They are both ultimately controlled by the CCP, however, the Chinese version is very restrictive. Having colored hair or tattoos will get you auto-banned. All the same evangelical-type restrictions apply of course.
The only thing keeping the western version from turning into a complete sewer are the advertisers. The TikTok Algo prevents people who are fat, wrinkly, too old, or unsemmterical (unattractive) from bubbling up. This is know from leaked internal documents supposedly.
- oefrha 4y ago> Having colored hair or tattoos will get you auto-banned. I just opened the Douyin app and seven of the first ten human videos have people with colored hair. Tattoos tend to be subtle and obviously won’t be seen in most videos, but you see them all the time if you pay attention. Dying hair is so normal in China especially for women (usually to shades of brown, but some will use more lively colors), you can hardly film a crowd without capturing a ton of colored hair. There’s of course also a whole world of cosplay for every popular game and anime on Douyin. I don’t know where people are getting these ridiculous clips of misinformation and confidently spreading them around without thinking twice. Edit: As an example, I just looked at the Genshin Impact cosplay tag. Tons of videos with hundreds of thousands to more than a million likes. Every single one of them has colored hair — purple, red, pink, green, blue, white, you name it. Conspicuous tattoos in maybe 10% of them. Go figure.
