Jokes
This rip is another video criticizing Blizzard Entertainment's censorship of a pro-Hong Kong protestor and public reaction to it.

The content itself featured isn't focused on the protests of Hong Kong nor gives an opinion on it, but what is present is a satirical usage of Chinese censorship and propaganda referring to the current state of Blizzard. Despite being a Western company, Blizzard has to follow Chinese policies due to their playerbase and Tencent stock.

The rip begins with a scene from the Overwatch 2 cinematic trailer in which the character Winston is about to be saved from a blast from a giant robot. In the original trailer, another character named Genji deflects the bullet with his sword; here, however, scenes from the film Christopher Robin (a live action film based on the Winnie the Pooh children's books) replace Genji's appearances. A clip of a man dressed as Winnie the Pooh at a batting cage briefly appears after the robot shoots the blast, implying that Winnie the Pooh deflected the blast with his baseball bat. The Overwatch 2 scene continues with the Chinese character Mei looking to Winston's savior, Winnie the Pooh.

The scene fades to black with the text "Blizzard Entertainment presents" before transitioning to gameplay from a Japanese port of  featuring Winnie the Pooh stepping up to bat. A "Double Boost" X prompt appears on screen a la , except the opening drum beat of "Fist Bump" is replaced with a portion of "I Love Beijing Tiananmen"; the inclusion of this song is likely a reference to the game Hong Kong 97 where it infamously appeared, indirectly referring to the Hong Kong protests.

At 0:46, the rip becomes a mashup of "Fist Bump" and the audio of a Chinese propaganda video, which is also displayed onscreen. In addition, a cappella clips from "I Love Beijing Tiananmen", vocal clips from Mei, and the song "China" by Anuel AA can be very faintly heard. At 0:46, the "Fist Bump" lyrics, "Standing united after the [fight]" are cut with a man saying "light political turmoil". For context, the government's official name for the Tiananmen Square Protests was "Political turmoil between the Spring and Summer of 1989."

After this cut, the "Fist Bump" lyrics are sentence-mixed to "sing" the lyrics of "Love Me Long Time" by Dizaster, a song that plays on Chinese stereotypes. At 0:52, a clip from AVGN's review of Hong Kong 97 ("A herd of ugly fucking reds?!", referring to communists) is heard to create a lyric with the "Fist Bump" lyric "are holding the key". A clip from "GO MY WAY!!" is briefly heard afterwards as the mashup continues. The next lyric is changed to "We see today, a Hong Kong we couldn't see. Before I say goodbye to you, one more last Wonton." which is is both a mention to the inherent relation of the rip to the present-day protests, and a way of continuing Dizaster's lyrics.

As the chorus ends, Soldier 76 finds graffiti saying "Please take gay off" signed by "Xi 'Big Daddy' Jinping". This is referring to the lack of gay Overwatch characters in China, having them all be straight including those gay in Western territory, and "Big Daddy" being a nickname formerly given by official government media to Xi. "Great Leap Forward" appears on screen, a Chinese movement that ended in utter failure: this is compared to that of Blizzard's full attempted leap to E-Sports, which ended in controversy and playerbase decay in their own territory.

A picture of Ma Huateng, founder and current CEO of Tencent, appears on screen as the Discord call sound effect rings in the background (referring to Tencent's stock in Discord, too.)

After the chorus line, the instrumental break features a clip of Brother Hao performing "Without the Communist Party, There'd be no New China". Text and an Overwatch logo is overlayed over this clip (and remaining until "Fist Bump" ends) suggesting that Blizzard's "credit score" (a reference to the Chinese "social credit" system) is increasing, and even ready to "level up".

After this, "POP/STARS" from  is added to the mashup, since League of Legends is a property of Riot Games and, subsequently, fully under Tencent's control. The visuals return to the Chinese propaganda, but now footage of Blizzcon 2018's Q&A panel is also being incorporated, and at the end we can also see Blizzard's logo and two clips of the pivotal moment in "Snowmobile Accident" where the man falls off the snowmobile. The first line from "I Love Beijing Tiananmen" is added to the mashup right as the music ends.

After all that is over, the final part of this rip begins, again showing a clip from Blizzcon 2018's Q&A panel, but this time with audio. The asker's original question ("Is this an out-of-season April Fools' joke?") is dubbed over with "Is this an out-of-season June 4th joke?". This references the Tiananmen Square massacre, which occurred on June 4, 1989, but is still heavily censored by the Chinese government, who deny its existence and even censor phrases related to June 4th.

In the final second, the video fades to a fake in-company advertisement, referencing Blizzard's use of $1 gift cards for their employees for health. This is in exchange for logging in a health tracking app. It also references the internet's already exploited usage of the Blizzard/China joke, with the title of the card "Sick of the joke?"

Lyrics
Together we can show the world what we can do You are next to me and I'm next to you Push me on through until the battle's won No one's gonna give a thing to us Into each other we put our trust Standing United After the light political turmoil

Mother love me long time long time Sucky sucky fucky fucky wonton A herd of fuckin' ugly reds are holding the key We see today, a Hong Kong we couldn't see Before I say goodbye to you, one more last Wonton...

''Is anybody there? I don't wanna lose this battle with Dizaster...''

We're so tough, not scared to show you up Can you feel the rush now? (feel the rush now?) Ain't nobody bringing us down! (down, down, down, down, down) 我爱北京天安门 You can try but we're gonna wear the crown 天安门上太阳升 You can go another—go another—go another—go another round.

''Hello, I was just wondering... is this an out-of-season June 4th joke?''

Trivia

 * "The channel description is currently under maintenance" refers to the hundreds of Chinese websites forced to shut down or prevent real user access around the date of the Tiananmen Protests anniversary, usually claiming they're "under maintenance".
 * The "composer"'s name, Shengda Baba, was a usual placeholder title for SiIvaGunner tracks in 2016, but it also takes on another meaning given the rip's subject matter.
 * One of the "platforms" listed in the description, PolyStation 4, references the PolyStation, a Chinese Famiclone modeled on the PlayStation.
 * This joke is also present in the description for "Victory Theme - Overwatch 2".
