    China isn’t a good country either. I don’t get why your so excited to back people up who commit genocide.

    Also is banning TikTok really preventing freedom of the press? They are beholden to the Chinese government and used to suppress talk about the Uighyur cultural genocide.

    How about we instead replace it with something like Lemmy but for video?

      China never claimed to have a “free press.”

      What (alleged) “freedom of the press”? This (supposed) “freedom of the press” is a cornerstone of liberal ideology - not whatever it is that China is doing.

      Again… the realization that liberal ideology is full of holes (and always have been) has implications for liberals - not people living in the PRC.
