In deleting an Instagram post that is offensive to the Chinese government’s sensibilities, and apologizing for posting it, Kodak has basically promised Beijing that it will “learn, grow, and do better.”
The US company issued a statement after removing content by photographer Patrick Wack – who described the Xinjiang region that is home to the Uyghur minority as “an Orwellian dystopia” – saying they don’t endorse or share the Frenchman’s views.
Kodak had shared ten photos by Wack shot on the film it produces, in order to promote his book, which aims to visually present the way Xinjiang has been, in his words, abruptly descending into an Orwellian dystopia.
Kodak also apologized “for any misunderstanding or offense the post may have caused” and stressed that the purpose of its Instagram page is to promote creativity rather than dabble in politics.
However, some reports out of Hong Kong say that Kodak issued another statement – this one crafted for the Chinese public and published on the Chinese social media giant WeChat.

F the chinks sensibility’s
Sic kening.
Another once good company bites the CCP dust.
Crap companies use CCP inferior products and kill in the process!
Yes, the CCP has ZERO QUALITY CONTROL.
They have killed our people with tainted drugs and our animals with tainted “food products.”
It used to be a joke when I was a kid-do NOT buy any toys made in China.
They were unsafe!
Didn’t people learn their lesson back then?
NO. Apparently NOT.
Companies don’t care if they use cheap Chinese labor.
They are greedy and will trade moral integrity for money.
May we see the photos and disseminate them further, please?
Just like companies went out of their way not to offend the Nazis in the 1930s.
Evidently, Kodak revers China’s feelings more that those of us here in the US. I will be looking up to see if there’s anything Kodak produces that I might be buying, as that will stop now.
You got that right, I expect that sooner than later something will hit the fan as this crap just can not keep on going on and on, and it will not be pretty.
Can't have any truth getting out...right, Kodak?

Kodak is fine with the CCP’s concentration camps. Despicable behavior. I guess Kodak is just going back to its roots. It collaborated with the Nazis and used slave labor.

Yet another indicator of the extreme decay our Country is suffering.

Hey, Kodak, don’t look now, but it looks like you got a little something on your chin…
Xi’s scrotum.
You got it! There is no difference between Nazi Germany under Hitler and Red China today under Xi except where they are located.
Just what I was thinking....what the hell do they do???
