What happens if keywords, like uyghur, are mentioned?

I just tried, you get cool videos about Uyghur culture

You should make an account and talk with them, it's very rewarding!

AFAIK often on Chinese services you'll get an error like "your message could not be delivered". Posts managing to discuss forbidden topics might be removed without warning, or just be silently hidden so they don't reach new people.

The goal is not so much to prevent anyone from ever talking shit about the government, but to make those conversations difficult and to stop them from reaching a wide audience.
