There has been a widespread misconception that China operates a nationwide and unitary social credit "score" based on individuals' behavior, leading to punishments if the score is too low. Media reports in the West have sometimes exaggerated or inaccurately described this concept.

Should we be making a large effort to spread the word of better options to people? I feel like the discoverability of social networks (like this one) has gone way down, and a lot of people would like somewhere to doomscroll that isn't shit, but just aren't aware of other places/apps.
Certainly may not help that setting up LemmyWorld on my phone involved a pinned website app, something I'm guessing a lot of people haven't done before.

I mean you should do it but not out of spite, or to be hurtful, but to give people the freedom to choose.
And to do that, they need to know what their government was up to.
Yes imperialism is violent and hypocritical. Kinda 101. Strange to see so many apologists for this kind of censorship on Lemmy. Lib brainwashing plus state religion.
Sorry can you elaborate? Are you saying this post is apologetic of the Chinese platform’s censorship? I took it to be critical of both.
Edit: nevermind I see all the apologists in this thread now. And it’s also fair to criticize the OP for casually comparing the two platforms as if they are equally evil.
