They lied to us about TikTok being a “Chinese based app“ and how they were concerned about “the safety of our data“ and so 3.7 million of us skipped gleefully over to an ACTUAL Chinese app and clicked the TOS without reading it. We don’t read it in English. Why would we read it in Mandarin? Made a bunch of friends, learned a bunch of Mandarin, and found out they lied to us about the Chinese people as well.
Such as: did you know once they buy a house, which averages around $30,000 American, they own it for life? They pay no “property taxes“ and their children can take over that house without penalty. The grocery hauls are amazing (and insulting). Like did you know they are eating fresh food, fresh lobster and crab and feeding themselves and 4 family members for two weeks for under $90 USD? Did you know that they have EV cars that perform better than luxury cars stateside and they only cost $10,000? Same thing they buy the car they buy the tag, and then it’s done. They don’t keep paying year after year.
But my favorite is that with 1.4 billion people… They have .018% homelessness. And 97% have full universal healthcare coverage. So what’s our problem?
All in less than 24 hours. That was on Monday, January the 13th. So when TikTok went dark yesterday, Saturday the 18th… None of us went back to Meta, which is what they anticipated… No, no. 5 million people hung out on Red Note for 24 solid hours.
We are pissed, we are broke, we are awake, and we are petty as shit.
I agree… And a lot happens in seven months.
