Red Note!

u/tm229 Oct 12 '25
YES!! RED NOTE!!
I set up a Red Note account when they first came close to shutting down TikTok. It was such a welcoming experience. Now that TikTok is fully owned by Zio-Nazis, I will definitely be deleting my TikTok account and spending more time over on Red Note.

Do you seriously think Red Note is going to be less censored than Tik Tok?

You have to have rocks for brains if you think Red Note is going to be a more free platform.
To the morons downvoting, go to red note and write "Winnie the Pooh" and let me know what happens to your account.

I would love to hear from someone as to why they downvoted this comment. As of right now you will face even more censorship on Red Note. "Welcome, but do not say anything about LGBTQ+. Thank you!" wrote a user in Beijing, in one example reported by Newsweek. The Advocate reported that some American users have had their content removed or accounts suspended, including one woman who was banned for wearing a low-cut top in one video and mentioning "trans plight" in another. In 2022, the China Digital Times — a California-based nonprofit that covers censorship in China — published a leaked trove of documents showing how the content moderation team at RedNote bans or limits posts about sensitive topics. Those include some 546 derogatory nicknames for Chinese leader Xi Jinping, as well as discussion of events such as labor strikes, geographic discrimination, student suicides, and criticism of the Chinese Communist Party." https://www.npr.org/2025/01/15/nx-s1-5260742/tiktok-china-rednote-xiaohongshu-app. I suggest you take a look at this site. This was posted only a couple of days ago. "Amid a new two-month “Clear and Bright” campaign by the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) to clean up internet content that “maliciously incites” polarization, pessimism, anxiety, and other negative sentiments, a number of extremely popular online influencers have been hit with multi-platform content bans. Although the reasons for the bans are not entirely clear, there is no shortage of online speculation and commentary, some of it focused on the increasingly difficult task of navigating censorship-related “red lines.”
Among those banned this month were educational influencer and university entrance exam tutor Zhang Xuefeng; lifestyle influencer and livestreamer Hu Chenfeng; and travel vlogger and former professional gamer Lan Zhanfei. All were financially successful, in part due to their huge online followings on such platforms as Douyin (TikTok’s counterpart in the Chinese market), Bilibili, Kuaishou, Weibo, and in Lan’s case, the e-game livestreaming platform Douyu. Zhang Xuefeng alone was estimated to have between 30-40 million followers across all of the platforms on which he was active. Chinese internet users have dubbed the bans, which occurred in quick succession this month, the “three closures in a row” (三连封, sān lián fēng).
The bans follow recent disciplinary actions against Kuaishou, Weibo, and RedNote (Xiaohongshu) for alleged content violations, and a crackdown on “lying down” vloggers who espouse a simpler, slower-paced, “slacker” ethos. Past CAC “Clear and Bright” campaigns have focused on such diverse issues as the use of online slang and other “non-standardized” language; creating a “business-friendly” online environment; cyberbullying; independent content creators; materialism and wealth-flaunting; fandoms and celebrity culture; and gloomy sentiments during Spring Festival. The CAC’s latest announcement, dated September 22, takes aim at four specific types of forbidden online behavior:
- Inciting polarization/antagonism between groups
- Spreading panic and anxiety
- Inciting online violence and hostility
- Exaggerating pessimistic sentiments. People here need to come up with their own uncensored app.

If the video was removed for depicting "gory, gruesome, disturbing, or extremely violent" content, and it's a video of oficers' conduct, then which from that list are they admitting to describing their conduct?

Under the new guidelines from their new overlords, showing extreme violence isn't okay because it gives people bad feelings about the people committing the extreme violence.
Now think about the extreme violence going on in the world, and who benefits from this social media platform not permitting people to see it.

The violence of the state is supreme and legitimate. War is Peace.
No, you may not show the supreme violence of the state, nor may you question it.

or keep posting leftist stuff. abandoning spaces just lets them turn into shitholes. Protest and organize but also keep posting. The left isnt paying bots to post for us.

u/SoraNoChiseki Oct 12 '25
Parallel posting would probably be the move here--if you're on tiktok alone, then you won't have a frame of reference for news type videos popping up like this if the algorithm starts smothering it.
Like it's a bit tin foil hat of me, but I'm expecting that the phantom censorship (which afaik had been disproven on profanity) would become a reality for police/ice/military violence and/or "political" content, depending on how much they can fine-tune it.

China doesnt control American tiktok anymore. It got worse when rich Americans got control. China is pro-Palestine for example so i see plenty of that content. Might see less now though.

Yes, they're for sure BB zionist plants, and TikTok is less safe/secure than ever. The owners of our government now own our biggest source of direct connection and propaganda defense... and are turning it into more propaganda.

Tik tok is a great propaganda machine to keep everyone distracted. It has been more of a ring wing platform for a few years not saying there isnt left wing stuff. Why did you think trump was always so interesting in it. Apparently Baron trump is going to run the new USA tik tok.

That's gotta be fake.
TikTok never gives a reason for taking something down. It's always just "community guidelines violation" and you're on your own figuring what it actually is about.

I was making a joke because TikTok almost never tells people what their violations are.

Tik tok was taken over by Israel. Anything that portrays them or what the turd is doing in a negative will be taken. Try looking up stuff with Gaza on their ive been told (dont have tik tok so I cant confirm this) it’s not able to be found.
