I’m amazed at all the CCP dick sucking here. It’s like I stumbled into r/Sino

Yea, I made a post to my people to come to the fediverse. While we have capitalist and communist forums, ultimately the fediverse sits in the anarchist camp.
I like it because I'm suspicious of tankies and hate musk fucks. A nice 3rd option.
That backfired real good, didn't it?
Turns out we know we're all being spyed on constantly and don't really care what authoritarian shithole (US or China) is creeping on us
We care more about the content of the app.

This might have an interesting side effect. Western voices and opinions being shared enmasse with Chinese youths on platforms they're comfortable with. It will be interesting to see how the Chinese government responds to this
It will be interesting to see how the ~~Chinese~~ US government responds to this
That's easy. Some more propaganda about hating the everyday Chinese person (who we have far more in common with) and banning the app.
I'm on the app and, honestly, I have been seeing the exact opposite. Loads of American users are seeing, for the first time, that folks in the PRC don't have it so bad.
Consistent problem with fascists who want you to hate outsiders. When those barriers fall, it turns out that most of the "enemy" are just people who want to live their lives.
This goes both directions.
But the Chinese people were never the enemy. The only ones who push that narrative are people who want to sow division and hatred.
It's the CCP and US government that are at odds with one another. The issue with TikTok is the CCP has control and influence over content served to Western uses.
This. There is a reason why China has been censoring the internet so much, and why Russia and to a lesser degree Türkiye started doing it as well. And why two of the three most powerful people in the US apart from Trump control like 2/3 of all social media.
Yeah, that's my point.
Ah, ok. I thought you were saying the other thing.

I thought the difference in humor would take a while to bridge but it's very familiar. Day in the life of an american type videos with road rage, burgers, shitcoins, podcasts and pancakes
Good for them. People should be free to live their lives.
