The U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill that would ban TikTok unless its Chinese owner, ByteDance, divests its interest in the app.

I’m not kidding. This will make Gen-Zers vote for Trump. All he has to say is he’ll reverse the ban. He’s already announced that he opposes this bill and that this only supports Facebook.

Biden and the Democrats are so fucking insane. I do not understand it. They want to lose all support with every fucking base they have.

I’ll never stop being on TikTok.

    One of the bills (the Restrict Act) seems like it is just remaking the Patriot Act but with more spying. So I doubt that this shit will be just allowed to not go into affect even if Tiktok is sold off.

      CHUDS when the Snowden leaks happened:

      "Fuck privacy, if you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear! It's our patriotic duty to share our information with the US, don't be unamerican!"

      CHUDs now:

      "You know, I'm suddenly really concerned about my information..."
