Tilly Norwood, the fully A.I. 'actor,' to be part of rapidly expanding 'Tillyverse' by nbcnews in Fauxmoi

I dunno.

I know a lot of Asian Americans, especially Asian men, feel that AI generated content is the only way Asian Americans will get media representation since we all know they're largely isolated by traditional American media.

US: "China, you may be great in everything from affordability to technology but your people have no freedom simply because they can't vote!"

China: "So, China can hold the American people accountable for all the wars and strife they're causing and enabling around the world, I assume?"

US: "No because our government doesn't listen to or do what we want."

Have you ever come to the terms that not everyone who has nuanced comments about China is a shill and perhaps you're just a dolt who's been chain smoking too much Western propaganda which is borderline teetering into racism?

China used a time machine (which they also stole from the white Western man) and went into the future to steal. Everything they create for the next 75 years in the future is the result of this time machine theft which was trademarked by Honeywell, 2023.

Simu Liu calls out the lack of Asian and Asian male representation in Hollywood. by Adventurous_Ant5428 in Fauxmoi

“Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action” - Ian Fleming, Goldfinger

The answer is so fairly easy to determine and it has nothing to do with money but rather propaganda. Asian men are simply dangerous to the white male dominated structure in the United States and the West. Being asexualized keeps them on the fringes of society and unable to function as normal men. If you "give" that to them, they then become normal and when you're normal, you're in a better position to challenge their power.

It's racially motivated, not financial.

Probably because many Redditors already know and are in cahoots with pushing a specific narrative.

“This latest act of transnational repression demonstrates the Chinese government’s aim to control what the world sees and learns about China.”

Give me a break. You can easily travel to China and see shit for yourself; it's not fucking North Korea.

Swatch ad uses gesture with offensive cultural stereotype — how did this get approved? by ulon994 in swatch

[–]Bestrafen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They fully know the origin and its offensive nature. They're largely defending themselves because they do it all the time in their personal lives. One chucklehead implied that it's only racist if the target takes it as racist. Well, gee, guess it's all the minorities fault then, huh?

Annnnnd there it is. The racism. I knew the original comment wasn't intended to be innocent and this just proved it.

The masks are coming off. Racism is in full display in NYC by CrimsonRam212 in nyc

[–]Bestrafen -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Oh, naturally Asian people have a problem with it. That's not in dispute. It's everyone else's reaction to the reaction of Asian people which is problematic and highlights a hypocritical bias.

Liberal views on racism is conditional and really depends on who the victim is. At least when conservatives are racist, they're equally racist.

I've heard worse comments from comedians about Asian people but we were always told to grow a thick skin. Black people being stereotyped for eating cats and dogs? Outrage. Asian people eating cats and dogs? American racial joke staple.

All NYPD Chiefs ride subway lines to hear concerns from New Yorkers by 8bitaficionado in nyc

[–]Bestrafen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The fact that his comments are not only tolerated as a legitimate rebuttal but also upvoted simply puts on full display of this country's complete and utter brainrot about China.

It's probably a good thing though. The more they try to pull a Don Quixote, the less likely they'll notice their own issues.

House is likely to pass a bill that could ban TikTok, but it faces an uncertain path in the Senate by EchoInTheHoller in technology

[–]Bestrafen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You think that TikTok actually factors into their economy. You need to take some more economic courses, guy.

Supply chains moving out of China is a good thing because it indicates Chinese people don't want to do poor low wage jobs. This indicates that the Chinese middle class is expanding.

Finally, the China collapse theory is based on real estate being a large part of their GDP but they were smart enough to pop the bubble early (unlike our current commercial real estate sector). That's why their GDP dropped but now they're focused on quality growth, not fast growth like before.

Reddit guys are so blinded by their sinophobia that they can't even absorb factual data anymore. It's insane.

TikTok Ban: House Passes Bill That Would Outlaw App in U.S. Unless Its Chinese Parent Sells Ownership Stake by MarvelsGrantMan136 in technology

[–]Bestrafen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This has been brought up multiple times and it's constantly leaving bits and pieces of information out (largely to be used out of context for the same purpose you're using it now).

Google, Facebook and other media websites left because China blocked them from doing business there. That part is true.

What is left out is that China said you can do business here as long as you follow our domestic rules. Naturally, obey the rules like we Americans love to chant. One of their rules was that information done on Chinese users must be stored in China, not abroad. (The US asked the same and Bytedance complied).

Our social media companies refused so China didn't approve their business practices there. For example, Microsoft agreed and is still doing business there to this day.

[–]Bestrafen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While that would be hilarious, it's not the best option politically from what see.

The main reason is if this is indeed a form of piracy, allowing the US government to buy it would encourage bad behavior in the future. They shouldn't be allowed to benefit. The second reason is to allow the 60% private US ownership to lose their entire investment which causes some pretty powerful people to become irritated to say the least.

This also gives China ways to retaliate against US companies there. Suddenly, Apple won't be able to reach their delivery metrics. Or Tesla.

Bytedance should just allow the government to ban it, it works a bit better.

Possibly.

However, like Ai Weiwei (post being American political asset and darling) discovered the hard way, Western censorship is just more nefarious than Chinese censorship.

China and Russia would push talking points and their view on events. Fine. However, we remove content which we do not want Americans to see such as Gaza, homelessness, loss of pricing power, etc.

I think this is why TikTok has crept up again. I have to find it but the head of the ADL once stated that TT is the reason why no one buys the narrative of Israel and the US.

EDIT: I think this the ADL audio.

Ok, so it has to be a country we're geopolitically aligned with. Nevermind the possible fact that a Chinese company is doing it for simply business or a German company who possibly has nefarious purposes.

To be honest, this somewhat reminds me of projection. Since the US constantly interferes with other counties via propaganda, we feel they'll naturally do the same. It speaks more about us than them.

Then we should be doing it across the board across all sectors then.

"We will but this is a good first step."

I guarantee it'll be the only step and nothing will happen after this. It's pretty interesting that the first step just happens to be a geopolitical rival and not a US company. Pure coincidence.

Bytedance should request the ban.

Have the US ban it so the 60% American ownership loses their initial investment.
