They are paid to write prompts for chatGPT, then copy paste that crap as articles

Read mine instead it has 25 citations because I know some nerds are gonna say "um but china tho" https://criticalresist.substack.com/p/as-us-youths-move-to-rednote-amid

edit: also this feels AI generated

But dig a little deeper, and the reality becomes far more insidious. RedNote isn’t just another app; it’s a tightly controlled platform that exports censorship, reshapes youth culture, and quietly undermines the democratic ideals its community takes for granted.

"Exports censorship" Weird, and here I thought that Red was the one freely available everywhere and TikTok was the one being censored by the USians.

Yeah, it also implies that censorship is okay as long as it's westerners doing it.

Nono you see, the US gov is not censoring Tiktok, its "closing its market". 🤓
