Are they even trying to change that reputation? The last I heard was that if you published a game app that was any sort of popular, you could expect it to be stolen and resold in China.
I also generally find it hard to trust any software produced in any totalitarian state.
I am not a fan of the CCP or Winnie the pooh. They are committing genocide… call me what you want, I have no issue with the Chinese people only the ones on charge of the government. Bit keep simping for the authoritarian murders to virtue signal.
International sentiment generally negative about country actively committing genocide.

Jokes aside - yeah? Of course there’s propaganda about China. I would wager its hard to find a big international power that doesn’t have some level of propaganda being spread about it by the other big international powers. But between the propaganda you still find a bunch of real reasons to have negative views toward China’s leadership and actions.
Uyghur genocide (ongoing)
authoritarian rule with huge censorship of outside media I really don’t need to go on
It would be off the charts in Chinese media too if they had things like free press and didn’t arrest their people for posting things critical of the Chinese government.
It’s Chinese spyware that was specifically and provably designed to dumb down Westerners even more and make the Chinese smarter by specifically showing certain content to people in those countries. Americans then fell for it harder than a billion Trojan horses and remain locked in it’s grasp. That one small app took a ton of my respect for humanity away.
The Katyn massacre was a series of mass executions of nearly 22,000 Polish military officers and intelligentsia prisoners of war carried out by the Soviet Union, specifically the NKVD in April and May 1940. Wikipedia
Crossposted here because the tankie admins of lemmy.ml censored this comment and banned my lemmy.ml alt for “racism” because of it:
“Yeah, only the CCP is allowed to destroy China’s cultural heritage!”
At this point it’s probably better to move the larger default communities like World News, Technology, Memes, etc. to less extremist instances, because you never know what kinds of discussion the ideologues over there are censoring.
I’m sure this has nothing to do with the upcoming SAG-AFTRA strike since no deal was reached yesterday. I’m sure Epic is ensuring that no union workers are being fired immediately before an authorized strike.
I recently open sourced my network file transfer app. (sciactive.com)
