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

Can’t have them getting ideas like tolerance for minorities.

LOL

Kinda like how Chinese citizens can’t use tiktok either. Wonder why…

Tiktok is for westoid plebs... They got different agendas for daddy's property v their own subjects

To bad they didn't hear about Loops. I don't use this stuff so I have no idea if it's good or not, but it's not Chinese or collecting your data so it would be worth a try. Although if 400k users flooded it I have serious doubts they could scale to meet a demand like that.

The scalability is my concern too. It took me like 8 days after I signed up before I got my login to Loops.

Gotta say I really like it, though

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 (1957?), remember how that trick evolved thereafter ...?

To the surprise of some people I guess but certainly not to chinese users.
