You are welcome here but please don’t talk politics. This isn’t Baidu Tieba. I just want pictures of your cat.
I don’t think people should go into the app with the assumption every Chinese person is a die-hard leftist comrade like them.
They are just people, people from a nominally communist country, but people none the less.
I joined yesterday and there were so many pictures of Luigi. He seems to have a lot more life as a meme in china than he does here.
This makes the mod decisions on Luigi posting even funnier. Apolitical Chinese citizens are beating us.
No we will not give you communism
now please provide the pussy picsWell, this is the stated attitude anyway. But then people seem to be openly discussing politics just fine?
I just joined yesterday so if there’s more nuance to this please fill me in. But this seems to be the attitude.
I saw someone post a picture of an old copy of Quotations and talk about being a communist and the response was overwhelmingly positive, but there was one person who asked for no politics discussion.
EDIT: and one asshole who tried to make a comment about imperialism against "taiwan" but I reported his ass
From what I understand red note is like kinda the bougie app for rich kids or something so I guess it makes sense
Is there an app for the proles?
Yeah I think so, I’ve seen people mention it but I’ve forgotten the name sorry
what are some example of common discourse considered "divisive" on Little Red Book?
So far, adding subtitles to videos and what language to type in. Not so much in a “hey you’re bad” sort of way as in a “hey this is important and everyone’s talking about it” sort of way
