Is it also racist that China has banned Facebook and many other US based services?

It’s weird to think that you would support banning TikTok because of the influence China might have on US Culture, but are totally cool with the fact that Facebook is a tool of cultural export across the whole globe. I don’t remember the last time TikTok was the instrument of genocide, but hey, if you want to support that, go for it.

Dude, some people just prefer longer form content. To each their own.

I never said that shortform content is bad or that tik tok should be banned. I just couldn’t care less about the app because it just doesn’t have anything in particular that interests me. If it did I would be using tik tok and not lemmy lol. The comment above just kinda rubbed me the wrong way i guess.

Then don’t use TikTok? But also, TikTok does up to 10min videos? It’s weird that your reaction is “Shortform content is bad and we should ban the app”
