I mean, imagine a reality where a bunch of humans end up using the same service like that, between two countries at odds, and they realize that they have a lot more in common than they thought possible. It could be a bridge that changes a world.

There’s a lot of users expressing as much:

Just check it out, the volume of engagement is massive enough the FYP page can get very specific and very recent.

There’s even a few Australians like “Yeah, they’re not gonna ban the app, but here’s a kangaroo”

I’ve seen chinese rednote users comparing chinese forums to 4chan and linking another source where the devs said they were working to add translation and other features to help integrate the new userbase.

Everyone I followed on tiktok said they’re going to Rednote, and my FYP on rednote is extremely active with tiktok refugees. It’s also been the number 1 app on both apple and chrome for 3 days. The users are very real.

What does the Chinese government care what I say about the American government?

What can they do to me anyway?

Except it’s owned by Xingyin Information Technology? And I didn’t see any ads on Tiktok for Rednote, just creators telling me that’s where they’re going.

Did you just make that up, or did someone lie to you?

Given that I live in America, I’d rather China controlling my apps than the American government.

He’s prepared to kill Buddha.

Why would you need 5 distros?

I could be misremembering, but I can see dbzer0 content so I guess both instances came to the same conclusion lmao.

.ml banning the dbzero admin instead of defederating will never not be funny.

“The users are fine, it’s just the admin”

People who desperately need to touch grass making memes or just straight up lying about other instances and telling everyone to block them.

You don’t work merely for your own survival under capitalism, most of your labor goes to supporting the capitalist class (and bombing foreigners to keep resources cheap so those capitalists can make even more money).

Half a century ago, working in a grocery store was enough to buy a home, raise a family, and put a kid through college. The job did not get less productive, if anything each worker produces more than ever with automation, but a greater share goes to the capitalist class, both through stagnant wages and increasing costs.

You can smuggle a rotisserie chicken under your kilt.

A German accusing queer folk of promoting degeneracy, where have I seen this before?

Damn, your dad liked a communist Muslim trans man’s policy? Sounds pretty based.

Turn it around on him, mention the deporter-in-chief’s record deportations, that even Trump didn’t beat. All the African and middle-eastern countries the patron saint of drones bombed. All the poor folk the banks gave predatory loans to that he taught personal responsibility to by letting the banks take their homes. Making a speech blaming poor outcomes in black communities on fathers not being in the picture is every racist conservative’s wet dream. It’s much harder for your dad to admit he didn’t like Obama’s policies.

Then I am confused why you would disagree with the left, that the political philosophy of capitalism, liberalism, is to blame.

A polar bear’s skin must be pretty thick to not give a shit about a baby hanging on by the claws.
