I found it hilarious when I saw pics of users saying they thought USians working 2 jobs just to stay alive was CPC propaganda, lmao
I have had multiple DM convos with Chinese netizens who are like wait holy shit its that bad? Then we will go back and forth talking about how its capitalisms fault and having extremely based conversations. Its SO refreshing to chat with them. Outside of lemmy its so rare to talk to someone as based as they are.
Wait until they find out there are Americans working three jobs and/or gig work 🙃
Yea...
D'you get any sleep?
They have gig work in China too (delivery apps usually). But the difference is, the government in China actually has made the push in recent years to get the companies to treat their workers as workers, and be humane, unlike our Western apps.
seen some of these american rednote users getting mad condescending behind their backs
"wow it must be illegal for them to look up other time zones and i'm their only way of possibly knowing 🥹"
If I'm honest, RedNote is fine. I guess I've already recognized how deeply fucked the US is in comparison to other countries with international travel I was blessed enough to be able to do. I've been saying it's a mentally ill society. My first talking point is always how much cheaper and healthier food is abroad. There was a guy who was talking about corn being 1/5 the price in China and instead of having my mind blown it's more like "yeah, that makes sense." On top of that, I already thought China is... le good! So while I really like that other people are waking up to the disparity, I don't actually like using the app that much personally.
