    I’m not on any Chinese social media so I don’t have any personal feeds that are generalized. I’m more going off memes and videos off bilibili where there will be long explanations of Marxism with a ton of people in the comments

    I run on vibes

      I’m saying you can’t make a generalized statement like “chinese posters are X” based on what you observe on social media since the social media platforms introduce a selection bias whether you choose to cultivate it or not.

      It’s kinda weird how very aware everyone was of this on tiktok where we had frequent posts talking about how to cultivate it to be more specifically communist or complaining about being stuck in “niche hobby tiktok” yet on this new app everyone seems to have completely forgotten this and is celebrating that everyone is commie now because that is what they are seeing on rednote.
