Google and FB was not ban in China. Google and FB left China because they refused to abide by Chinese laws that regulate them. This is important for the people of the world to know. Many thanks to Daniel and Ben.

This incident is so strange. Suddenly, the Chinese doesn’t need to explain so painstakingly that they are being framed…. the Americans and their western cousins flocked willingly to a Chinese app to find out more about the truth of China. Free Advertising ๐

i never used tiktok but my mom did and even she's on xiaohongshu now. i've talked to her about china a lot over the years but she's now really interested in the chinese model. many americans have become so totally disillusioned and resentful of their society that even the slightest bit of exposure to an alternative system that demonstrates a far more successful approach to 21st century human life can push them over the edge. as an american though, i personally was concerned that tons of americans moving into a chinese space would be frustrating for chinese folks but it seems to me as though many of the westerners who are visiting are genuinely open-minded, curious, and come in reasonably good faith. the chinese users deserve a ton of credit for facilitating this exchange, they've created a welcoming and decent online space that would likely have been denied to them had this happened the other way around

I just downloaded RedNote and I felt so welcomed! This goes along with my experience living in Hawaii for 40 years. The folks of Chinese ancestry in Hawaii were always VERY friendly and inclusive. It must be a basic cultural thing. It hadn’t occurred to me that American based digital platforms wanted TikTok banned for economic reasons, but it makes total sense. American government has been yelling ”threat to national security” about TikTok, but I couldn’t for the life of me figure out what that threat could be and I am intelligent and well educated. Now I see. It’s about money. Thank you.

China is not perfect, but China is perfect example of what a people-centered government should be. Providing affordable education, healthcare, ulility, housing, public transportation, etc. Everybody can benefit from the development of the country, not just the super rich. People may argue it’s not an elected government, but people forget about what we need a government for at all, good governance. If you keep electing a government backed by the wealthy, everyday people will never get a better life.

The funny irony in that act of defiance is that of all Chinese apps they could choose to spite the gvt, they picked the one that is the best at promoting tourism in China. The quality of content between tiktok/douyin vs xiaohingshu is completely different though, I hope those tiktokers who will stay on to create content, will follow the quality standard we already find on rednote /xiaohongshu. Nonetheless, I love what is happening, as in, American and Chinese netizens directly interacting with each other and seeing the love and friendship displayed so far. It's almost like when the Berlin wall fell and east and west Germans were meeting each other directly for the first time. I hope that this honeymoon period lasts for as long as possible.

I’m so so so glad that this TikTok migration or ban (whatever you want to call it) has blown up so big to this magnitude and developed into such a positive force! The USA government actually has created such a monster so
unexpectedly and unwillingly ๐๐!!
At first I thought of it as such a negative force for not only China but for the relationship between the 2 people of Chinese and Americans! Contrary and shockingly it has brought the 2 people much closer, and created a better understanding of each other! Best of all it opened the eyes of the American people who have never been to this NEW China !!!!
I always have a saying to myself: “The more the USA government oppresses China the stronger China will become “!
I hope Xiaohongshu continues to improve the algorithm and the ease of navigating the app to accommodate more foreign friends to get on board!
May the friendship of the 2 people continue to improve ️️️️

The way TikTok refugees are finding out about China through XiaoHongShu ("Little Red Book") reminds me of Night Shamalan's movie, The Village. When a villager or two finally find the circumstance or courage to reach beyond the village wall, the revelation is life-changing and life-affirming.
This TikTok event is surely a Night Shamalan moment. (Or perhaps even he couldn't have thought of such a plot twist as TikTok-Rednote.)

I'm Chinese, 45 years old, moved to America about 20 years ago. I took my husband to visit China the first time in 2008, he got sick, caught some stomach virus, caused project tile vomiting and uncontrollable diarrhea. I took him to the nearby hospital ER, he received care immediately, IV therapy started, and x-Ray, labs, CT as well. He couldn't believe that I only paid about $40 for the ER visit with complete care, because he walked out almost 100% better after 2 hrs of IV therapy. I regretted not insisted to move back to China when we had the oppotunity in 2008. But, I must admit that life in the US is easier for us, a little less job competition compared to China, especially for the kids.

It’s an excellent location to do the video, I’ve never seen graffiti art in China and this was the first time for me to see one… it was so fun, at some point I was paying more attention to the art than these two distinguished gentlemen. Make no mistake, they totally rock, I’m a fan of both. Daniel did a great service and courage covering the hk protest (I was there, and I thought it was both surreal and painful to see what was happening on the ground and yet reading news reports in mainstream media) , and Ben is amazing when it comes to explaining geopolitics - he was the first one for me to successfully explain and highlight the importance of China’s digital sovereignty
I find it quite funny seeing Ben with a smile, he’s always been with a serious face on and it’s pretty evident he finds the whole xiaohongshu situation hilarious

Why??? Should Governments of the high cost nations be asking "how can they reduce that wide disparities". If we need to increase our efficiencies and be more competitive, we need to educate ourselves about how to go about it. Let's forget about misinforming our own people. It's costing us lots and not getting us anywhere.

