    American social media is also not okay.

    But this isn’t an either/or situation. We can shit on both.

    And Tiktok, just like Facebook (and the CCP and the US government) deserves all the hate it gets.

      But you’re not. That’s about as clear as water. None of this legislation has any effect whatsoever on American companies…

      Why?

      Because this is a nationalism thing. Not a security thing. Not a health and well-being thing. This is a nationalism thing.

      It’s also an Israel thing; lots of pro-palestine content on TikTok, and Israel wants that shit shut down.

            Multiple counties have been banning Chinese apps long before the current Gaza situation. Take off your horse blinders.

            Edit. Nevermind, your just a troll. The other day your “opinion” of Israel was pretty damned glowing:.

            I mean, they’re ridding the world of a civilization which is intolerant to LGBT individuals, women, etc. So what’s the problem? Not all human life is worth something. Not all cultures are worth preserving.

            Now you’re trying to call other people Zionist? Lol please

              hahaha, what a redditor. You gotta dive through people’s history looking for something ‘incriminating’ so you can attack the person instead of the argument at hand.

              If they’re banning an app because a nation wants to control the narrative, but you won’t talk about that, because reeee China bad…but you can’t articulate why “china bad”.

              Do you realize you’re missing important context to that conversation, and all of my viewpoints align with each other perfectly? You know why? Because I’m not a hypocrite.

              I’ll give you another one of my quotes here, just so you understand my point of view on humanity:

              Once you start viewing humanity the same way you’d view organisms in a Petri Dish, you’ll have gotten it.

              You’re here for a purpose. I’m here to argue and observe the dataset.

                  Call me a troll all you want, you’ve never had a valid argument to begin with. With bangers like:

                  Oh no, won’t anyone think about the poor Chinese government companies?

                  You really are Soooooo intellectually stimulating.

                    Dude, put the phone down and talk to someone face to face for a change. I couldn’t care less about your opinion on anything since all you want to do is flip flop on topics. Good luck out there.
