When two dating apps, Blued and Finka, disappeared from the Apple AppStore in China on November 11, a whole world threatened to disappear.
The apps are two of the most popular among China’s LGBT+ community. Blued had been downloaded tens of millions of times, according to the BBC.
In taking them down, the authorities removed two major LGBT+ spaces, leaving little in their place.
Apple said it removed the apps “based on an order from the Cyberspace Administration of China”.
Evidence of hardening attitudes towards the LGBT+ community in China has been increasing for some time.
Before targeting Blued and Finka, the Chinese authorities led a campaign against authors of the “Boy's Love”, or Danmei, same-sex romance stories, some of which feature explicit love scenes between men.
Several Danmei writers, most of whom are female, have reported being arrested and questioned by the authorities, and in recent months two major Danmei sites have either shut down, or drastically reduced and toned down their content.
For a long time, China adopted a policy of Three No’s towards homosexuality: no approval, no disapproval and no promotion.
This allowed for a period of “good years in the 2000s where more people were openly gay", says Timothy Hildebrandt, specialist in social politics and sexuality in China at the London School of Economics.
Today, “officially, those Three No’s are still in place, but we are seeing evidence that the space for LGBT+ communities is starting to shrink”, says Marc Lanteigne, associate professor of political science at the Arctic University of Norway.

China is much smarter than us in the United States of Sodom. This move may save them from God’s judgment

That’s like “don’t ask, don’t tell.”
Yeah, the forced organ harvesting gets a gold star too.
So he’ll just overlook the mass infanticide and forced abortions.
Oh my, the country our former boy king expressed admiration for.
” This move may save them from God’s judgment”
The crackdown on Christianity not withstanding
Freedom of speech and expression are overrated and perhaps outdated. Government suppression of certain unnatural norms are a necessary thing today in way that 18th century wig-heads would never have imagined, as great as those men were.
I’ve seen several estimates that China’s real population may be between 400-800 million. Every part of their government at every level is incentivized to lie about how many children they have because the number affects how much money they get from the central government. But data like electrical use and lights showing at night as seen from satellites indicates that China is shrinking at a fantastic rate. So outlawing things that don’t lead to having children seems logical. The reason the Western world doesn’t do that is we have more personal freedom, and nobody sees the problem of a shrinking population as it will only hit hard enough to notice decades from now. When, by-the-way it will be impossible to address.
Oh, and nobody wants to deal with purple-haired, nose-ring wearing crazies. My sister was mentally ill. So, anything could become a screaming fight where she’d rather die than lose. My parents were tired of dealing with her, so she always got her way. It wasn’t good for any of us, but it left me with understanding of how the alphabet people always win. Nobody wants to put up with their tantrums.
Crackdown on Christianity is right wing propaganda.
That's plain silly. The Chinese Communists are as anti-God as it gets.
However they are not trying to exterminate own people like Western ruling classes.
Yeah right. They threw Muslims into concentration camps.
Protecting their children from sodomites will save the country in more ways than one.
A TIDBIT REGARDING “A POSSIBLE NEW HIRE”:
IF YOU ARE GETTING A REFERENCE ON A POSSIBLE HIRE FROM PRIOR EMPLOYER, THERE ARE MANY THINGS THE LAWS SAY CANNOT BE TOLD.
HOWEVER: THIS QUESTION ANSWERS IT ALL:
“IS THAT EMPLOYEE ELIGIBLE FOR RE-HIRE”???
IF THE ANSWER IS NO——YOU KNOW ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW.
You could perhaps quote your official numbers of Chinese electricity consumption you say is in decline?
AI: China’s electricity consumption has shown significant growth over the past two decades, reflecting its rapid industrialization and economic development. In 2000, annual electricity consumption was 1.014 TeraWh.
According to Enerdata, electricity consumption in China reached 8,990 TWh in 2024, reflecting an average annual growth rate of around 7% since 2010.
In July 2025, China’s electricity consumption hit a historic milestone, reaching 10.02 Terawatt-hours, an 8.6% year-on-year increase, driven by extreme heat waves, industrial production, and rising household demand.
That’s sarcasm, correct?
The eligible for rehire question is legal. The majority, now vast majority, of former employers who are being queried about a professional or executive level employee will ABSOLUTELY refuse to answer. It is the obviously safest path for them to take. You get time employed info about a candidate, final salary, usually no bonus or commission info or anything else. At executive levels candidates are usually well known already.
For lower level employees, the eligibility question gets fuzzy. An employee who left voluntarily may have been bought out in a downsize and in that case that employee is NOT eligible for rehire — and for competitive reasons the company’s HR department will be instructed not to disclose that they are downsizing headcount to anyone, so the answer will be ineligible to rehire and VERY often nothing more said. The candidate can explain, and even show the buyout deposit in their checking acct, but you can believe or not believe as you wish. HR knows all about this stuff. The eligible question gets asked but not weighted hardly at all nowadays.
Another common item is an employee is in training, and has not completed training when they get informed they will not be provided the position promised at start of training. They leave immediately. And are ineligible for rehire, after doing nothing particularly wrong. In fact, when a candidate was somewhere for only a few weeks, they will report it as a training course rather than employment. Or not at all.
The eligible question, for reasons of lawbreaking . . . that will show in the background check without the eligible question meaning anything.
So, HR dealing with candidates can ask this question, but it’s not even remotely definitive.
So when do the “Queers for Peking” riots start? Can we load up a bunch of protesters from Portland and send them over there to riot and cause problems?
China gets it. They know it harms society. Of course they are more than happy to allow it for their enemy countries.
