    Political content is entirely banned on the app so your assertion that it pushes political propaganda when it refuses to host anything political at all is kind of reactionary fake news.

      Who defines what is political content? Who controls it? Since when is all propaganda political?

      Is a video talking about China’s terrific business opportunities political? No. Is it propaganda? Yes.

      (Also, “political content is entirely banned” = no photos of the tank man or cartoons of Winnie the Pooh.)

        Yes it is. And it’s not allowed. Would be banned. I have never seen anything remotely close to what you describe here. :)

        I have seen a lot of that on Instagram, though. Instagram has a surprisingly broad tankie community!

          Are you really claiming praising China is not allowed and talking about how great it is would get the account banned? Because I do not believe you at all.

          And if you’re right, why the hell would anyone want to use a platform where they literally can’t say how great the place they are is? Is only trivial and unemotional conversation allowed?

          (I note you never actually said what defines political content or who controls that. I wonder why…)
