    They recently added new translation features. I don’t think it’s going to happen.

        Ashley Belanger May Be Embezzling Money From Ars Technica

        Just a few days after writing an article on Ars Technica about the possibility of foreign users on RedNote being walled off from Chinese users, rumors began swirling on Lemmy that she may soon decide to defraud her employer by transferring company money into her personal bank account.

        😝

    That’s fair. Our own platforms are flooded with government astroturfers. They wouldn’t want those leaking in.

    Wait - so this is the CCP directly censoring a whole worldview from its citizens.

    But I was told on several lemmy threads that the CCP lets their users consume any content, and all the censorship is American propaganda to make the great leader look bad.

    There has been no official announcement that such a change is coming, but Reddit commenters speculated that possibly the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) was requiring a change to stop American TikTokers from using the app to influence Chinese citizens.

    Ah, that trustworthy and unbiased group of China experts that are Redditors

    Two sentences before this they were explaining quite clearly why chinese users might actually be bothered by the flood of american users and why they might want the ability to filter by IP region, but because some redditors speculated that the SeeSeePee doesn’t want the Americans to spread their freedom-loving germs to their country then that must be why they’d do it, if that rumor were to be proven true

    The irony in this is fucking delightful. No one wants Americans using this kind of brain rot social media. Maybe that’s a sign…

    A wee quote from the author of the original little red book …:
    “the two slogans – let a hundred flowers blossom and let a hundred schools of thought contend – have no class character; the proletariat can turn them to account, and so can the bourgeoisie or others. Different classes, strata and social groups each have their own views on what are fragrant flowers and what are poisonous weeds”.

    Seemed a good idea at the time, remember how that trick evolved thereafter …?

    It amazes me how people apparently can’t live without watching shitty videos all the time… Oh, well.
