i replied to a post asking an american history phd about the difference between israel and the US regarding the greater israel project and manifest destiny and it was removed. dunno if OP can delete replies or not or only moderation can do it

I love that app already

I came across a hateful MAGA comment earlier, reported it, + it immediately was like "this was unfriendly and war-induced, + has been dealt with — it's no longer available to the public." [害羞R] Such a breath of fresh air vs hearing the most heinous stuff "doesn't violate community guidelines"! 🥲

The people want Hexbear moderation

Just saw a post by an American asking to see photos of Chinese cities and Chinese ppl in the comments were sending photos. Super fun!

Someone asked why they like Luigi so much, this was the top response:

中国是一个倾向于集体主义的国家，如果有一个人为了集体去奉献自己，那他会得到大家的尊重。中国甚至有奖项专门去表彰和宣传那些舍己为人的好人[害羞R]我们这个民族延续至今也是因为有很多像他那样的人，为了公共利益不顾自己的生命[害羞R]

Google translate:

China is a country that tends to be collectivist. If a person dedicates himself to the collective, he will be respected by everyone. China even has awards to recognize and promote good people who sacrifice themselves for others [shy R] Our nation continues to this day because there are many people like him who risk their own lives for the public good [shy R]

Also saw this one:

还有一个，sorry我忘记他名字了，自焚在以色列大使馆前面的那个美国军人，我忘记他是否退役了。中华文化里，推崇为民请愿和为正义发声的人。

Google translate:

There is another one, sorry I forgot his name, the American soldier who set himself on fire in front of the Israeli Embassy. I forgot whether he was retired. In Chinese culture, people who petition for the people and speak out for justice are highly respected.

Response to that one:

Aaron, another hero[哭惹R][哭惹R][哭惹R]

Loving this app.

EDIT: This also came up pretty quickly:

been browsing it for an hour or so, front page is full of goofing on Biden and US gov lol, and a lot of Luigi stuff too as others mentioned, someone said that they plan to add a translate feature for comments, I'll probably stick around for the Chinese language learning stuff at the very least, never used tiktok or ig

This is also really cool:

Google Translation: The strings and songs are endless, and the firepower is passed down from generation to generation. Ideological and political coursework

These figures believed in Marxism-Leninism, had revolutionary ideas, engaged in revolutionary work, and made significant contributions. Through their theories, practices and leadership, these figures made great contributions to the world socialist democratic independence movement. Their thoughts and spirits still inspire people to fight for the cause of revolution and progress.

The work aims to inherit the red gene and promote the national spirit. It is also a beautiful vision for the future development, inspiring each generation to work hard and pass on the fire from generation to generation.

Found this really sweet.

Holy shit, the trans content on this app is wholesome af. Tons of supportive Chinese users too. Really heartening to see this kind of international coming-together.

I’m so used to browsing trans TikToks and inevitably seeing transphobic shit posted by chuds in the comments, but I see only kind words here.

Imagine making a social media app for the Chinese diaspora and literally calling it Little Red Book only for millions of westerners to flood it because their governments don't want their citizens indoctrinated with Maoism

The app's algorithm is now serving me a lot of queer content.

It's amazing (and also quite annoying) seeing Westerners be so surprised by any of it. On a video I saw in which two Chinese guys were being in love with each other, I saw a Westerner comment: "don't you get stoned for this??", and a Chinese user replied: "of course not, we have gay bars in China, don't believe all that nonsense"

Protip: US posters have 美国by their names. There are some people pretending to be from China on there pretending to be oppressed Chinese

finally installed xiaohongshu even though i'm australian and we haven't banned it yet, and literally the first thing i saw was luigi latte art

now this is posting

It's like reassuring to know that China behind the USA censorship are dirtbag shitposters like the rest of us.

Ahahahha this is fucking bonkers

So many videos of things happening in China, so many Chinese people and they’re normal people

Because of course they are, no shit. Hope there is some dialogue about this on TikTok right now

It took roughly 3 minutes of scrolling before I got a socialist art account ran by an account with a Stalin pfp. I felt right at home

Unintended consequences lmao.

guys did i not say that we should move to a Chinese/Russian (or any country the CIA/Israel) doesn't like platform?!

the good thing about interacting with other westerners on xiaohongshu is that you can debunk CIA/Israeli propaganda and bots cant flood you with bullshit and they cant ban you for going against their narrative

lmao

RedNote, or Xiaohongshu as it's known in China, is the number one free app on the Apple app store as of Monday, followed by TikTok's photo-sharing Lemon8 app and OpenAI's ChatGPT.

Based cultural hegemony

Tear down this wall Mister Gorbachev

Using this opportunity that we are having an agitprop contest here on Hexbear! Whatever leftist/hexbear related post a Hexbear user makes on Xiaohongshu and accumulates the most interactions will be featured in the agitprop community on the 19th (day TikTok is set to be banned in the US)

More details here!

This poster goes hard! The translated post title / description was:

Soviet propaganda poster [Unbreakable World Vanguard! 】 “The Unbreakable Vanguard of the World!”, Soviet propaganda poster, 1950

I'm not getting my phone code.

just created an account, my first three videos were all Luigi Mangione fan videos lmao
