  • Yes, but that would mean the US gov would be competent, which they are demonstrating they are not. I believe it is more likely they will take the knee jerk reaction to ban the app, and the Supreme Court has already upheld the TikTok ban. We'll see what happens, but I see this as a major win regardless. The damage has been done. People will not be able to unrealize the propaganda they've been fed.



  • Yeah that's what I mean, though. The shift has already happened. Amerikkka already owned itself before the TikTok ban. Now they have to decide whether to anger a million or so people by banning RedNote, or continue to allow users on RedNote which continue to be more radicalized anyway.

    Also realize 1 million people potentially becoming sympathetic to AES countries and communism is a big jump in the number of people currently radicalized in the US. We only had about 100K people vote for PSL, for a comparison.


  • Ban is a bit of a stretch. Really what's going to happen is TikTok won't be available on your app store. So you won't be able to upload it. So theoretically it will die a slow and glitchy death.

    So no new users, and then you wouldn't be able to refresh with the software fixes, and then it would get glitchy.

    As said on the CopingBabySeething [in the] Morning Channel. Anyway, I'll be on RedNote looking at tech content and learning Mandarin instead of watching baby's first computer lesson.

    Slavery is a bit of a stretch. Really what's going to happen is we will imprison the black population disproportionately, implement Jim Crow laws, not inform them they have been "free", and as they get funneled into the prison industrial complex due to attempting to survive in this caste system of austerity, we will force them into labor with little to no wages. So theoretically slavery will die a slow and glitchy death.








  • If RedNote isn't banned right away, this just shows how incompetent our bourgeoisie are. A 4 year old could maintain capitalist order 10x better than these morons. Amerikkka just needs to throw in the towel. China keeps winning while this sad sack of a country can't even figure out the controls.


  • Not to mention most jobs are gig work now. I haven't had a full time job with benefits for years now. I am able to survive with one full time contract job, but my mental and physical health are at an all time low because I sit and work all day five days a week, including holidays if I don't want to lose pay, even when I am sick. There's no reason all of these gig jobs shouldn't be full-time jobs with benefits (as well as the numerous low paying part time jobs that people worse off than me have to suffer working in multiple of them). Every time a US company needs an employee, they just hire a contractor so they can get away with not paying them benefits. I'm able to get health insurance from the contract company I'm hired under, but I have to spend around $500 a month, and that's for me alone. Funny enough, the health insurance cost at my workplace isn't any better, so even if I were hired, I wouldn't pay less in insurance. I worked in jobs that paid me much less where the insurance was around a few tens of dollars a week or so.
