downloaded rednote and this a frequent emote in the comments

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
damn DDG got that really wrong ty!
- ChatGPT translates it as “a divorced Trump” or “Trump after a breakup”
- 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
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?
- 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."
- 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.
asian man is yellow lololol

Casual racism is so cool
- Whinny the Pooh is yellow....
- LMFAO. This is your takeaway if race is ALL you can see.
- 🤡 you're the racist if that's what you get from that image.
- Would you still be mad if we posted it in greyscale?
- nah just xi.
- It's really curious to see how Americans will post "Haha, your President is a funny color!", then applaud themselves for being bold and transgressive.
  
  But when you see an American posts "Jesus, that's some hollow, ugly, bigotry. Why are you attacking a person for their skin color? You should know better", they're bombarded with downvotes for being hack while implicitly accused of being an agent of a foreign power.
  
  Really illustrates what "Freedom of Speech" amounts to in a Settler Colonial state.

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 mean, RedNotebook is an open source journal app for desktop
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 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.

离了个特朗普 Lí le gè tèlăngpŭ

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
