WeChat, the country’s most popular instant-messaging platform, is strictly censored by the Chinese government. But people are currently free to share their anger toward the U.S. administration—and, in particular, toward President Donald Trump—amid ongoing trade-war tensions between the two countries.

Talking point: With more than one billion monthly active users, WeChat is the most dominant social networking platform in the country. As recently as this summer, Chinese state media was told to “soften criticism” of the Trump administration, as the two countries were trying to avoid a trade war. That relationship has now changed, and the censors have followed accordingly. China often permits negative sentiment toward foreign countries when it’s politically useful—when China and Japan had tension, for example, the former allowed citizens to boycott Japanese goods.
