Imo it's more sad than hilarious. US users and Chinese users meeting each other on the platform and discovering they are interesting people who actually have a lot in common sounds like what I'd wish the internet to be.
It's not surprising, and I get the irony, but I feel more sad than amused.
You know, the news about Chinese and American users comparing their worldviews seemed weird to me because it reads like this is the first time Chinese and American users have interacted and had the chance to talk "candidly".
My first thought was, "Why the fuck is this news? It's not like Chinese users can't interact on American platfor---"
...oh. Right. The great firewall.
