perfectly normal country where shit like this just gets tacked on to giant fopo bills
Weapons for Ukraine, weapons for Israel, ban tiktok, but literally let everyone domestically die of poverty, don't talk about abortion, and yell about people killing trans people and black people while increasing transfer of military weapons to police and increasing drilling for oil.
And my lib friends still think there's a reason to hope that the Ds will make things better
No longer will our children suffer from the evil chinese brainwashing machine!
It’s the only social media I use because the algorithm is so precise, it’s intensely trained on cat videos and possum videos. It doesn’t serve me anything else at this point, it’s a thing of beauty
Fuck you Joe, I want cat and possum videos
The algo is kinda insane cos it calibrates so fast and knows what i want at that point in time like it can read my fucking mind. Youtube either shows me videos that are already in my sub feed, videos I've already watched or fascist content
What it doesn't serve is right-wing garbage when you feed it literally anything, unlike YouTube and Twitter
TikTok, this site, tumblr and a few
subreddits are my only social media for this very reason.I can’t go two seconds anywhere else without getting a video saying that people like deserve to die just because it would be funny if we died. At least on these sites that number is slightly less.
Nazis have the entire world as one big circlejerk for their ideas. All I want is one small circlejerk for my unpopular but correct ideas.
So does every other social media site, whats your point?
In North Korea the media must serve the interests of the ruling class.
If it doesn't it gets shut down under false pretenses.i have never used tiktok but this is really shocking. i want to leave this country asap
they don't have a problem with tik tok. the concern is the chinese ownership of tik tok. all that bad privacy stuff is no issue as long as the owners are "friends".
Biden regime has ruled that media platform requires itself to be attached to a state apparatus for citizens to be allowed to use it.
It's still pending legal challenge ofc, but from everything I've read they're only going to ban it from appearing on app stores, which should mean that anyone not on an Apple device can still install the app, and anyone with any device should still be able to access the website.
So I'm expecting TikTok to continue to be very popular with Americans even after they're no longer "officially" supported.
Will this finally make owning an iPhone uncool with the American gen Z and Alpha?
I think this will be overturned in the courts, but who knows what SCOTUS will decide.
the funniest outcome will be SCOTUS overruling it, then upholding it when Trump bans it by executive order again
