 If it is ever proven that those people are directly supported by the Chinese government, their nationalities should be revoked.

-Some of them, especially the ones that speak Chinese, might be just idiots trying to intentionally milk views though, without any Government links.
+The problem however is that it is impossible to distinguish between:

-Part of Ciro feels like their nationalities should also be revoked, since they are making a living out of helping an Evil government.
+* idiots who are saying what the CCP supporters want to hear from foreigners to get more views
+* even bigger idiots who actually believe the CCP is good
+* if any of those are directly supported by the CCP or not. Ciro feels that more likely not, because that would be too risky.

-But likely we won't ever be able to distinguish those who really think that way or are just trying to get more views, so it is hard to stopping them without quenching freedom of expression in that case. Related discussion at: <<what-should-western-countries-do-about-china>>.
+  As those channels grow however, the CCP is extremelly very likely to at least indirectly support the channel, e.g. with bots on YouTube or more direct means on Chinese Government Chinese Internet companies, as a way of indirectly paying those creators.
