Why was this blogger Wang Gang not supposed to stream about fried egg rice around the 10th or 11th March?

One of Chairman Mao's sons was killed by an American bomb in the Korean war around the same date.

Rumours say he was spotted because he was frying eggs.

(There is no evidence to support this, but peeps that don't like communists use it anyway.)

That's not even half of it. Some people in China celebrate his death by making egg fried rice because if he didn't get killed he would have been next in line and China would have ended up with a family dynasty and been just as f*cked up as North Korea. The joke is that his death saved China from being East Korea. And honestly there is some truth to that notion and many thoughtful people here are glad he got bombed.
