It’s been nice to see ordinary Americans open up to life in China but everyone is acting blind to their censorship. Makes me thankful for the fediverse and being able to self host my own instance.

    Xiaohongshu bans all politics, even references. There’s more serious platforms for those type of people, whereas xiaohongshu is to have fun and connect with others.

      I’ve been in a lot of political discussions on Xiaohongshu. It seems people learn a little Marxism even in high school and are happy to share about it.

      Not everything has been super fabulous about China, but nothing critical of Mao, and a big consensus that living in China is kinder to people who aren’t wealthy than the US

      Please name the serious platforms in China that allow the discussion of politics.
