in the past ten years, human flesh searching most often targets those perceived to make anti-nationalist comments.

i'll agree that it's questionable if it has state backing but i completely missed your claim that doxxing campaigns are the result of the government. unfortunately my honest reaction to that is "huh‽"

March 2006

March 2006 was a much more liberalized time.

you just don't find these kinds of firebrand figures anywhere in the mainstream

well yeah, because there are no mainstream politics in china that are not local. instead, they do non–party-threatening punditry. i'm talking people like zhang xuefeng and yuan tengfei (note that despite impressions some outdated reports might give, zhang xuefeng was only temporarily suspended, which well carlson has been too.), or hardcore hardcore domestic tankies like guyanmuchan.

Is there any actual evidence of this?

Chinese social media platforms have tried to rein in online nationalists by periodically suspending their accounts.

Well-known nationalist influencers Sima Nan and Guyanmuchan have been censored without warning. So was the blogger who tried to sue Mo Yan, whose lawsuit was also rejected by the courts.

One vlogger, who shot to notoriety this year after he posted a video accusing a shopping mall of putting up decorations that resembled the Japanese flag, was similarly shut down. A scathing state media commentary denounced his video as “a malicious report that rides on the online traffic of patriotism”.

:-/

Again, that doesn't seem to be the case. These influencers are consistently at odds with state media and censors.

seems to be still up: https://space.bilibili.com/19248926 again, it is normal for tucker carlson and alex jones to be occasionally suspended
