China has decided to ban any mention of Winnie the Pooh from all of its social media platforms.

Posts that mention the Chinese name of the bear were suddenly censored on Sina Weibo, China’s version of Twitter, over the weekend.

Any attempts to post Winnie’s name on the site returns a message: ‘Content is illegal’.

And a collection of Winnie the Pooh gifs was dramatically erased from the social messaging app WeChat.

No official explanation has been given, but the crackdown is apparently related to comparisons of President Xi Jinping and the chubby fictional bear, which ended up going viral.
