TL;DR Summary

Taiwanese air force pilots are wearing patches depicting a Formosan black bear punching Winnie the Pooh, representing Chinese President Xi Jinping, as a symbol of resistance to China's military drills around Taiwan. The patches, designed by Alec Hsu, have seen a spike in orders since Taiwan's military news agency published a photo of a pilot wearing it. While China claims Taiwan as its own territory, Taiwan's government rejects China's sovereignty claims. The Winnie the Pooh patch cannot be found on Chinese social media, but Beijing has been promoting videos and commentary about its drills around Taiwan.
