Kiki and Bubu: neo-Marxist sock puppets join dating service, get friended by China, get taken down from YouTube


Johannes sez,

Unbelievable, but Kiki and Bubu are back!
When we created the first couple of episodes for Boing Boing TV in 2008, who would have thought that the two wooly Neo-Marxist fellows would still be around in 2012?
Well, they are! Here is their newest and most epic (50 minutes!) puppet extravaganza!

Story?
Our favorite sock puppets Kiki and Bubu have some feelings, so they sign up for an online dating site. When the People of China want to become their friend, they are excited. However, sending the People of China a video of themselves proves to be difficult: Their content gets flagged as inappropriate and taken down from YouTube. On the long quest for knowledge which follows, Kiki and Bubu learn all about Internet censorship. And love.
