With a TikTok ban on the horizon, it appears that the people of the United States has 'migrated' to the Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu, and this cross-cultural interaction has provided entertainment for netizens online. 

This is because, you can most definitely, rely on the internet to turn any circumstance into an online joke. 

  
While the US weighs a TikTok ban over security worries linked to China, users in America have turned en masse to another Chinese social media app, Xiaohongshu (REDnote).The app has skyrocketed to the top of the US Apple App Store's free download rankings, as many users utilize it to make light of the situation and ridicule the government's attempts to prohibit TikTok.

A huge amount of users have taken to X and TikTok to share their experiences with the Chinese app, sparking a meme frenzy on X. 

While they delve into the Chinese social media platform, they're uncovering a vast new realm of content, features, and cultural nuances - with a sense of humor about everything. 

Some joked about feeling like they want to learn Mandarin now, while Chinese users have handled humor from others.

Since the internet is known for their slang and memes, especially on TikTok, Americans are now checking in with their Chinese mutuals on Xiaohongshu on how do you say 'slay', 'who is this diva', and 'raw' in Chinese. 

Though we don't know for sure if the ban is truly happening, it is a little bit ironic that Americans have taken their jokes onto a platform from China, which seems to be the worry of their government in the first place. 

We do know however that, the memes are in fact hilariously.
