Rednote right now

This place really shilling for ccp? That disappointing

Some of this shit is just true and really show how clueless some people are. China is not all bad.

But in some responses... The social credit had pilot cities. And people were banned for e.g. flying due to social misdeeds, while it seems to be unrelated to the social credit.

The reality that especially Americans will be de-brainwashed by, is that china is not a communistic state. That it isn't all bad. China is much more like america than both pro-china and pro-america people want to accept.

Lmao

As a civ player, I know a cultural victory when I see one.

Time can't eat away, nor can we be led astray, we'll still remember that day, from Beijing to Taipei..

Stop circlejerking the CCP assholes. While the US system is not great, it's better than one party totalitarian dictatorship.

China propaganda machine goes brrrr

The way people really suddenly think oh yeah China is just a good country like a European democracy where you can live well is flabbergasting. Of course a dictatorship with massive censorship and suppression of minorities has mostly positive comments.

And of course, many people that aren’t part of a harassed minority or politically active against the rulers aren’t saying horrible stuff against them (which wouldn’t be seen anyway).

So total brain rot absolutely everywhere?

Remember that "Grapes of Wrath" completely backfired as a propaganda piece because Russians were amazed that poor Americans could still afford cars

I always thought social credit thing is just in memes

Wait, China's not a dystopian nightmare?

Well tbf, even though it's strictly banned in China there are still some cases of it happening in rural areas.

People are people no matter where they live, which also means you can't trust any government anywhere. Propaganda is powerful.

The idea of a social credit score has always been hilarious to me, like yo bros we have credit scores over here and they legitimately fuck us over since you need good credit to do alot of things like renting a place to live.

I'm sorry you haven't paid off 900 in 5 years? That's kinda on you at that point.

wow the level of cope in this thread (thankfully not that many tho) arguing over stats - which are probably made up anyway.

some people can't handle that most humans just wanna be friends regardless of gov politics bs

Wow, the content on the Chinese-controlled social media platform aligns with the Chinese narrative? Shocking.

picture 2: not real and technically imposible to do that cause we have 1.4 billion people

This makes me imagine how social credit score department people hands look like if social credit score is real

Eh, there's truth and lies on both sides. Coming from someone that lived in china for 4 years and was able to engage with Chinese primary news sources. But basic healthcare in china is faster and cheaper, but then again I went to get a wart removed and they prescribed me acorn paste that accelerated the growth of the wart. So win some lose some.

I still don't believe the TEMU bit though

Few things blew my mind even though I've been a big fan of Chinese economic and political policy for a while

They actually really like Soviet Culture, the marching soldiers and flags etc. Soviet rock like Kino and the like is very popular!

They're casually Marxist, its not something they have to fight to learn about so socialism is a casual existence for them. I figured the youth would be "too cool or hip" but doesn't seem to be the case

They're very similar as gamers, they really like shooters like battlefield and cs go. I assume their MMOs are different but I'm asking about that

It truly is a massive cultural exchange the likes of which have never been seen before. I'm trying to find out if they grew up on the same games, Morrowind Deus Ex Thief Ultima Online D&D etc

我爱小红书！I love rednote! So many cool people and I'm brushing up on my mandarin 😎

No. So many goods cannot be produced by children, it is inefficient.

New tagline dropped

There's a bunch of Chinese posts asking if the stuff about school shootings, fires, homelessness are exaggerated propaganda only to be told otherwise. It's both hilarious and sad.

If banning tik tok ends up galvanizing demand for healthcare reform I'm going to laugh my ass off

Circle jerking about China is as ridiculous as circle jerking about the US. We've been here before with US vs USSR, but this time everyone has a megaphone and an IQ that can be measured with a ruler.

imagine making social media so bad your own citizens actively procure your biggest rival's networks.

I spent $82 USD on cold, flu and bronchitis treatment last year!

The fact that this is considered expensive there made me do a choking double take in the same way as learning that an actual mansion in the 70s used to cost like 20 grand.

It's honestly very wholesome to see this kind of interaction. On top of cute moments like Chinese users telling the new US users that they are their "spies," seeing a lot of blatant myth dispelling surrounding the PRC is great to help tear down the Red Scare.

Reporter: [REDACTED]

Truths you find inconvenient are not misinformation, reporter.

Thanks for the flags, I needed them /s

Not everything! For instance, we don't wear shoes to bed.

I mean, an app that's named after the Little Red Book and which has strict moderation rules (no "Winnie the Pooh" refs, sorry) has comments that claim all the bad things you've heard about China are just American propaganda. What a surprise.

I see a lot of folks going "wow, stupid Americans really believed social credit scores were real", and meanwhile I see a detailed Wikipedia article describing the implementation of the Social Credit System by China's Central Government.

Can someone cite me a source more credible than random internet comments? Otherwise, I'ma just take this as propaganda itself.

Truth: the strongest propaganda.

Lol people actually believed that social credit score bullshit?

I didn't think child labor still existed in China, just harsh labor conditions and low pay.

China's government's strict control of the media did, however, lead to me not questioning the social credit score thing.

This is breaking my brain... world news told me it was bad and told me what "experts" say about privacy.

They really need to add a translation feature though. It's getting a bit annoying running everything through a translate app, for both english and chinese speakers I imagine.

I realized why i fucking hate tankies. They use the same debate tactics as alt-rights but its not even a clear divide as technically theyre on your side.

Everyone's pals until you mention Pooh Bear...

Is this chinese punishment for banning tiktok?

Trying to talk about the conversations on Rednote while on .ml is kind of hilarious.

Quick! Somebody link to one thing the US government has said about China.

You lose points by googling, because everyone upvoting surely has seen the US government say something about China and knows where to find that document.

Cringe

If you called Chinese president Winnie the Pooh, then you probably wouldn't receive medical care at all or wouldn't receive a loan.
