    No, I know you’re lying. You and the other person that responded to me with this little factoid y’all must love. I can promise you if a Chinese citizen thinks it’s worthwhile to access any “banned” websites like Lemmy in China they’ll just download a fucking VPN like the rest of the world. What, you think they’re scared of your Tiananmen Square posts? You know Reddit is still taking users? this ain’t r/neoliberal

      Lemmy.ml is blocked in China. You have to subvert the Chinese government to access it. That ok with some people I suppose. So you have to use foreign technology to access foreign sites from China… that’s ?freedom? baby.

        Subvert the government. lol. Yall are scared of your own shadows. I have to also subvert my government to watch Netflix shows or download music. Scary authoritarianism oh my god.

        There’s also Chinese VPNs, not that it would ever matter where the vpn would be from, for someone who’s progressive seeming you don’t like people using “foreign” stuff? I don’t see the problem. Literally every single piece of clothing I’m wearing right now is from China except for My undies which are from Vietnam. Look at all of the stuff around you right now, I’d bet money the first thing you pick up was made in China. Oh no it’s not American so it’s scary!!

          Make public statements and publications in support of lgbtq+ in a city in China. See how that goes for you.

          Edit: Netflix shows are not blocked by the government. They are blocked by netflix.
