I don't doubt there could be business interests or other political motivations influencing the decision, but the debate never was conventionally understood as being about stopping misinformation or censoring behaviour.

after being on rednote for 3 days now, i come to realize that we are truly living in a 3rd world country, and china is the 1st world country. they are just light years ahead of us

YOU ARENT, YOU MOTHERFUCKING RETARD! 

Holy shit!  Why the fuck you think many want to immigrate to your country? Why poor South American people risk their lives traveling the continent just to get there?

I'm asking you to employ better care with what you engage with. If the person doesn't have relevant credentials to what they're talking about, or if they aren't posting sources, or the sources they do post are bunk, then don't ask anyone else to engage with it.

As I said in the other thread:

Being attacked for the slightest perceived infraction by the rabid dogs you threw red meat to for internet points, a tale as old as time

You'd think some developers would learn to just shut the fuck up by now and not coddle the parts of their fanbase that will turn on and harass them at a moments notice

User Banned (2 weeks): Sinophobic rhetoric

Absolutely ludicrous. CCP propaganda so far exceeds American efforts it's not even remotely close. You think they'd see something like the Pentagon papers? Watergate reporting? The Snowden leaks? Abu Ghraib? Guantanamo leaks? Black Lives Matter protests? Remember that time we got that sting on Roy Moore? Or the constant "Is Biden too old" articles?

The entirety of the media there is in the direct control of the government. All the major news branches receive daily briefings from the government about points to make and how to censor forbidden topics. To even be a journalist, people need to download and go through an app about how good Xi Jingping thought is for the country, collecting their personal information while they do so. It's the largest jailor of journalists worldwide and 174 out of 180 for lowest press freedom. Even beyond the immediate press, the mere repeated mention of sensitive topics online (besides being insta-censored) might get someone thrown in jail.

To suggest that such an environment is less cultivating of propaganda than having a few notable news sources being owned by billionaires is a genuinely insane take.

It's has no place in this thread where we are talking about seeing and meeting people in another country that so far America is determined to dehumanize like they do all of their enemies. I was THE first person on this forum to make a thread of the Uyghur camps. Way before anyone even gave a shit so I know bad things happen there and the government is bad. Here is my thread from 2018! It got two pages! No one gave a shit.

The discourse here is about connecting with people so if you feel the need to bring up a "invasion of Taiwan" here then it's looks weird. If I was in another country and a person was using Meta I wouldn't say "you use that even though America just did a genocide in Gaza?" There is a time an place for those discussions but this thread is about humans connecting.

First of all I don't think America wants to dehumanize the Chinese people, but the Chinese government is not our friend.

Otherwise ok, I can maybe see the argument that the comment didn't have a place in this thread and this specific discussion, but how is it sinophobic? Doesn't Sinophobia refer to feelings about the Chinese people? Or is it applicable to the Chinese government as well?

All of the admins are pro dictatorships. There is nothing anybody can do to prevent it. It’s pointless to even converse with them. PoliEra exists for the commies to belittle them, and ban them.

Killing Chinese Arabs for the sake of communism was okay. A country fighting back against violence upon them is a no no.

I am enjoying the reveal but seriously people just need to stop hating on other people just because everyone don't enjoy Kart 8 all the same. Not everyone has to look at that game all the same. Everyone has varying tastes in games and it's sad that some people don't seem to understand that.

I was wondering what fucking trolling and misgendering they were talking about, but his earlier posts shed some light:

Let me ask you this question and hopefully as an Liberal American, that you’d understand this:

Is Deluxe a new game for Switch 2?
No? Then Kart 9/10 (Let’s call that for now) is a completely new game with a fresh new start for everyone.
Ergo, new experience for me to come back to Kart without feeling I have to feel being competitive since I have bad memories from 8 Deluxe.

Savvy now? If you can‘t understand then I can’t help you there chief.

Nope, if I was trolling, I wouldn't have told you a true story. Do you even know the difference between telling you how I feel about 8 Deluxe and me trying to insult you? Do you realize that you are behaving EXACTLY like these weirdos by telling me that I HAVE to play the game? Do you even realize what you're doing to me is wrong and not a good reinforcement of good mental health?

Guess remedial reading wasn't in your curriculum. I mentioned at least few posts ago that I was only trying to add people to my friend code list SOLELY to play with on MK8D. How difficult is that for you to understand? I could play with people now but here's the thing. It seems to me that now no one is interested in exchanging FC these days.

It's people like you, sir who can't seem to read and understand what I am trying to explain to you is the reason why as An American, that I weep for my country.

what i dont understand about folks constantly complaining about the anti-woke/chud crowd; how are you so exposed to that type of content? i swear for every chud i happen to see on the internet there are like a dozen people i see talking about them.

you have the power to filter these people out of your life.

Chuds have over taken most of social media, and not amount of filtering is going to magically stop the chuds from harassing developers and sending them death threats on a daily basis

One of my pet peeves aside from Eddie being a bold-faced liar about his martial arts ability is that he claims to be this this smarty pants archaeologist guy. But he copy pastes articles and then never engages in them when people have questions. He finally responds in one of his threads with two articles that don't even answer the question he's asking and it's the most bare bones shit imaginable. There's no way this guy has a degree in history. Or it's from some bullshit Egyptian community college.

I think this is part of why this migration from US TikTok to Rednote and the ensuing cultural exchange is so wholesome. The people migrating over are more genuine and open to learning about the app and its users, treating Chinese netizens as normal people who can help them navigate the new app, and engaging in shared interests. Instead of it being a bunch of assholes jumping on to the app and screaming "Free Taiwan" or "Uyghur camps" which would just a be a firestorm of atrocity Olympics.

It would also be very rude to join into a new app and then immediately make it more difficult for Chinese users if westerners were all over the app shitting up the place and then the whole app has to go in crisis mode.

"Can you talk about Taiwan on Rednote?"
"Well that would be an asshole move, now wouldn't it!"

It's an app where middle class women share their outfits, makeup tips, photo locations and hobbies. Political discussion in general is not allowed. But even if it is, why would you go to what is essentially r/beauty to talk about politics? Is there really nothing else about a country with a billion plus people that interests you?

Jesus christ. "It's a silly beauty and makeup app, why make it about politics folks? No need to talk about that yucky stuff."

What was the rationale for defending TikTok again...something something leftist thought, something something government censorship...I can't even remember, it was probably silly anyway.

"It's a silly video game forum. Why make it about politics folks?"
