duck duck go says the text says “Leave a Trump”
离了个特朗普 means “as outrageous/unusual as Trump”
离谱 means “outrageous/unusual”
了个 is exaggerating the tone
特朗普 (trump) is a wordplay here as the 普/谱 is in same sound and only a Chinese radical off
Sauce: me
Edit: damnit, I made a typo at 离普, should be 离谱
IMO 离谱 is closer to "eccentric", "quirky", and "unusual" than "outragous". 离谱 is certainly not a good word, but it is mellow enough that you can use it to joke about your friend, unlike "outrages".
Edit: of course, I am not saying Trump is just "quirky"," and "eccentric", I am merely explaining the word 离谱.
*quirky
Thanks! good catch, fixed.
damn DDG got that really wrong ty!
ChatGPT translates it as “a divorced Trump” or “Trump after a breakup”
i don’t know what to believe anymore but i guess i give slight priority to the human translator hehehee
China works with contexts so providing an image might have actually helped, haha
in Chinese, this sentence might be something like: "China work context provide image help actually"
I love bad translations!
ChatGPT translates it
Well, you get what you pay for.
So did ChatGPT lol
Can you post winnie the xi jingping on there?
Or is that an insta-ban like every other chinese-based platform?
Discussion of any Chinese politics is prohibited, pro CCP or not. So yeah I think this will get you banned pretty quick. I have seen other international politics discussed though.
Tbh I've been on !casualuk where politics is also banned and it made for a more chill environment
i bet you feel so repressed over there :P /s
but yeah i totally get that and thats why lemmy is certainly not my only social platform /gen
Insta-ban. But at least you can criticize the US government on there. I don't think that will continue to be a thing on major US social networks in the coming years.
Mock USA in RedNote, Mock China in Instagram Reels?
Or mock both on Lemmy, I suppose.
Unless you're standing on the 3's territory.
Old Soviet-Era joke. An American and a Russian meet in Berlin for drinks. The American says to the Russian, "Don't you ever long for freedom of speech in your country? Why, back home, I can go on the telephone or radio and say all sorts of bad things about our President Ronald Reagan. Nobody stops me."
The Russian takes a sip, shrugs, and replies, "Comrade, I don't understand the problem. In the USSR, I can go on the telephone or radio and say all sorts of bad things about your President Ronald Reagan, too."
Reminds me of the Jewish guy who wanted to move from USSR to Israel. They asked him:
"Why do you want to leave? You don't like the people here?"
"I can't complain."
"Or is it your job?"
"I can't complain."
"Perhaps you don't like the politics here?"
"I definitely can't complain about that."
"So why leave?"
"Because there I will be able to complain."
A joke that hasn't aged particularly well, given the current state of the Israeli government.
Over 10% of the entire nation of Israel was out in the streets demanding Bibi’s resignation in 7/23 with no reprisals for anyone. Im willing to bet you can criticize Israel in Israel.
Don't be weird
Can you post that Trump picture on truth social?
I wouldn't know. I've never been on that platform.
They are thoroughly compelled by the government there to remove any anti-government sentiment and ban the accounts. But before you judge, that's going to be the next target in the US once facebook and twitter finish canceling "woke" and promoting whatever flavor of nazi-ism they're in the middle of promoting.
Trump has nowhere near enough hair to make pigtails like that. Plugs or not.
It's like he lets a few wisps of hair grow long and then wraps them around his head for volume.
the rest of it is just a lot of cat and cooking videos lol
Which is why it's great!
Isn't it actually "little red book"?
Ie mao's manifesto...or the AA handbook?
RedNote makes it sound like a new Evernote
i think there’s just multiple popular english translations of the mandarin product title
I think you misstated that. There's multiple English titles to avoid using the real name. There's one direct translation I've seen from every article on this, and it's little red book.
I can’t see any evidence of 小红书 being used to described the Quotations. The term for that book I see being used is 红宝书 - “treasured red book.”
didn’t misstate. yes the mandarin title xiaohongshu most directly translates to little red book. what might you call a little book? a notebook. note. so rednote, little red book, or red notebook are all translations of the original. rednote is simply the easiest to say for anglophones as it’s fewer syllables and the one that has been chosen colloquially. not that complicated lol.
more info is available right on wikipedia none of this is like a secret or something:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xiaohongshu
The app was initially called "Hong Kong Shopping Guide" and targeted Chinese tourists.[8]
The name Xiaohongshu or 'Little Red Book' was inspired by its co-founder Mao Wenchao [zh]'s career at Bain & Company and education at the Stanford Graduate School of Business; both institutions feature red as their main color.[9][10]
'Little Red Book' is also the English nickname for the 1964 compilation Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-tung.[8][11]
The app is often called RedNote by U.S. users.[10][12]
I didn't say it was secret? I said it's a way to hide.
I think you're skipping a few steps but I don't think we'll ever see eye to eye so byeee
I think it means more like Great Trump. The 离了个 part means great. 特朗普 means Trump. Google thinks the complete phrase means The Great War but that’s not really right either because the last 3 chars defo mean Trump
DeepL says "Away from a Trump". Says 离了个 means be divorced and 特朗普 means Donald Trump (1946-), US Democrat politician, president from 2009... Makes even less sense.
But incredibly amusing.
That first character is more routinely a character that indicates departing from a space / location but in this example, it’s definitely not being used like that.
Is that Vera de Milo?
from Sonic the Hedgehog 1 2 and 3?
Maybe, but I was thinking In Living Color.
Waiguoren opening rednote was opening Pandora's box 😭 The Great Firewall protects us as well
