American Tiktok users would rather use ACTUAL Chinese spyware app than Meta. XiaoHongShu (meaning “Little Red Book”) and ChatGPT (for translating the Mandarin only app) are currently #1 and #2 on the App store.

      Sticking their middle fingers to the government? I even saw a trend where people were talking about live streaming on red note and just walking through all the government buildings near them.

          What does the Chinese government care what I say about the American government?

          What can they do to me anyway?

          After the 6th of Jan, I can’t be convinced that the USA takes treason seriously.
