RedNote Memes: “I’m a TikTok Refugee” Memes Ahead of Ban

With TikTok’s ban imminent, US users find humor and refuge in Chinese app RedNote (also known as Xiaohongshu). Hilarious interactions between Chinese and American users have gone viral, with many Americans humorously dubbing themselves “TikTok refugees” as they migrate to RedNote. Scroll down to see some of the funniest memes and reactions!

Me on my way to download this RedNote app to get closer to my Chinese spy:

First thing I learned after downloading RedNote is that *this* is apparently a meme they use a lot in China... I'm crying lmaoooo

"TikTok is a threat because of China" *A bunch of us moving from TikTok to REDnote* The braindead US Gov:

RedNote is trolling the TikTok lefties

just downloaded but the user guidelines are in Mandarin so I just clicked what is in the normal place of the “okay"

The American migration to Rednote is the latest iteration of this meme.

Stole this meme from rednote

Chinese meme be like

The American migration to Xiaohongshu (RedNote) may be the craziest accidental cultural exchange ever. Hundreds of thousands of users landed in an app not localized or in their language. One day in, and it’s already considered rude not to subtitle videos in the other language.

Americans flocking to Rednote a Chinese app out of spite and revenge is the funniest shit I've seen the last 10 years. Zuckerberg and Musk thought they won. People gonna learn Mandarin out of spite .

If RedNote banning gays results in leftist zoomers turning into staunch anti-communists it’ll be the funniest timeline imaginable.

PS for those who may not know, RedNote’s Chinese name is “Little Red Book,” as in the book by Chairman Mao, a key instrument of indoctrination, personality cult, and authoritarianism

This is what’s going on on Rednote except instead of trying to destroy the regime American Tiktok users are joining it

The RedNote stuff is funny cause I've always held the mindset that while governments are fighting there's some guy in a different country who wakes up every day and does the same thing you do just in a different language. Feel like I'm seeing people realize that real time lol

This RedNote/Xiaohongshu saga is the funniest thing because Americans are experiencing REAL censorship for the very first time instead of American "censorship." The simulation overlords couldn't have written a better script.

The big disconnect is gen z doesn't view China as the enemy. They're not the ones shooting up our schools, putting us in a lifetime of debt to go to college, taking away our bodily autonomy. The boogie man doesn't work on us we weren't spoon fed Cold War propaganda

Can someone on RedNote tell me what happens when you post this:

The jokes about Americans turning to RedNote instead of Insta or Facebook are peak humor. We are so unserious and it might be my favorite thing about being American. We’re still a dumpster fire but we got jokes.

I downloaded rednote[Chinese Instagram] as a tiktok replacement, and this is my first comment. These people are hilarious

My roommate downloaded Red Note (the Chinese version of Pinterest/Insta) like 6 hours ago and he’s already saying “Big ups to Mao Zedong” we are witnessing a moment

TikTok refugees learning the hard way: RedNote runs on Great Firewall rules, not rainbow ones

american tiktok users installing a chinese app (rednote) directly on their phone bc of the tiktok ban is hilarious

Xiaohongshu is kind of a mouthful. How about we just call it X instead?
