Actually, as a Tencent stock owner... Your IP will be logged, and we will come get you for blasphemy and enemy of China. We do not tolerate such insubordination, your IP will be subpoenaed and we will imprison anyone else who speaks badly of China.

Very strange that they've let this one go. Not even a "Hey guys, cut it out" post.
I suspect a lot of GGG's lower rungs of employees actually support the message of "fuck tencent and the CCP" and when this does get inevitably locked, it'll be because someone higher up noticed and said something.
Generally speaking, New Zealand does seem like a pro-civil-rights sort of country.

A US official says tech giants Alibaba and Tencent present similar risks as Huawei
"
A US State Department official has said that tech companies Alibaba and Tencent should be seen as tools of the Chinese government, along with China’s embattled telecom giant Huawei. It raises the possibility that the US will widen its range of Chinese targets for enhanced scrutiny due to security concerns.

But I must say: Although Tencent certainly pays the CCP taxes, Tencent isn't the Chinese Government and your conflating the two isn't something you substantiated (why is Tencent culpable for the CCP's wrongdoing?).
But you're right: the re-education camps are egregious -- and that's just one of many things that the Chinese government is guilty of doing.

I love PoE, but this is beyond disgusting.
I'm pretty sure it's already well known by now, about the recent surfacing of the inhumane Camps in China and Tencent working directly with the CCP.
But now that Tencent and China is underfire, specially about the horrible Camps, I really need to ask:
GGG, will you leave Tencent?
You built PoE without them, and you never even needed them.
I was here before Tencent even was apart of your company, and I know for a fact that you didnt need them.
So with all the horrors now known to the world, from both Tencent and the CCP, why are you still with them? Did you honestly take so much of their gold, that you no longer can be independent?
I honestly feel like leaving.
As I do not want to be affiliated with a company that supports people and children being killed or forced into labor by the CCP.
Leave? Tencent owns them

As a couple of people said, in business you can't just leave. Tencent bought the shares, so the only way out is if GGG had the small fortune to actually purchase it back, which i doubt they have. I mean they have like 80% of the shares, that isn't just a bit.

I pmed a senior GGG staff and I’m surprised this thread continue to exist for these white supremacists to continue posting ignorant hate in these forums. The western world isn’t fairing well either mind you. Just look at how the US is destroying itself at the moment.
It will convert your forum titles into decorative square badges that use the space next to your forum posts more economically so that you can show off an unlimited number of them at any one time. - GGG, 2018 (https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3573673)

What is your problem anyway?
So maybe GGG thinks closing threads about Tencent given the current news is a bad look? If so they would be right. Let the community share their concern about the owners of this game.
Your not so subtle attempt to derail with other political commentary, is as obvious as it is poor.
So stop trying to be a hall monitor and believe you have ANY SAY in how GGG maintains their forums.

“Whether de facto or de jure, such giants can in some important respects or for some purposes act as arms of the state—or, more precisely, the Chinese Communist Party, to which the Chinese state apparatus is itself subordinate,” said Christopher Ashley Ford, assistant secretary of the US State Department’s bureau of international security and nonproliferation.
