          I didn’t compare to any place. I just stated America is filled with hatred towards minorities.

            You singled it out. Which was incorrect. Hatred of minorities is common in every culture on every continent of the Earth. It’s a basic human nature thing. And America isn’t special in that respect. Hell when you get into large monocultures like China Etc the racism and hatred of minorities gets even more extreme and specific. In fact a lot of those hatreds have been imported from all over. The Koreans hatred of the japanese. The Japanese is hatred of the Chinese and vice versa. Various Indian sects hatred of each other. And the colorful bigotry of Europe and the Mediterranean. But one thing it is also produced here in America that is a little less common than elsewhere. Are people that actually are much more tolerant and supportive of minorities. Unfortunately they’re not the ones in control but they do exist.

              Singling out a problem that exists in a country I am very familiar with is a non problem. I didn’t state it was special to America. I didn’t speak on any other nation and their hatred of minorities. I didn’t even state anything about it being part of “human nature.”

              I spoke on being familiar with the fact that it is a problem in America.

        Oh come off it mate. It’s not hard to see where the US has lead the charge in topics such as LGBT+ rights or racial equality, and it wasn’t from Asia or Europe let me tell you that much.

        They may have a shit ton of flaws, and have a large part actively trying to undo all their work, but they have still done so much positive.

        Look at the timeline for marriage equality for instance, they were right up there with the first wave leading the global surge. That doesn’t happen if you’re full of hatred for them.

        They’re a dichotomy of amazing social progressivism and brutal conservatism.

          I didn’t say there were no positives from America did I? I didn’t rank where America stands in how progressive or conservative America is.

          I said America is full of hatred towards Minorities with no comparison to another place.

          I am not wrong. There is too much of it.

          So “come off” what exactly?

            But you are wrong. The US doesn’t hate its minorities in general. The US hates the poor in specific.

            • Gay billionaire
            • Black billionaire
            • Hispanic billionaire
            • Muslim billionaire
            • Female billionaire

            The same goes if you replace “billionaire” with “poor”. If you are rich, you are welcome. That’s your only qualifier. If you are poor, you are trash. That is your only qualifier.

              When I say America I mean the people of America. There are large numbers of folks, regardless of why they do, hate minorities.

              I didn’t say the wealthy “elite” weren’t the cause of a lot of the divide. They absolutely are. No such thing as an ethical billionaire.

              I’m not disagreeing with you on the fact that your financial status isn’t what really separates us. What I am saying is there is still too much hate towards minorities. That doesn’t change that the wealthy are a problem.

              You’re taking two separate ideas and merging them into one “truth.”

              They ate two separate topics. Just because the wealthy are guilty of the bad they are doing doesn’t take away the fact that there is too much hate towards minorities in America from the people that live here.

            Decep is right.

            Not from America. America is full of hatred towards minorities.

            You’re basically implying the bad outweighs the good to the point that it won’t give them any ideas.

            The bad may be very amplified now, but I think the TikTok crowd in particular and US history skews towards “majority good”

              I didn’t imply that. Stating that there is too much hatred of minorities doesn’t mean that America fails at everything. That is a stretch. Me pointing out that America has a lot of hatred towards minorities isn’t a reflection of everything America does as a whole is inherently bad.

              I didn’t say that America can’t have a good influence on another country. America isn’t one to look to especially now for how minorities are treated.

    Why? Isn’t that as racist as the us banning TikTok in the first place?

    I smell a double standard from the red and yellow country again.

    I tried to challenge some ideas in World News and I guess asking questions about Chinese censorship is xenophobic. Now I’m banned for not being pro Chinese censorship.

      There’s your problem. If they stated their rules, rather than forcing people to figure them out by trial and error, I’d have less of an issue with it. Like, lemmygrad is explicit in its intent and they state it outright in their rules. Lemmy.ml plays it too coy, and so comes off as incredibly manipulative.

    Just a few days after more than 700 million new users flooded RedNote…

    A Beijing-based independent industry analyst, Liu Xingliang, told Reuters that RedNote was “caught unprepared” by the influx of users.

    RedNote’s Chinese name, Xiaohongshu, literally translates to “Little Red Book,” which seems like a direct reference to a book of quotes from Chinese communist leader Mao Tse-tung. But The Washington Post reported that the app is designed to be apolitical and its co-founder, Mao, maintains that the name instead pays “homage to the colors of his college,” Stanford Business School, and his former employer, Bain Capital.

    Go for it. I have my doubts that there is really any mass migration of English language users to an all Chinese website to begin with. The whole thing feels like a propaganda campaign.
