"Red Note" is NOT the correct translation. It's actually called "Red Book," a clear reference to Mao's Little Red Book. They could not have picked a more hardcore Commie app! They need to just ban them ALL from the U.S. market, but nobody is talking about banning Chinese shopping apps like SHEIN, Temu, or CapCut, which collect ALL THE SAME user data.
So why not ban those apps? ... Because you can't politically organize on those apps. You can't "notice" things on those apps. This is about eliminating forums that allow us to escape (((Western))) censorship. It's not about "privacy." TikTok and Telegram never asked me for a credit card or my home address, unlike the shopping apps, so why not ban those first? Again, it's about controlling political narratives.
Not just Red Book. Explicitly Little Red Book.

What are you trying to say with that, pal? That's a typical CCP talking point: "China is the world leader in X," "China makes the most of X," but as well know, quantity does not imply quality. It's often quite the opposite, especially with China, its wares and its people.
It wouldn't be kia2 without m0r1arty making an inside joke that nobody outside his head can get. I severely doubt the Little Red Book outsold the Bible anyway, maybe on a "bestseller list" but not total sales
Ah. Thanks for the pointer.
Well, I hate the CCP and I don't live in an abstract, theorical world to think otherwise. I live according to the facts. If facts aren't your forte then perhaps ambling into conversations requiring them shouldn't be your thing.
Here are some more facts: the CCP is an anti-Western dictatorship with a criminal culture that's incompatible with the West. They're not "good" for each other. China is undermining the West with slave labor, and now it's dumping cheap EVs into Europe, decimating local competitors who don't have slaves of their own to build their cars. The list goes on, but China must be stopped and excluded from Western economies until they agree to play on equal terms.
Very communist.
The children yearn for the Vines.
the chinese should not be allowed to operate here in any capacity
