    So because the government can't control TikTok they'll just pull some Red Scare bullshit out of thier asses and ban it? It's mostly free speech, small government Republicans? 1984

      The government does control TikTok lol. CIA and NATO psyop and intelligence officers are executives, and all the servers are stored in the US and co-managed by American companies .

      Either no one briefed the politicians on this and they’re about to set up a banning precedence that could ruin intelligence ops in many countries, or it’s just jingoism and nothing will actually happen to it.

      No, democrats are very proud and want everyone to know that it’s a bipartisan bill

            20235: Elon Musk got inspired by the video game Detroit Becomes Human and gets government subsidies to create humanoid robots with emotions and senses in order to boost demographics. For some reason, the female robots are at an incredibly advanced technological state but the male ones haven’t even gone through the blueprinting process

        I think it's doing nothing while having the appearance of doing something.
