was probably the greatest moment of her life lol
HBO isn't part of national TV. National TV would be broadcast channels like ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, and CNN, which are legally prohibited from broadcasting profanity by the FCC. HBO is actually a premium cable program similar to STARZ, Showtime, and Cinemax. Therefore, its not bound by the regulations of the FCC, and is free to broadcast its shows in all their uncensored glory.
@@christopherregan1654 It’s legally distinct but effectively the same
Also, HBO isn't "national", because it's pretty much everywhere in europe as well.
@@maxwellqklinger ehh, not really. Abc/fox etc have to censor nudity, curse words etc
HBO can show whatever the fuck nudity they want, cussing, it's still got ratings but doesn't follow the same guidelines
"It's not TV. It's HBO."
I worked with some exchange students from China, and I brought up the Winnie The Pooh vs Xi situation and they had obviously absolutely no idea what I was talking about, so I showed them multiple examples and they thought it was the best thing they’ve ever seen about him

Propaganda. They probably had been brainwashed into them being misled into believing that bullshit.

Xi Jinping seems like the type to pretend to dislike comparisons to Winnie the Pooh so his opponents start to unconsciously associate him with a cuddly, harmless cartoon animal.

Pooh is also "a bear of very little brain", though.
@@reformCopyright exactly so that he can seem that way
12:48 I love how John added a roast for AT&T in there. 😂
I finally found it.
Fun fact: this zazu bit was done WAY before The Lion King reboot was announced so while it's fair to assume that was already in the works, it's also fair to figure he just threaded the joke needle
AT&T literally did become their parent company and John Oliver kept shit talking and criticising them. So good!
Because even AT&T are more respectable that Xi Jinping!
@@tylerbeaumont Guess they aren't that sensitive and insecure. Xi doesn't understand the Streisand effect, AT&T PR people do.
Lol if att shut down oliver on hbo he could start a new show on literally any other platform and tear them to shreds every week.
Well, when someone making fun of everything, including of himself, that puts things in various perspectives - not necessarily bad.
Jay W This comment was necessary because...?
I'm actually in China at this very moment, streaming this over a VPN, pissing myself laughing, and sharing it with my Chinese friends, who are also laughing, albeit slightly nervously.
Well done, sir. Well done indeed!

It was very annoying how every time they mentioned him it sounded like She
bravo
That last picture with the Winnie the pooh mugs was some classy last defiance
They later regret immensely of their rash decision, because the manufacturer called and explain the correct usage is to spit in, not to drink from the mugs.
Russian Panda What?
Sharpice Woods what? Whoa what?! But why?
Sharpice Woods Even if the use it to spit in, they're actually spitting on Xi Jinping lmao.
He went down swinging RIP
That lady's high laugh at 10:57 brightens my day.
revisiting this episode in the present day, I can safely say even John Oliver understated how bad Xi truly is.
But the plus is that the initial withdrawing of western factories due to covid and now the emboldenment of the west due to Russia killing itself in Ukraine means that Xi's authority on the world stage is shakier than it has been in a long time.
Can't believe you didn't use the *"That's what Xi said"* joke
hahahahhahahhahahhahahahah omg
Awesome one XD
yeah 😂
Now I see why they've been trying to ban puns in China.
Come on John Oliver, make it happen! Lol

i had autoplay on and I wasnt paying attention, i heard the crowd laughing after oliver said something and i got scared lmao
That Winnie the Pooh really tied the room together.
That was xi, it wasn't Winnie the pooh
I love how John leaned so much into the Zazu resemblance that he ended up dubbing him in the Lion King remake lol
Oh shit u right
Omg incredible 😂

Mary Rose Kent agreed
How the fuck was it ballsy.
All this shit is made my writers and approved of before airing because it appeals to the audiance, the only think this shows is that AT&T doesnt give two shits and Oliver is a studio hack.
Literally clapping seals.

+Moe Joe King If you think he's a hack, why did you watch over 12 minutes into the video.
Pls, do another episode about China and the current events
Especially with all the new Hong Kong updates and odd American Buisness practices.
Also there was a whole bunch of old fiscal policy stuff that wasn't covered like them buying tuns of gold and silver and the Russian pipe line that more information and updates on would be nice to see.
@A. S. Specially the uighurs
Social credit scores
Yes!!!! I am waiting for that too: Hong Kong or Xin Zhang...I eagerly await either. The tide is turning on Beijing.
Yes please!
this show is so good i discovered it when i was searching about the Uighurs.
Hi Last Week Tonight. I'm a social studies teacher, and I absolutely love your videos and would love to show them to my students. Would you ever consider putting out a school appropriate version of your videos, with the swear words bleeped out and some more appropriate jokes? Because this is awesome information that students need to know!!
You could make them yourself!! It is an adult comedy show but i've seen great teacher verison of history of the entire world i guess
What makes this episode remarkable is that John was able to make subtle digs to BOTH the net neutrality ruling and the AT&T-Time Warner merger in a deep dive segment that we all know can take weeks and months to produce 🤯
Carol Poblete it's not hard to make two sentences about the att and time Warner merger. So yeah.... It wouldn't take weeks nor months to write a joke about it. The celebration of mediocrity in America is the reason we are in the sorry state we are.

