Americans are joining the Chinese social media app en masse to protest an imminent TikTok ban.

  • American users have flocked to Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu in defiance of security warnings.
  • Chinese and American users have engaged in surprisingly friendly conversations about each other’s lives.
  • The influx of American users could burden Xiaohongshu’s censorship mechanism, experts say.

This is the second time in this thread that I've seen Nazi comparisons. Stop whitewashing Nazism by making absurd comparisons.

How does censorship justify Nazis? Maybe you're just rationalizing anti China propaganda.