If the USA decided to go into an actual physical conflict of the large-scale destructive kind of which it tends to do, I will absolutely stand with China, physically. I will go there and assist them in any way I can, to the point of formally enlisting on their side.

Traveling to China is only possible for the wealthy. The US government has excelled in maintaining inflation, housing, and rent, resulting in over 76% of people living paycheck to paycheck. In 2024, the United States experienced its highest level of homelessness on record, with more than 770,000 people experiencing homelessness, which was an 18% increase from 2023.

It's a good and bad thing. Good thing is genuine people can know about China and exposed the govt and media lies. Bad thing is a lot of bad actors can also come in to make this space into something undesirable like most western apps. Chinese social media as a whole is still very peaceful and wholesome.

Ben is right. I am a long time RedNote/xiaohongshu user. I don’t use Weibo because I am tired of politics and arguments. RedNote is more peaceful compared to other apps. We share lifestyles, hobbies and things that would make people happy. It was shocking seeing so many TikTok refugees flock to RedNote but I’ve tried my best to make them feel welcomed.

9:20 Tom Cotton knows Singapore is not part of China, he came to Singapore as part of a delegation and met with Mr Lee Hsien Loong. If LHL's father Mr LKY was alive, he (LKY) would have scolded Tom Cotton (till Mr. Cotton cannot raise his head) for insinuating Singapore is part of China, Singaporean Chinese serve China by asking Chew Shouzi whether he is in the CPC (not CCP). Alas LHL is not like his father. LKY once said "we are afraid of the US, but NOT THAT afraid" (after Michael Faye was sentenced to caning for vandalism in Singapore). I guess Singapore is now indeed THAT afraid of the US.

Thanks to the both you. I’ve followed both your channels since covid I find the two of you always back up your statements with facts, this is what real journalism is about.
I know Daniel’s not a journalist but he does a lot research before he makes his points. Also he has been on the ground for over 10 years in China he has lots of life experiences there.
Ben is rather a newbie in China but I’ve been following his content for a few years now his information in world affairs is next to none. I also follow his friends Max Blumenthal and Aaron Mate. If you want real journalism follow them all.

The worst thing about Musk buying tiktok is for Europe: TikTok has double to triple the amount of users compared with Musks current propaganda plattform. Wir his current plattform he reaches about 15% of voters and one can say after years of exposure to this plattform all of his users are far-right-wing. Now imagine he gets Tiktok in his hands, double and triple the amount. Germany repeating 1933 - but now together with UK, France, Spain, Italy... - very dystopian.

A question:
One country allows practically only one party in its political system, and that party's government continuously keeps improving all of its citizens' quality of lives and well being.
Second country has (practically only) two (wow!) parties, either/both of which do not really care about the lives of over 95% of its populations' quality of lives and well being.
Which country is better to live in, in your opinion?

Hey guys, can you look into this claim? Some tik tok refugees said that Chinese in the US is saying because of the flock of English users, red note is separating users by their IP address and so Chinese ppl in the US can not connect with their friends or family. I don’t think how this can be. Maybe some ppl is spreading fake info.

There are so many China travel vloggers on Youtube and so many EV reviewers who cover China. Those people have been living in a bubble.

I shared China stuff on Twitter for years until Musk's regime suspended me forever (I covered many subjects) they claimed I was "spamming" I was selling nothing all I did was share my posts mostly with people who knew me.

I am not into social media apps and I don't live in China or the US. so my thoughts are from an outsider perspective (albeit one that is trying to be well-informed).
I have also followed both Daniel and Ben for a long time. And while I understand their enthusiasm (along with other anti-imperialists in many forums) on cheering this development. I remain very skeptical. How do we know for sure that the ban AND the influx of Tik Tok refugees, is NOT a calculated move by the US Empire particularly by its intelligence to gather information and to get a good picture on things inside China including about public sentiment from Chinese netizens? (for example the news about US users asked Chinese users to show pictures of streets and daily life inside the country) Or worse, to foment false imaging about life in the West among Chinese netizens that could one day become seeds of a colored revolution? To think such a development is not going to be exploited by that intelligence apparatus is dangerously naive.
Maybe others who are well versed with the workings of xhs will know better and whether this can be monitored. But in the matters of geopolitics, we always need to have a base assumption that the Empire is not stupid or short-sighted. The fall of Syria that Ben also mentioned, is a case in point. We cannot wholly assume that this Congressional ban is a backfire or bungled move but there could very well be sophisticated and long term plans by the US. As anti-imperialists we need to be vigilant about that. So I think cautionary pessimism is warranted.

