It's also a huge propaganda opportunity to influence the distribution of groupthink.

So much that you can instantly tell if a model is Chinese by asking it about Tiananmen Square.

I just did a quick test between DeepSeek 4.1 Flash, GLM 5.3, and Kimi K3

- GLM 5.3 acknowledges it and talks about it, even acknowledging the censorship of it.

- K3 will talk about it similarly to GLM.
