I don’t like big government but I have zero sympathy in this case. TikTok is the greatest cancer on modern society and I will not change my mind on that.
Hey, did you know that Facebook is partially* responsible for a more recent genocide? So, considering TikTok’s ties to the Chinese government, which is also known to commit genocides, I’m gonna go ahead and say this is probably a good thing.
Edit: changed because Facebook just incited it, people are responsible for their own actions.
Tictok is horrible but this entire ban is being driven by the swamp being upset that young people have come to the wrong conclusion about Israel. I think that the idea is that as long as people are using facebook or google-owned properties, people can be shown only information that will lead them to the correct, approved opinions.
Nah, this entire thing is about US control. They’re upset that it’s a different government that’s spying on us this time. No sympathy for TikTok but there’s no good way to spin this.
Btw, you know if TikTok sells to a US company, they’ll be just as rancid, right?
I agree but TikTok is worthless in general. The content it serves people is literal brain rot. Also, I don’t want it to sell, I just want it to die and never come back.

We literally have a global rise in violent fascism and multiple ongoing genocides, and TikTok is the worst thing you can think of?
Social media in general is likely contributing to the rise of violent facism. Anything that can reverse that trend is good IMO.