The United States "democracy" allows the voters to choose between (usually) two candidates from each of the Republican and Democratic parties, that the rich / wealthy and big corporations installed as candidates, using their huge donations.
So, this is clearly not the kind of democracy that a democratic country should have.
As long as so many Americans continue to vote for the two mainstream political parties (Republican and Democratic), both which are aligned with the extreme implementation of Capitalism in the United States, the country will continue to endure financial hardship caused by inflation and other adverse outcomes of Capitalism, such as health system run by insurance companies, rising fuel and grocery prices and a huge inequality. The U.S. government (and many of its people) thinks it still manages / controls the world. It no longer does.
It's time for implementing Socialism in North America, similar to the one with Chinese characteristics that's implemented in China, or at least the Social Welfare Model of some European countries, by all conscientious people starting to vote for the Socialist Party of the United States.

Okay, I joined the app. But 1:25 in you just told a lie. Tell Xu Xiaodong who beat numerous kung fu masters with MMA that there is no social credit score. He wasn't able to fly even domestically and had so many rights taken away from him and Cancelled for shaming traditional chinese martial arts. I love the app, but it doesn't do anybody any good for you to propagate lies like there's no social credit scores in China. That's a blatant lie and with the CBDC or Central Bank Digital Currency, they could turn off anybody's money at any time if they choose. All of that being said, i think i may prefer to live in china than the USA oligarchy and MIC.

For real ya'll the comments cannot handle any iota of nuance.
Either something is 100% perfect or it's 100% awful, there's no in between.
In my opinion if you want to live in reality you have to acknowledge the good and criticize the bad. There are a lot of great things about China but there's a lot of horrible things about China. Same for America but this is not an argument for both sides are the same. They're not.

Two minutes for something easily identified as not true to be said? TWO MINUTES? Is the entirety of searches ran by "American Propaganda", including German publications? There IS a social credit. The difference is in how invasively it is portrayed.

This app is named after the iconic little red book that was the bible for communism thought. Every Chinese had to carry it and study it under Chairman Mao. The name is not subtle at all. Look into the history.

Hold up there is definitely a social credit system in China. It may not be equally applied because for example my in-laws were from Fuzhou, one of those what they call second tier cities, does not seem to have this.
There is a martial artist Chinese influencer who I follow has definitely hit the social credit system though.
So basically that guy is someone who does MMA and he goes and he goes around and challenges the old school traditional Chinese martial arts, The so-called combat Masters that do Tai chi and so on.
Well he attracted the attention of some officials who didn't like his rhetoric and his attack on what was perceived as traditional Chinese things and so he was prevented from using or writing airplanes or the high speed rail.
I remember he complained that he had to take one of the slowest forms of transportation and stand for like 12 hours a day just to get to where he needed to go.
And while I do think it's awesome that there is this cultural exchange and that ordinary Chinese and ordinary Americans are seeing that we are actually really the same (because remember y'all what we need to realize is that it's the rich against the poor).
But this doesn't deny that they are real problems with what the Chinese government does. For example their stance towards Taiwan or the Uighurs, or the Tibetans, we must not ignore the real issues with the Chinese Communist party.

I don't didsagree with your critiism of the US, but let's be honest here, the Chinese government is much worse. You can't even joke about Winnie the Pooh or even utter the words 'screw the government'. The same primitive rules we used to have in fascist dictatorships. Yes, we do have immense problems with political freedom in the west and capitalism as an economic system is worse than Chinese socialism, but in terms of individual freedom of speech\expression\movement, compared to China we are like 200 years ahead, even after the TikTok ban. Something as simple as 'Xi Jing PIng is an idiot' is a crime that will put you in prison, writing a song with themes the government doesn't like will get you banned or jailed... If you were Chinese and lived there making the kind of videos you make talking about 'the crimes of the Chinese government' in the same way you do now about the west, you would end up in jail or dead. I'm not anti-China in any way, I just think it's hypocritical to hate on the west specifically for taking away 5% of your freedoms when China is a full-on dictatorship.

All countries / governments censored contents, I think it’s more Americans who believed they are “free”. This video has misleading about many things - Its considered cheap for westerners because of the cost of living. How you try to comment something on Chinese government on Chinese social media. You make a report of the success in China which js good progress, but you forgot to mention it’s because of the open market. Have you asked the local Chinese people about their life and cost living ? Current situations in small cities ? Companies withheld salary from employees?
