I went to check out that thread, and holy shit do I fucking hate chauvinistic Western anti-China liberals AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

And hostile to whom? As a European, I'm subjected to the same bullshit from the US.

maybe-later-honey The environment, for one.

Several lawmakers said publicly last summer you can search it, pro-Palestinian content was WHY tiktok was being banned — the threat to them is people waking up from WITHIN, and they’re counting on the average U.S. audience’s Sinophobia for people to believe chinas the reason.

maybe-later-honey Lmfao yes it’s a threat when an algo run by china can affect public opinion in the US, yes.

Yep. Saw quite a few "life as an office worker in china" type videos and more than one showed 2 hour lunch breaks. Not to mention the grocery hauls, explanation about how they're not paying property tax and their home is theirs, cheap luxury cars that far outmatched western ones, etc. Us westerners are learning what life could be like if govt cared about its people.

maybe-later-honey you fell for the chinese propaganda, hook line and sinker if you think that’s at all representative of the average chinese worker. Please think for yourself, and don’t let a chinese propaganda app do it for you

I think you'd be surprised about how much the user base of red note would agree with this sub. I regularly see Chinese netizen ask why Americans put up with such a broken system, why we haven't revolted. We have been fed a lot of propaganda about the people of China.

maybe-later-honey They want you to revolt not because we are in solidarity with you, but because it would be easier to beat your ass should one day come to it… not saying that you shouldn’t revolt, but how naive of you to think we actually support you or something lol

I guess being Chinese doesn't prevent you from saying stupid shit

The environment, for one.

THE BLOODY US GOVERNMENT IS AT LEAST 100 TIMES MORE HOSTILE TO THE ENVIRONMENT THAN CHINA, WHO THE FUCK LET OIL COMPANIES GET AWAY WITH PUSHING CLIMATE CHANGE DENIAL PROPAGANDA FOR DECADES?!?!? CHINA IS ONE OF THE WORLD'S LARGEST PRODUCERS OF ELECTRIC VEHICLES AND SOLAR TECH WHILE THE STUPID FUCKING COMMANDER IN CHIEF OF THE US JUST PULLED OUT OF THE PARIS CLIMATE AGREEMENT. GOD FUCKING DAMN IT.

Every estimate of the environmental damage of the oil and gas industry in America has been incredibly underestimating of stray emissions, wells that have broken free of their caps, oil leaks, water contamination, etc.

I just want to rub their nose in this until they understand the irony here

THE EBIL GOMMINISTS WANT YOU TO DO THE THING THAT YOU SHOULD BE DOING ANYWAY OUT OF A PERFIDIOUS YEN FOR YOUR DESTRUCTION

Gonna go start a fight club on RedNote so I can witness this lust for violence first hand.

Lmfao yes it’s a threat when an algo run by china can affect public opinion in the US, yes.

The US or affiliated tech companies would never.

The worst part is that it is representative of the average Chinese worker. There are places where people work long hours and stay in company housing, but that is not at all indicative of the majority of the people. And even then, the people who do those jobs are doing them temporarily (an average of 2-3 years) so they can then afford not to, once they have purchased a home in a smaller city (which is still incredibly modern by U.S. standards). Hell some are doing it to purchase second or third homes as investment properties (which is a bad idea, but hey, at least they can).

You know why we know this? Outside of anecdotal and even verifiable statistical evidence that this is the case, it is because polling shows overwhelming approval for their government.

That last one hurt my brain so bad I had to step in. I'm the one who brought up his posting history where he defends Isntrael.

Most of the Chinese on xhs that I have seen discussion racism they experience when traveling or being students in the west have been pointing this out
