Classic based Wei Wu

Honestly, fair

The like... real actual Chinese people on RedNote speak far better than this, as a rule... And if they can't, they use ChatGPT which unlike this shit doesn't sound like a racist stereotype.

[–] EtnaAtsume@lemmy.world 13 points 22 hours ago

When Wei Wu says "I'm racist", it's true.

Because the person behind the account is a racist twerp perpetuating a stereotype.

Lol a whole lot of sheltered neoliberals about to learn that racism isn't a white-only hobby.

[–] Soulg@sh.itjust.works 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Who the fuck thinks like that lol Asians can be insanely racist

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 15 points 22 hours ago

People with no experience of other cultures

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 37 points 1 day ago (9 children)

It's funny, the tankies and neoliberals assumed that because their country was terrible, other people's were automatically good.

Love to see the lack of pussy footing. No bullshit just straight "nawh fuck that race"

I heard a story about an American trying to borrow a cigarette while in France and the guy said "I am how do you say .... selfish"

True honesty

[–] MrsDoyle@sh.itjust.works 2 points 18 hours ago

How do you "borrow" a cigarette?

[–] pseudo@jlai.lu 5 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

A pack cost over 10 €. Pay for yours.

[–] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago

That doesn't feel that expensive, but I also don't smoke. I guess if you are doing a pack a day it will be bleeding your wallet pretty good.

[–] Bleys@lemmy.world 258 points 2 days ago (6 children)

“Wei Wu” has an avatar that looks like it was AI generated, not to mention they’re verified on twitter and they talk exactly like a western person doing a Chinese caricature. Seems fake too me.

[–] AFC1886VCC@reddthat.com 103 points 2 days ago

Of course. It's a bit like the "feminist" sockpuppet accounts that say absurd things to turn people against feminism.

I hate culture wars and disinformation.

[–] ALoafOfBread@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (3 children)

Yeah, this feels like an op to me, too. I've seen a LOT of negative stuff about China over the past 72 hours or so. Like suspiciously boosted on Reddit (mostly) and Lemmy (less so). No proof, but anecdotally, it seems like much more than normal, and current events make it extra sus.

I for one welcome some healthy pervert and slut energy over racist energy.

Nah, rednote is no less horny than tiktok was, and half the horny content/comments are from chinese IPs.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 1 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Did people really think they'd be different?

[–] alcoholicorn@lemmy.ml 2 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, a lot of the news articles were just straight up lying about what rednote allowed, claiming LGBT+ and horny content was not allowed.

Meanwhile my FYP be like

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 2 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

They're struggling to moderate it right now, so you can't really say what their content policy is from what they're doing right now, especially with foreign content. Longtime Chinese users might know

[–] alcoholicorn@lemmy.ml 1 points 12 hours ago

That is true, there's a lot of stuff that is obviously against the rules, but a lot of the users on my FYP are longtime chinese users with older posts of similar content.

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 12 points 1 day ago

[looks through comments] So, Firefly nailed it, right? 未來是雙語的

Why do people want to go where they aren’t welcome though? I know it’s downright American af, but still.

[–] alcoholicorn@lemmy.ml 49 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (8 children)

That's the thing, every post on rednote like "do you guys want us here" has hundred of responses from chinese IPs like "Yeah, you guys are great", the only criticism I see is that some influencer don't like that the long-form videos they spend 8 hours a day making are getting out-competed by shitposts directly reposted from tiktok, sometimes without even a translation.

It's totally cool to be racist, but perverse and sluty behavior is a serious crime. Just think of all the harm sluts cause

It’s funny how people who believe in genetic superiority are usually the ugliest motherfuckers.

Also… Have they ever seen how gorgeous mixed people tend to be?
