Incredible bag fumbling on the USA's part. Total Chinese Cultural victory, Alpha Centauri launch by end of year.

"As the Americans learned so painfully in Earth's final century, free flow of information is the only safeguard against tyranny. The once-chained people whose leaders at last lose their grip on information flow will soon burst with freedom and vitality, but the free nation gradually constricting its grip on public discourse has begun its rapid slide into despotism. Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master."

-Commissioner Pravin Lal, "U.N. Declaration of Rights"

Aren't they just going to ban this one, too next?

these dweebs are voraciously taking brando sanderson international

and then, i saw this one american woman just frankly being so fucking cringe and annoying. she had her phone held up so you could only see the top half of her face and head, looking like the mf las vegas dome, doing a super exaggeration yelling laugh immediately as the video starts playing, yelling "GUYS!!!!!". then she did the yell/laugh thing through her whole video, and i was just like damn, this person is very unpleasant.

That's like half of TikTok. I don't know why so many people decide to take video of their foreheads while their microphone peaks trying to pick up whatever background audio they're trying to record a live reaction to.

Hopefully the horny posters will get banned lol. Yeah unfortunately there is going to be a lot of cringe that comes with this whole thing.

You should cyberbully her.

You're probably a decent person and the algorithm put you in a bubble.

I asked on my group chat if people were thinking of switching over to xiaohongshu and received a response "why, so a Chinese steals my social security number?"

I think we still have a long way to go with this whole racism thing.

You're very fortunate. Sinophobia is 'baked into the cake' as it were where I live. Chinese people are depicted as childlike, unscrupulous and brainwashed all at once as though they are 'programmed' by the CCP (CPC) to be spies for the country or rabid nationalists while still being shielded from the rest of the world behind the Great Firewall. Any basic normal day-to-day stuff, if done by a Chinese person, is instantly suspicious. Posting cute panda videos? It's an insidious SoFt PoWeR pUsh. Buying infant formula? It's China flexing its economic might to deprive western babies of nutrition. Highly coordinated dance? It's brutal training to quash individualism (unless ofc its shenyun in which case it's 4000 years of esoteric tradition and majesty...). Chinese people cannot exist or act in the west without being seen through the lense of the yellow peril.

I dunno what feed you mean because most westerners think China is an authoritarian dictatorship. There are a lot of people that won't touch anything owned by Tencent simply because it's Chinese. Youtube is flooded by social credit score and Winnie the Pooh Xi jokes. Outside of the internet the mainstream News is constantly harping on the "China Threat" and how it's a threat to democracy. Those are just a handful of examples off the top of my head but even small stuff like all through my working life I've had co-workers used communism and Chinese as shorthand for bad. "Made in China" for example is shorthand for "badly made" when Westerners say it.

considering "it's chinese" is liberal for "it's bad", yeah I would say so

They think of them as scheming hordes incapable of independent thought or creativity.