As a Chinese international student currently studying in U.S, I have to say the evidence shown in this video is really accurate and, subjectively saying, haunting, because even I know all of these facts from different sources, subconsciously I am just paralyzed to feel anxious enough of the changes happening in China.
I’d like to discuss some of the positive social changes not mentioned in this video before jumping into my concern of current state of China. Firstly, the infrastructure development in China is skyrocketing. Citizens of china have their style of transportation completely changed in the past several years. When I went back to China during vacations, I was stunned of how convenient living has become in China. It is objectively true that you can live in a Chinese city with no cards, no wallets, but only your phone…
Ok, the more important part…Every time in the history of China when our country becomes the strongest in the world, there would always be a wise yet powerful, authoritarian leader…no exceptions…The very idea of personality cult is rooted in our tradition, culture and, frankly saying, everything. Due to the ancient and influential filial system, Chinese are bonded together in the form of family. Every family in a tightly bonded community and most Chinese carry the duties of maintaining this community their entire lives. Personally saying, I found this iconic nature of Chinese people separates us from the western culture. Why do I want to discuss about Chinese families…well…since most Chinese are deeply concerned with their family community, living conveniently and happily is all that matters. If the leader of China can grant substantial positive changes to Chinese family communities, almost all Chinese won’t ever, ever, ever care of totalitarianism whatsoever.
It is a bit of exaggeration, but in the majority cases, what I mentioned above can be applied to Chinese people’s reasoning. Even myself is considering how to payback my parents after I finished my education, and I am 100% fine with it. This leads to my concern: what will happen next to my own country? I don’t know the answer… Chinese people won’t stop our president as long as the family communities prosper. Our president is totally determined to push the influence of China to global scale. And with it, I could only say: absolute power corrupts absolutely…This corruption of power has fallen unto all powerful Chinese leaders throughout the history. We can still pointlessly hope that our president is not traditionally powerful leader, because what else can we do? What will diverge our Chinese people’s fate to another direction instead of repeating the Chinese history repeatedly…I truly don’t know…
Benevolent Marinecat I love your profile image. I have that image myself
Also, brilliant comment
Benevolent Marinecat you’re going to have to go back once school is finished. And you’re going to be trapped. I’m so sorry.
It depends on whether I will return or not...however I am always determined to contribute what I can to my country, my people. So probably you are right, we shall see...
Thank you
I'm from the future! That Chinese woman saying she's optimistic about the future, really didn't see post-2020 China coming
_Just keep in mind that _*_China_*_ is trying to keep a lot of dark secrets hidden, but if I went there, my social credit score would plummet out of nowhere._
currently living in China and just wanted to remind people that in general Chinese people are very nice, warm people that have a lot more in common with us than they have differences. unfortunately their sources of information are heavily filtered and they don't exist in the same political climate (I.e. in America we have well defined rights to assembly, protest, etc).. just keep any animosity or anger you have aimed towards greedy politicians and well removed from the lovely people of this country.
any intelligent person in china cannot become important. so sit around and be worthless. you meaningless living thing.
Fuck off Timothy. You probably live with your parents still or work at starbucks / flipping burgers at best.
Yes, but you also have to realize there are so many ultranationalistic people in China. Look at how many people support the Nine-Dashed Line, a completely ridiculous border to take all ocean territory from Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, etc. The Chinese people are more than happy to support their nation bullying its neighbors if it means they get more rich and more powerful.
Are they as blunt as the immigrants?
Same for North Korea
I love how bored all the kids in that propaganda song look while the kids in the parody are having the time of their lives

I love that of the photos of US Presidents eating ice cream, Eisenhower looks like the ice cream bar fought against him in the Second World War and he's finally getting revenge, yet now without that hatred fueling his drive and ambition, he experiences an existential crisis mid-bite.

Well yes, that was the whole point of the segment.
Maybe a little more than the rest of us.

As a Chinese, I’m shouting there’s finally a one TV show really describe the exact situation in China now!!!!!!! And so many details are true and accurate!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!
and none of this in china. so in a way no one knows what they have to do for the best china possible.

