Americans are joining the Chinese social media app en masse to protest an imminent TikTok ban.

  • American users have flocked to Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu in defiance of security warnings.
  • Chinese and American users have engaged in surprisingly friendly conversations about each other’s lives.
  • The influx of American users could burden Xiaohongshu’s censorship mechanism, experts say.

    There have been multiple studies that have demonstrated that pro-CCP content outweighs anti-CCP content by at least 3 to 1. Even on profiles that prefer anti-CCP content the pro content still gets suggested at a 3 to 1 ratio.

      Surely you’d be willing to share those studies then? Because the only one I’ve seen was NCRI who didn’t make that claim and are hilariously biased.

        No. I’m not doing research for you. Even if I did, we both know you’d either dismiss it or ignore it. I’m a nobody to you and you’re already biased against what I have to say.

        We won’t see eye to eye on this. We simply won’t agree. It would just be a waste of my time.

          I’m not asking you to do research. I’m asking you to show research you’ve presumably already done.

            I don’t keep links to things I’ve read over the years. You really think I have a folder on my desktop labelled “CCP Propaganda Proof” with various docs and links?
