The young voices in the messages left for North Carolina Sen. Thom Tillis were laughing, but the words were ominous.
“OK, listen, if you ban TikTok I will find you and shoot you,” one said, giggling and talking over other young voices in the background. “I’ll shoot you and find you and cut you into pieces.” Another threatened to kill Tillis, and then take their own life.
Tillis’s office says it has received around 1,000 calls about TikTok since the House passed legislation this month that would ban the popular app if its China-based owner doesn’t sell its stake. TikTok has been urging its users — many of whom are young — to call their representatives, even providing an easy link to the phone numbers. “The government will take away the community that you and millions of other Americans love,” read one pop-up message from the company when users opened the app.
Cool zoomers to US congress and senate members :

I would never do this because it’s illegal and a crime but it’s very legal to laugh heartily and beam proudly and come away with a markedly better mood
Now do this but for going to the doctor
👏 MORE 👏 DEATH 👏 THREATS 👏 FOR 👏 POLITICIANS 👏
“If you want to make a difference, write and call up your congressperson. No, not like that!”
