Context: The post was about how Tiktok was promoting minors sexualizing themselves for men and grooming them for sex work and etc (which I completely agree with). There was a sinophobic comment on the post though for no god damn reason. Everything that’s related to China somehow has an evil plot to it and how they’re trying to sabotage the west. This is yellow peril in the 21st century, and this is a horrific thing to promote. If circumstances were different and ripe, they would be thinking that Jews or other POC are responsible for societies’ woes.

    God damn these liberals even blame their own sex trade industries on China, a country where the sex trade, porn, trafficking, and women’s exploitation is highly illegal and cracked down on.

    Maybe these liberal “sex-trafficking is allowed cause freedom” countries, should make porn illegal like communist ones do, then they wouldn’t experience the inevitable result of sexualizing children.

        Ban the sex trade and start rigorously enforcing age-of-consent laws, and pretty soon no lib will ever be having sex again.

        There was this video that went viral a while ago of a lot of tourists just strolling through the red light districts, as if they were visiting a zoo. It was a large group of them.

        I felt so disgusted seeing that. Who the fuck thinks it’s a nice holiday activity to visit sex workers?

    Bold of you to assume they don’t.

      Exactly that. Right now, the enemy du jour are Russian and Chinese folk-- but I guarantee you, if China and Russia were to “go back to sleep” as I hear anglos putting it all the time, that enemy du jour would become Black and Mexican folk just like it was between the 90s and early 00s.

        It was also Muslims, and still is depending on geography and political motives. Apparently, the empire is concerned about the Muslims in China, but step over the border and suddenly they are evil again.

    Western Tiktok being significantly more toxic and cancerous than Douyin (Chinese Tiktok) is not due to China. It’s a reflection of your own fucking culture.

    Video recommendation manipulation by the government? Could that be why a Falun Gong video got recommended to me on youtube for the Umpteenth time?

      CHINESE RESTAURANT SERVES BOILED BABIES TO CUSTOMERS (SHOCKING) (YOU WON’T BELIEVE IT) (DEFINITELY NOT SPONSORED BY THE CIA)

        Not quite related, but a similair idea was peddled by one Lev Gumilev, a Soviet ethnograph and “philosopher”. He claimed that “khazars” had brought drugs and gambling to Rus, and also equated khazars with Jews - either with Ashkenazi specifically, or with Jews in general.

        So I would not at all be surprised if similair “ideas” will begin to show up in mainstream soon, this time with Chinese as the “culprit”.

    You know, for a userbase that loves to brag about being atheistic they sure do have a quasi-religious reverence for China. They see the CCP as this Devil figure that’s responsible for everything evil that goes on here in the states.

    Someone want to remind them that Western TikTok is entirely hosted on Western servers and almost completely moderated by Western admins? Shockingly, I’ve never heard any allegations of child sexualisation in “heavily cencered by the CCCCPPPP” Chinese Tiktok, huh, maybe censorship makes sense for some stuff?
