Sure, this interpretation falls in the old man understanding of tiktok, someone who has never been to tiktok.
Current day tiktok is full of people of all ages and the feed adjusts to your interaction with the platform, so you won’t see a single kid unless you specifically take actions for it.
It’s not about seeing kids on the platform. It’s about short form content, short attention spans, and shallow takes. I don’t think the idea of maturity breeding patience and interest in deeper levels of understanding of topics is all that controversial.
My dad was almost killed by a US air raid at the end of WW2, has a PhD, raised 3 children, has at one point disassembled a car into its most basic parts and rebuilt it for a prank, and he’s on TikTok.
I interpreted it as TikTok is associated with children. Thus as a user the kid is still a kid and not an adult
