Mr. Xi tear down this firewall!

But fr do it, unleash the floodgates of the Chinese posters army on Americans. Let a billion & a half people who can all speak English run rougshod all over every corner of Western social media. Virtually no Americans speak Chinese, so the power imbalance is overwhelmingly favoring China. I want to see American news outlets demand the firewall go back up. I give it 36 hours before the "freedom, but at what cost" articles start getting churned out.

They really can't tho. The company I work for works with some Chinese companies and the language barrier is insane, 95% of their employees can't speak a word of English. Even the Chinese people that do speak English do it mostly on an intermediate level. I hear it's getting way better with their younger generations though so that's all probably quickly going to change.

Nah I'd keep it in place. The firewall is the only thing protecting them from the brainworm infested reactionary social media of the West

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
