David on Formosa<p>🧋 Since it&#39;s peak in 2020 and 2021 the online influence of the Milk Tea Alliance has declined due to several factors</p><p>1. a shift in global attention to conflicts in other regions; <br />2. China’s growing soft power influence; <br />3. the tightening control of freedom of speech in participant countries; and <br />4. an exodus from Twitter/X to various other platforms. </p><p><a href="https://dominotheory.com/has-the-milk-tea-alliance-spoiled/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">dominotheory.com/has-the-milk-</span><span class="invisible">tea-alliance-spoiled/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/MilkTeaAlliance" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MilkTeaAlliance</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Taiwan" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Taiwan</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/HongKong" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>HongKong</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Thailand" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Thailand</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Myanmar" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Myanmar</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/activism" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>activism</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/SocialMedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>SocialMedia</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/%E5%8F%B0%E7%81%A3" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>台灣</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/%E9%A6%99%E6%B8%AF" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>香港</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/%E5%A5%B6%E8%8C%B6%E8%81%AF%E7%9B%9F" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>奶茶聯盟</span></a></p>
