Americans are joining the Chinese social media app en masse to protest an imminent TikTok ban.

  • American users have flocked to Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu in defiance of security warnings.
  • Chinese and American users have engaged in surprisingly friendly conversations about each other’s lives.
  • The influx of American users could burden Xiaohongshu’s censorship mechanism, experts say.

What does race have to do with anything?!

Exactly, the meaning is much more clear without it.

You know damn well they were referring to nationality rather than race.

Looks like you are trying to troll but the meaning is more clear without that too.

You completely changed your post.

Everyone here knows who the troll is, troll.

You're the one derailing by intentionally misinterpreting and being thick about it. Highly encourage you to take a step back, look at this exchange, and think about the point and effectiveness of it all. All I can say is reading it literally made me shake my head and sigh.

You are too obvious now. I will not be replying to you any further.
