This tiktok/rednote thing is really proof that nuance is dead. A handful of interactions with normal Chinese people on social media and suddenly teenagers are simping for the CCP.

How difficult is it to understand that Chinese people are simultaneously a huge population of normal people, with varying, nuanced beliefs who — much like Americans & Westerners — are also likely being influenced by large amounts of government propaganda.

“But someone on rednote said x about China!” Gonna hold your hand gently, but random rednote users are not automatically reliable sources of information about an autocratic regime just because they live there. Or should I start taking your uncles fb rants about ���the immigrants” at face value just because he’s American?

Yeah, the tiktok ban is bad and dumb and hypocritical, and tiktok/bytedance are probably not explicitly doing the CCPs bidding, but I legitimately saw people on twt call a Chinese critic a CIA asset ffs. That’s not the opinion of someone seriously unlearning pro-US propaganda, it’s someone who’s just fallen for different propaganda instead.

Do not let them erase this. Do not let them tell you he meant "my heart goes out for you."

This man is the grandson of a Canadian Nazi sympathizer who moved to South Africa BECAUSE he thought the apartheid was just the coolest.

He has a gaggle of kids specifically because he believes his genes are superior and need to be spread to improve humanity.

He has thrown his support behind the neonazi party in Germany and the far right party in the UK, not to mention how far he's wormed up the ass of the Republican party.

He threw two sieg heil salutes back to back at the inauguration of the president of the United States and is trying to scrub the evidence off the internet.

Elon Reeve Musk is a fucking Nazi.

so the tiktok ban was literally just propaganda for the trump administration. like. we all agree with that right. this is just laughably transparent. the ban wasn't even 24 hours. not even a whole day. to quote my infinitely funnier mutual from Discord, "Misha Collins was bisexual longer than TikTok was banned"

Fuck that post going around saying "you can have coffee in your story without justifying it :) you don't need to explain everything :)" I want, no, I DEMAND a fully researched ethnobotanical paper on every single food item in your work, if you don't explain to me where did potatoes come from in your fantasy setting or don't explain how the industry of coffee works over interstellar distances with full detail you are doing things wrong and I personally hate you and I hate your stupid story, fuck you

Now is a good time to remind everyone that A Muppet Family Christmas has:

The Muppets, Fraggles, AND the Sesame Street cast all together

Really good music

Amazing character interactions, like the Swedish Chef trying to cook Big Bird (which backfires because Big Bird instantly wins him over with kindness) or Rizzo the Rat moving into Oscar's trashcan

Very cute moments with Kermit and Miss Piggy

Great jokes

A talking turkey flirting with Gonzo's chicken girlfriend

A perfect Jim Henson cameo at the end

and is also free to watch on Youtube right now
