The episode in question is said to contain, according to Consequence of Sound:
“Band in China” features two different plots, both of which criticized China. The first follows Randy as he tries to sell weed in China, gets caught, and is sent to a work camp akin to the ones Beijing uses to hold Chinese Muslims for political indoctrination.
In the 300th episode of the controversial animated production, entitled ‘SHOTS!!!’ Towelie forces Randy Marsh to shout ‘F**k the Chinese Government.’
