libs wouldn't know anything about self censorship I'm sure 😂
and not the redrawing of boundaries of acceptable thought
the platform’s algorithms prioritize content aligned with state-approved narratives while suppressing more controversial viewpoints, effectively redrawing the boundaries of acceptable thought.
Go and talk about Luigi or the genocide without self-censoring on any American platform and see how that goes.
Every post, like, and comment exists in an ecosystem designed to prioritize “core socialist values” over freedom of speech.
The reason libs think they have freedom of speech is that those who don't move don't notice their chains.
A vote for Bart is a vote for anarchy!
Every post, like, and comment exists in an ecosystem designed to prioritize “core socialist values” over freedom of speech.
Freedom of speech here is code for "freedom to turn social media into a rats nest of nazi conspiracy theory and racism."
Maybe the core socialist value of Friendship was the friends we actually made along the way
bro libs know and talk about the overton window constantly they cannot be saying this with a straight face
One of my favorite things about western exposure to Chinese social media is the realization that Chinese netizens aren't smarmy liberals yearning for American flags and apple pie. No they're by and large "tankies" just like us. If anything they're even more likely than us to ridicule and demean western nonsense than we are.
From my limited experience Chinese posters are more powerful than we can ever conceive and I'm all for it
Incredible energy
They keep fucking posting walls of text that say nothing comprehensible when translated. It’s an elite troll
The importance of this moment cannot be overstated. For the first time, millions of ordinary American workers are engaging directly with their Chinese comrades, uncovering the lies fed to them by their ruling class. This awakening is a blow to the imperialist propaganda machine and a step toward proletarian solidarity across borders.
It isn't quite yet in the millions:
Within the span of two days, more than 700,000 new users have joined Xiaohongshu, Reuters reported, citing a person close to the company. CNN has reached out to Xiaohongshu for comment.

Allowing for a day since the article was published and for Americans already set up on the platform, it's probably around a mil.
You can't draw any generalized conclusions about Chinese posters from what you anecdotally see on a social media app. The platforms are developed to curate your personal feed so it's not surprising a tankie will see primarily tankie posts just as it wouldn't be surprising if a lib got the impression that the same app was entirely filled with Chinese libs yearning for apple pie.
The platforms are developed to curate your personal feed
The thing is: Douyin and Tiktok were intentionally seperated for their domestic and foreign counterparts, in their own jurisdictions.
However, xiaohongshu, as the article points out, is fully in China's hands of jurisdiction and regulations, so unless they make seperate version for foreigners, OOF, they're not getting a lot of
Chinese libs yearning for apple pie {if by that, you mean the West, for what it reps.}.
I'm not on any Chinese social media so I don't have any personal feeds that are generalized. I'm more going off memes and videos off bilibili where there will be long explanations of Marxism with a ton of people in the comments
I run on vibes
How stupid do they think people are? You can't cry free speech when the US literally just banned TikTok lmao.
They banned /r/chapotraphouse from 
for John Brown posting.
the idea of losing control of the narrative terrifies these people to the core
Staying firmly within the existing boundaries of acceptable thought? 🧐
Redrawing the boundaries of acceptable thought? 😱
I want to know what the Chinese word is for purrito
{猫咪卷饼|maomi juanbing} kitty burrito would be my closest guess
Edit: if we were playing around too you could call it {猫饼|maobing} cat cake/biscuit which sounds like {毛病|maobing} (different tones) which means problem/fault/bug so you could make funny image macros of a purrito saying {你出了猫饼|ni chule maobing} thar plays on 'You've played/pulled out a purrito' and 'You've broken down'
Goood, goood, let the hate flow through you!!
