This is why we gotta ban TikTok!!! \s \s \s
People are in such a rush to confirm their own biases that they’ll upvote a wacky study from the UAE based on 3 states and AI judges.
before or after the democrats tried to shut it down?
Your grasp of recent history is mind boggling stupid to have ignored what happened, literally 5 years ago when trump and the GOP created the law and EO to shut down TikTok.
As a troll, you’re not even remotely believable. Go back to your cave, and try again.
Are you lying or just stupid? Because it was definitely trump that shut it down
“On April 24, President Joe Biden signed legislation requiring TikTok parent ByteDance to sell to a U.S. owner within a year or to shut down.”
The resposes here are amazing. It’s stunning how quickly the memoryholing is kicking in.
sorry in advance for the strays you’ll catch for saying as much… yeah, its heavily brigaded/astroturfed just about everywhere you go, nowadays. we’re to believe this is the common sentiment because by god, look at how many downvotes they can muster… i’m ambivalent, the truth isn’t something they can bully out of my hands
Oh, that’s as expected. What’s interesting, though, is the same exact argument pattern to other recent debacles. Like, “How dare TikTok/Progressives/Arabs side against us? Could it be they resent that we openly despise them and very recently fucked them over? No, that never happened, also Trump did it too! The only possible explanation for their hostility is that they’re ontologically evil, and we therefore have no choice but to continue openly despising them and trying to fuck them over!” Like, if this were a book, it would be panned for it’s heavy-handed hubris allegory.
Duh, of course CCP, wants mango moron as Prez. He’s a spineless POS that is all lies and no action.
CCP will feel free to run over Taiwan and the islands they want to take from Japan.
It’s freedom of speech. If people want a pro-Republican bias in the algorithm they should be allowed to have that without interference from the US government.
TikTok, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram etc only make you think you have speech, in reality what you post is largely ignored your are just a recipient of what the algorithm serves you and in case of TikTok, algorithm serves you whatever CCP decides.
I’m not saying Twitter, Facebook, Instagram are good either, they do the same thing and you should quit all.
We know.
