  • American users have flocked to Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu in defiance of security warnings.

    Why would I need to, these things have been known for decades?

    Don’t get me wrong, capitalists (ex apple) love to collude, but it doesn’t make china some magical perfect land.

      Yes, the intelligence orgs have been spreading lies for decades.

      China isn’t perfect, but most of the scandal news we hear about it is fabricated by our government. Even our own government has now admitted they made up the Uyghur genocide claims.
