“Soooooooo goooooood. I like it,I would make me great again,guandong lunxianqu.”
GETTR, the new social media app from ex-Trump advisor Jason Miller, has received around 1,200 strange reviews from Chinese linked accounts, amid reports the app posts anti-CCP propaganda to user profiles without their permission.
A beta version of GETTR was launched on Thursday, with its description on the App Store declaring that it is “a non-bias social network for people all over the world” that “tried the best to provide best software quality to the users, allow anyone to express their opinion freely.” Highlighted features included “post, repost, comments,” “multi-language support” and “news sharing.” In an interview with Fox News, Miller claimed that GETTR has “superior technology” to their competitors, seemingly referring to alt tech alternatives like Gab, Spreely and Parler as being “not as good.”
However, the strangely-phrased, seemingly broken English language used in the App Store descriptions may be part of a larger phenomenon, National File can reveal. With most timelines declaring that it was “mid-June” that the GETTR app was first placed in the App Store, the vast majority of the over 1,200 reviews date from 16th to 17th June, and apart from a couple, all rate the app 5 stars.
Additionally, many of the reviews for GETTR are either once again in broken English or in Chinese. Anti-CCP sentiment is strong among the comments, even those written in clearer English. Some reviews include Chinese words transliterated into Latin text and randomly included within the review itself, while others don’t even seem to mention GETTR at all. Examples of the stranger reviews include:
- “Very perfect app! This is an epoch-making platform! A free platform! A real platform!”
- “The real media is geetr. Finally, we have found a media that dares to tell the truth and challenge evil. I hope she can light up this dark night like a torch.”
- “Escape. Cleansing is simple,fast,and there are many things that I like.”
- “Soooooooo goooooood. I like it,I would make me great again,guandong lunxianqu.”
- “Take down the ccp. Add oil.”
- “Good. Good Good Good Good Good Good Good.”