It's curious that Disney cast John as the cartoon character he self-professes to resemble the most XD
Three years later and this is still brilliant
As a Chinese, I like this video, a lot is true when it comes to how he treats human rights. On the other hand, when is comes to international issues, the US doesn't really have a foot to stand on when it starts to point fingers
HS Xu he’s British, so it’s even worse 😂 but he’s not part of the governments. That would be like me blaming all Germans for the actions of the Nazis
HS Xu haha he is British. You know from Britain (England). Yes, of course US don’t have a ground but you don’t need a ground when you pointing at someone who also doesn’t have a ground. However, if your ground made of concrete then US happily fuck off, Russia. Also, You don’t have to say “as Chinese” because everyone’s opinion matter and yours is not more important than others just because you are Chinese.
There goes your social score...
HS Xu isn’t this illegal for you to watch ...
Rasi true true, I still visit China and have relatives there, what I wanted to say is I agree with a lot of issues he said based on what I have seen and heard in China.
“Hide your strength and Bid your time” is wise and intelligent quote that can be useful for victory in all walks of life.
‘Bide’ your time, but yeah it is a decent strategy.
However, wouldn’t it be even better if we could work together instead of all the intra-species conflict? I mean, we’re all humans, fighting over land, resources, who gets to control others, etc. Surely we’ve played this game and there are better ones to try.

Have to point out that tho ‘Xi Da Da’ actually means ‘Father Xi’
Well done, as I read the Chinese news, your show and HBO is banned in China now, so fragile Xi is.
Tim Xu No. Not because of this one. My English is not good, and I will try my best to explain it. It is all about Tibetan. About this issue, the reports shown in west countries were totally wrong
Yanfang Hu you ban it because it contradict your opinions?
well youtube is blocked so obviously -___-
Of course they ban anything that flies in the face of their state-driven narrative. Damn autocrats...
Tim Xu that's how a tyrant is born
A pretty balanced video. I've lived in China for four years now, and a lot of media reporting on the country misses the key issues. In my opinion, Xi is very concerned about keeping the middle class happy. Thankfully John doesn't overplay the "he's turning China into a police state" card which so many people in the western media often do. If he tightens the grip too much, he's going to run into trouble. The Chinese elite have always viewed the masses with fear. The analogy goes: the people are the ocean, the government is a boat. The ocean can support the boat, but if it gets riled up, it is the ocean that sinks it.
TLDR: This is pretty complicated stuff; no one knows where China is headed; John does a good job with that.
Jonathan Matthews good analogy
just for your information, the analogy was told by the famous minister Wie Zheng in Chinese history, who lived in Tang dynasty.
Fantastically said, and very true.
Are you even justified in saying this though? From my understanding, the phrase "playing the abhorrid-Orwellian-police state card" on China sounds like "playing the murdered-a-bunch-of-people card" on a serial killer, in that they're pretty much true, it doesn't take special foresight to see that, and they're also pretty goddamn significant, if not the centerpieces of the entire situation. I mean, from what I've heard it seems painfully clear-cut, so please enlighten me on the complexities that can somehow trivialize _this_ .
there are other ways to do government besides liberal democracy, and liberal democracy isn't automatically the best
Xi's power depends on a lot of other powerful people not turning on him; he has an incentive to listen to them. This sucks, of course, because if you're not threatening to the president due to being too poor or whatever, you're not gonna get heard- but, honestly, that's not really all that different from living in the US.
Man, that last 20 seconds really got the like from me.
I lived in the west of China where the Uyghur people are in 2008....I saw people being thrown out their houses at gunpoint and having them bulldozed in front of them. I hung about with some Uyghur people and was constantly being followed and pulled into police stations for questioning. I once googled Tibet and the internet went down and the police arrived at the door. Very scary place

I can't stop laughing every time John shits on AT&T
O.m.g. Why did I only discovered this episode today🤣
Well if AT&T decides to pull John I'm sure Netflix is dying to snatch him up.
He never won't have a job.
This show is destined for perpetual Emmy a-la Jon Stewart's The Daily Show. AT&T would be nuts to kill this, and if it is killed anyway, that would just mean massive pay jump for Oliver in different platform.
I wish Netflix would snatch him up. Then I could actually watch the whole show.
EVERYONE would be throwing money at him.
They’d have to go through HBO first.
So someone in China saw the episode Nosedive on Black Mirror and said that’s a great way to run a society........
Neat
I think nose dive was inspired by what was happening in China.
Well the social credit thing shouldn't be too much of a deal i'm sure, people will see it as an opportunity as a new form of business so they can be hired by people to improve their social credit score by various methods.
Sorta like how China already has a service for mobile app developers to get their product into the top 100 for more publicity. They'll just have to put some effort in to not piss the government off too much.
I think they read psycho pass and thought. "Cool"
that is exactly what i was thinking haha i miss BM
