    China’s lifestyle-sharing social media platform Xiaohongshu, or RedNote, has been summoned for talks by the cyberspace governing body for failing to fulfill its responsibility in managing its content, according to a release by the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) on Thursday.

    BASED BASED BASED the amount of straight up Nazi shit I saw and we’re talking runes and insignia amonga sea of dog whistles was really disturbing. My fault for flooding my feed with it because I was commenting on it but their fault for not taking literal calls for a new holocaust down.

      oh wow, I thought it was just mine. literally the explore page was just full of sonnengrads and swastikas and German empire alternate history stuff. I haven’t really used it for a while now because of that. though like you say, probably my fault for being the designated “wtf” commenter but still.

        100% correlation between 鬼佬 migrating to the platform and rise in reactionaries.

        As the Qing should have sealed the port of Hong Kong long before the white devils’ opium gripped over 10% of the population, so too should the party seal this breach in our great firewall from allowing foreign poison to corrupt our society.

        Yeah I stopped using it for the same reason as well. Like I can understand that chinese mods maybe aren’t versed in SS insignia, but even if I included links and lengthy(-ish) explanations they would get denied (or under close supervision or whatever their euphemism was)

          Their traumas are against the Japanse Empire, you can’t publish Japanese apologia on XHS, but it flies easily under the radar on western media, and vice versa

          Also vapid celebrity shit is mainstream, if the government gets the average chinese netizen to watch and discuss anything else that’s a massive win for the whole country so I can see why they see this as a structural problem

    oh no, XHS has to answer for teaching everyone about steaming eggs for dinner.

    oh, this is the local government of china, not the rest of the world having a panic

      Yeah this sounds like it’s about content that is becoming too much like the sort of vapid influencer brain rot you see on western platforms, and China ain’t having it.
