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.

      I'm X-ennial. Tiktok is just a good algo and a snappy interface. Its the closest anything has gotten to channel-flipping since before cable went digital. Just flip until something cool is on, and flip away if it gets boring

        Yeah I bet it's entertaining. I've kind of drifted from social media other than places like here. I just don't understand the motivation with this other than China bad.

          TikTok algo isn't overrun with chuds so users are exposed to anti-Israel, anti-America, anti-White, pro-trans "propaganda"

        That's actually a good way to describe short form content. You flip though the videos until you get something cool, watch a bunch of them from said cool person, and then leave or watch something else.
