the real reason why the government tries to ban apps is because it gives an unfiltered look at people the government has tried to demonize for years

LOL, the irony is that red note is censoring posts from those "tiktok refugee".
It is such a western privilege to think that they can avoid unnecessary censorship and big tech monopoly by moving to Chinese platforms. When Chinese knows full well that they don't have such choice.
To further the irony, the west actually have abundant options to avoid censorship and big tech. Yet people think they are "less usable" than google translating (big tech monopoly btw) your way into a censoring Chinese big tech monopoly...

An unfiltered look at, checks notes, a completely censored and controlled people who aren't even allowed to hold up a blank sheet of paper in protest?
As if they don't ban apps too.
i know china's not as bad as north korea when it comes to this sorta thing, but they really just let that happen
Doubt. Just sounds like they capitalized on spreading this hoping to make it real
Edit it’s working jeez the general population is so stupid
Yes… it’s the population that’s stupid. It couldn’t possibly be an area of ignorance for you. At a certain point, you might consider some introspection. Or at least consider not taking new knowledge and having to revise your world model as a personal insult. Not everyone thinks the same way you do. You’d do well to make peace with that.
