In which country was Lewis Carroll's book 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' banned?
Correct answer: China
Player Anca
Well definitely animals are way above human kind! They do not start wars and do not destroy the only planet that keeps them alive ! China 👎🏻
Player #3308840
China kills all their stray animals once a year, that's why they don't want to see them as more than animals
:(Nancy E):
Well, China has always been about controlling the people. We need to be careful to work at preserving our freedom and exercising it at every opportunity.

Player #3629642, wow, isn't that true about perspective. At first, no books with animals and now China is a world of Hello Kitty! SMH.

China use animals in their medicines, so cruel
Player #15356356
Animals are way better then people. That's why I hate animal abusers. Animals are so loving.

Native Chinese here, watched Disney's Alice in wonderland on tv at the age of 8, and I found it really funny reading the question as well as some of the comments. Before saying other people are brain washed, maybe it's wise to check the facts at first. Don't let the “fake news” ruin your own judgement.

Don't believe it... one of the most popular novels in Chinese history was Journey to the West which features a talking pig and monkey.

Maybe China knew it was a story about Alice getting high, tripping on mushrooms. LOL

Player #3578978, No it is a product of Japan. First one came out in 1974. Company is Sanrio.

China is VERY uneducated upon the Animal Species smh!!!

Player #7263237, I, too, believe that before we critique anyone's culture, one must do some research. I apologize for any offensive comments.
Player #120374466
China is not very high on list on respecting human civil rights, let alone about caring for animals
Chuan
As the question stated, it "was" banned, not anymore. So does many movies in different countries. But the reason Alice was banned in China wasn't because talking animals
Lionessa
Player #3578978, Hello Kitty is Japanese...
Samuel
more likely the drug depictions than animals talking

Player Anca , no way animals are above humans. you're throwing out the baby with the bathwater. I'm not sure the reasoning explanation is sound for this question. I believe it is more about the questioning of authority
joey
Amos, didn't goofy wonder when he went to his friends Mickys house why there a member of his own species tied up and naked it the backyard
joey
Player Anca , actually chimps do band together to attack and kill other chimps groups

Reindeer

The sinophobia in so many of the comments is disturbing (and sad).
Player #91319843
pressed wrong answer because of watching 📺, hehehe
Phoenix
Player Anca , they also don't kill other than for survival, unlike some humans.

Player #3308840, They also eat domestic animals! Unbelievable, no accounting for indecency
Asa☺️
Player Anca , do you mean animals are more important than humans?
SKY
Player #3578978, ummm…Hello Kitty is of Japanese origin…🧐
Amos
Player #45303196, Did Pluto speak though? Why was Goofy an anthropomorphized character that spoke, wore clothing and walked upright, while Pluto ran around bare, on all 4 paws… aren’t they both dogs???
Amos
Colt, be honest, I would believe it just as likely if it was banned because of some dynamic involving the child Alice and the ‘Queen’ of hearts; or the very thinly-veiled references to Alice using hallucinogens….
Amos
AstonishingTuba62944, we use animal byproducts in medicines. (Look up the meaning behind the drug ‘Premarin’ for example.) Dunno if actual animals are used in any North American medications or not, but my Dad received a heart valve from an animal (Pig, I think…) when his own valve stopped functioning….
Marona
that's because they bloody eat anything that moves
The Chaser
It’s pronounced CHY-NAH

Humans *are* animals!
