    I have never used TikTok, so maybe they’re right about this, but there’s a good chance that selective memory bias is at play here, which is when you only focus on the examples that prove your preexisting beliefs and forget about all the examples that didn’t.

      True, there’s a good chance this wasn’t a scientific endeavor.

        True, there’s a good chance people will treat it as such anyway.

      Ha, the explanation is probably even more simple. The ones that were wild were liked and shared, the ones that were normal didn’t get any engagement.

      You can’t get good metrics from social media without being able to access the entire data set.
