If you talk about being pro western, Douban should be the most extreme. Anything produced by Korean and Hollywood will be praised to death there while produced by Chinese is a negative factor.

Oh man oh man, this 斩杀线 thing is making such big wave that American media are now noticing. They agree it is in fact real because that allows them to use it as a weapon against Trump:

My favorite cope from the Chinese libs is that rural Chinese peasants commit suicide too when they get cancer because they don’t want to inconvenience the family. Basically they admitted that being a healthy unemployed person in the U.S. is the same as being elderly cancer patient in rural China.

The biggest shock this incident has to ordinary Chinese people is that many in the US have taken the "kill line" phenomenon for granted. What's even more unacceptable is that many Chinese Americans are still trying to justify it.
Most Chinese Americans have at least been influenced by traditional Chinese culture, and they shouldn't be so indifferent to human life. Even Americans haven't tried to cover up these phenomena, yet these Chinese Americans are still trying to justify them. They are more disappointing than ordinary Americans; they are not only numb but have become evil!
Also it is dumb that they are using this as a tool to denigrate Trump when the phenomenon exists under Biden and previous democrat presidents as well. It is institutional.
They have to justify/defend their choice of moving to the US.
That's one of the reason why the Cthulhu/40k metaphor for American style capitalism is so effective here. If you have already witnessed with your own eyes eldritch beings than you've been changed and all the infernal visage you see are just 'normal'.
It's also why people make those cutsy touhou pictures of events that Alex talked about. If you aren't aware of the context behind them then they look just like cute drawings but if you're in the know then you realize they depict shocking events.
Speaking of censorship, I recently watched Ling Cage both seasons and implore everyone to check it out, it is not just one of the best Donghuas, but best animations I've seen period.
But what the hell, is censorship at least with Donghua still a thing in China? Forget blood in Nezha or TBHX, Ling Cage has like a Game of Thrones level body count, people being dismembered, and flattened into paste in graphic detail that not even Attack on Titan portrayed.

If China's cultural content still operates under a strict censorship system, I'm begging them to rigorously review works involving historical subjects. The recent films 749 and 731 originally held immense potential in their themes—749 could have crafted a fantasy urban universe blending the Chinese Communist Party's official narrative with local mythology, while 731 could have exposed Japan's darkest war crimes against humanity during the last century. Instead, both films turned out to be utter trash, not only ruining the works themselves but also dampening enthusiasm for similar projects—much like the “New Three Kingdoms” series over a decade ago, which is now widely mocked across Chinese internet forums. I'd wager that if the Chinese government had applied the same level of scrutiny to these newly produced historical films as it did to the “Classic Three Kingdoms” and “Classic Journey to the West” adaptations, they wouldn't have ended up as the monstrosities they are today.
Well known phenomenon kind of like being more catholic than the pope. Those Chinese Americans try to validate it by becoming harder believer in the American system than Americans.
