Just got on xiaohongshu the other day and am wondering why the homepage is full of such weird posts. A lot of posts asking foreigners if they are attractive and some strangely pro-US stuff everywhere, even asking if Trump actually secretly means well and has a heart of gold or something. The comments are even worse at times being outright racist, and it’s not super uncommon. Not common but not very rare either, maybe once every 10-15 posts. What’s up with that? Is it cuz my public IP is US-Based?
my theory is that a lot of the content in english are for chinese people to learn about the west and learn english and is not actually what they consume, or maybe there’s a lot of users that can be very reactionary from other parts of asia like india, or more simply there’s still a lot of pro western/reactionary people in china
