I want to stress again, that Americans hate and distrust Elon and Zuck SO MUCH that they've voluntarily given their data to China, and BEGUN LEARNING MANDARIN TO DO IT.

And they're having FUN.

Whew. It's going to be a wild ride.

And you're going to have a hard time manufacturing consent for aggressive action against China when 170 million American TikTok Refugees are mutuals with half of the RedNote netizens.

This is absoLUTELY going to have diplomatic ramifications.

I am watching 30 years of propaganda melt away at first contact with actual Chinese folks.

Every comment section on RedNote are the Chinese users welcoming the Americans, "I'm so glad you're here! We can be friends now! We are not enemy!"

I absolutely loved reading AI Snake Oil for precisely this kind of understanding on how to separate the fluff from the stuff. @randomwalker.bsky.social @sayash.bsky.social
