Silence, white westerner. I only want to hear takes from Real Chinese Communists.

Trump is president and this is their priority?

That’s the point.

I can accept that the Western version of the events are exaggerated. I can accept that the US has done worse things to it’s own citizens. I can accept the protestors had poor motives.

I am begging the CPC to propagandize to me, so that I can become even more pro-China.

I tried. I couldn’t find anything.

Sorry, but I want to hear it from a real Chinese communist, not a western YouTuber. Find me a BiliBili (or Douyin or Rednote) video on the topic.

What do you mean it didn’t occur? Something obviously happened, and it’s only a question of whether my government’s version of the events is true.

My entire RedNote feed Americans whether it’s true that George Orwell books are banned in China (they’re not), and Chinese asking whether it’s true that American schools have shooter drills. Of course I’d like to ask them about the first thing most Americans think of when they hear the word “China.” Unfortunately, I can’t, and I’m stuck with only one version of the events (and I’m not going to rely on Western Hexbear users to get the other version).

That’s not the issue. The issue is that it’s impossible to even have a nuanced and honest conversation about it because any hint about it gets automatically removed.

Is Threads even a good enough product for users to be willing to endure ads?

You’re perfectly free to go on Lemmy instances that don’t have that as a rule.

I just added it as a rule for the communities I moderate. I also set my Bluesky feeds to filter out X links.

Lemmy instances should follow suit.

Well you can nicely ask your instance admin to block Bridgy Fed

Bluesky’s ActivityPub support is also leagues better than Threads because of Bridgy Fed. At least a Bluesky user and a Mastodon user can follow each other and have a back-and-forth conversation.

Depends on the server you’re on. Lemmy found popularity when a group of communists had their subreddit(s)banned

That’s actually part of the reason why the original devs started Lemmy.

SteamOS used to use GNOME, but now it uses KDE.

Valve should have used GNOME on SteamOS so I could actually use it with the touch screen, and no on can convince me otherwise

I’m heavily interested in Bluesky, so I started !bluesky@lemmy.ml. However, Lemmy is overall pretty hostile towards Bluesky, and I’m not willing to go back to Reddit for active discussion about it.
