People in China are burning the shirts of France and Real Madrid footballer Mbappe and tearing down his posters after he called Mao Zedong a "Chinese tyrant". Previously, Chinese television stopped showing Spanish La Liga matches, and all Chinese companies that had advertising and marketing contracts with Mbappe canceled them. The reason was a segment of an interview where Mbappe was asked about his favorite meme about himself, and he answered that the one that makes him laugh the most is a picture where his face is placed on "one guy - I think he's a Chinese dictator". And he added that he often uses it in correspondence with friends.
