Peppa Pig videos banned on Chinese social media platform for the weirdest reason

Peppa Pig, the sassy anti-whistling British pig of renown, is stirring up trouble in China. She’s been dubbed a “subversive” figure associated with the gangster lifestyle of young Chinese adults, and banned from a social media platform there.

More than 30,000 videos of Peppa that used the hashtag “#PeppaPig” have reportedly been deleted from the website Douyin (“Tik Tok” in English) because, according to an internal memo obtained by CNN, Peppa was “spreading negative social influence.”
