    Is a video talking about China’s terrific business opportunities political?

    Yes it is. And it’s not allowed. Would be banned. I have never seen anything remotely close to what you describe here. :)

    I have seen a lot of that on Instagram, though. Instagram has a surprisingly broad tankie community!

      Are you really claiming praising China is not allowed and talking about how great it is would get the account banned? Because I do not believe you at all.

      And if you’re right, why the hell would anyone want to use a platform where they literally can’t say how great the place they are is? Is only trivial and unemotional conversation allowed?

      (I note you never actually said what defines political content or who controls that. I wonder why…)

        You clearly came into this conversation with your mind made up so I am under no obligation to answer all your questions :P This is why people don’t like engaging with you

        Flying Squid: “is ice cream with waffles good?”

        me: “literally all my experience shows that the answer is yes”

        Flying Squid: “i do not believe you at all”

          No one forced you to engage with me in the first place. You didn’t have to respond to my initial comment if you don’t like engaging with me.

          And, of course, nothing you said justifies refusing to give answers to very basic questions which happen to be critical of a platform you apparently like.
