Summary

Americans are posting videos about 3D-printed guns on the Chinese video app RedNote, despite the content being illegal in China.

While some users are uncomfortable with the topic, others see it as an opportunity for cultural exchange.

The future of TikTok remains uncertain as the Supreme Court is expected to rule on the ban.

    Tiananmen Square is like, a huge tourist attraction and plaza near their equivalent of the White House and other important government complexes I’m sure they’ve seen a ton of photos of it. They hold national events there.

      You know that’s not what they mean.

      But sure, you go ahead and post this “tourist” photo on RedNote and see what happens. Please do report back to us.

        See, this is why I think you and I would actually get along if you would stop moderating my comments about slaughtering the billionaires.

          No, I don’t think we would get along since you both blame me in specific for something the entire moderation team across the entire server has been told to do and for upholding Lemmy.world’s Terms of Service so that illegal things to say in The Netherlands don’t get the server shut down.

          Sorry, I don’t get along with people who blame me for things like that, but I wonder what you would say if I died tomorrow and those comments still got moderated (since they absolutely would)? Blame my ghost?

            Are you sure it’s not hosted by Hetzner, in Germany?

            And, there are two sides sweetie, for or against the ruling class. Tolerance and, “just doing my job,” is “for,” regardless of your opinions.

            When the Nazi-hammer comes down on the United States, will you be able to tell your grandfather that you did everything in your own limited power to stop them? Hmmm.

              I see you’re still enjoying your white and heterosexual privilege.

              When are you going to give me that legitimate email address?

                I’m a gay married man. I take all of this very personally. You’re the white conservative heterosexual with no stake in the game, yet all the moderation power. Ironic.

                  You’re lying, just like you lied about wanting to know my euthanasia date so you could know when to celebrate my death.

                  You’re not even good at lying.

                    I’m lying about being gay and married to a man? lol. Okay, kapo.

                    And why do you need a more legitimate email? Trying to identify me so you can report me to the pigs for wanting the ruling class removed?
