Why do Xu Xiaodong and Ma Baoguo behave differently?

Xu Xiaodong and Ma Baoguo are both public figures in Chinese mainland, but their social background, speech content and influence are different, which may be the reason why they are treated differently.

First of all, Xu Xiaodong posted some remarks on the Internet that were suspected of violating laws, regulations and moral bottom line, which aroused widespread concern and criticism. Although Ma Baoguo has also made controversial remarks, his main activity area is martial arts teaching. He didn't directly challenge the political system or spread bad information like Xu Xiaodong.

Secondly, Chinese mainland has a strict public opinion control mechanism, and it has become normal to suppress and ban accounts of individuals or organizations who make "sensitive" remarks or violate relevant regulations. Because of the different environment and influence of two public figures, they may be treated similarly in different ways.

Finally, it should be pointed out that we should respect laws and regulations, abide by social ethics and pay attention to the influence of our words and deeds on society.
