I Definitely Support Banning TikTok in the U.S.

[Tyde]

Ok as you guys know, I have been busy making a lot of videos, and that means filming lots of clips and storing them in my photos/videos folder on my iPhone

Well I had never touched the TikTok app ever until last week. Partially because I thought it was just a bunch of teenagers creating useless garbage content, but also because I heard the noise from all sides about it being Chinese spyware. I watched the congressional hearings and heard the CEO’s testimony.

I think the word ‘unnerving’ describes how I felt about it, despite knowing full well that it’s insanely popular.

I also considered the view that TikTok is doing the same shit in terms of data harvesting as any other social media platform, and that legislators and the federal government (and U.S. based big tech) has a hard-on for them because they dominate online advertising revenue market share.

I think there is probably some truth in all of the above..

OK so I downloaded the app a few days ago for the first time…



what a fucking nightmare

I must have at least 500 various video clips in my iPhones photo album (I’m talking about files I haven’t even uploaded yet) and all of the sudden a bunch of them were showing a TikTok watermark LOL

Plus the whole app was constantly pounding me with notifications, likes and PMs from bots, and the mute button kept resetting to full volume. Every time I opened it, bam…slammed with some retarded shit with a hip hop background audio track

this is the sound of me snap deleting that garbage app/spyware after less than 12 hours >>

<CLICK>

I just hope that the Chinese didn’t leave behind some backdoor to my camera app, and some random in a cubicle in Beijing isn’t watching me jerk off to midget porn

in closing…

ban TikTok from all U.S. based internet service providers immed

Sure you got your data harvesting but it’s more the algorithm that curates divisive content and simp culture to stupid Americans. The kind of stuff the Chinese would never expose their zoomers to.

It’s a brilliant way to weaken an opponent

A lost freaking generation those Covid kids and their phones. Social media is toxic and by and large stupid. You see the result.

Ban dancing while you are at it. When did republicans become such snowflakes?

Seriously all you guys do is complain and try to get things cancelled. I hate to red rep but had no choice.

China has been doing what you propose for years.... This is communist shit.

Brother I recently hired somebody who buys tik tok ads for me. So far it has been profitable. I didn’t think our original tests would make money but they did. We are advertising “Auto Warranty”

I’ve never been on the app personally. I don’t handle that pal

Hmmm I wonder why one of our resident Republican's came to hate TikTok.


Here's a pro tip, the only person telling the truth is the Tik Tok CEO. He was under oath and not protected by the estab.
I guarantee ever word he said was carefully fact checked under penalty of perjury..



At this point most people would be angry at FB and the GOP for treating them like a bitch and selling them out.

Quote
"Meta, the company formerly known as Facebook, has recruited a conservative consulting firm to sway public opinion against TikTok by planting negative stories in news outlets and urging politicians to crack down on TikTok, the Washington Post reported.

Emails obtained by the Post show Targeted Victory is helping Meta stimulate fear and anger around TikTok, which has emerged as one of its most prominent competitors. An email from February described the firm’s goal to: “get the message out that while Meta is the current punching bag, TikTok is the real threat especially as a foreign owned app that is #1 in sharing data that young teens are using.”

Facebook and other social media platforms have become a bi-partisan target since whistleblower Frances Haugen released internal documents that highlighted the political and social harms of Facebook and Instagram. Meta has emerged at the center of politicians’ efforts to regulate big tech.

TikTok was the most-downloaded app globally in 2021 and reached 1 billion monthly active users in September. The video-sharing platform is winning the attention of young users, luring them from Meta’s Facebook and Instagram. The Post article also cited findings from Facebook researchers that teenagers were spending “2-3x more time” on TikTok than Instagram, which were included in documents released by Haugen.

Targeted Victory’s efforts include pushing news stories that link dangerous viral trends to TikTok which actually started on Facebook while simultaneously circulating puff-pieces about Meta, the Post reported. Targeted Victory co-founder Zac Moffatt was the digital director of Republican candidate Mitt Romney’s 2012 presidential campaign. It’s website promises “a right-of-center perspective.”

IDK how anyone can't see the danger in allowing corporations to buy our supposed elected reps and media.
As if we're not on the cusp of ww3 because of this corruption.

That's why RFK Jr is the only reasonable choice period.

We have been in ww3 since Covid and the great reset. This war is different in that giving in to the globalists (demons) will not only cost you your life…it will cost your soul.

Jesus is coming back to erase transhumanism.

Be ready.

Lol. Jesus loves those transpeople, rapists, and even child molesters as much as he does you. The only people who he ever got angry with were the money changers desecrating the Temple, and the self-righteous rabbis telling everyone what to do (sound like anyone?) Enlighten yourself by reading Matthew 23 sometime.

I have a suspicion that a torrent of deep fakes and AI will fuck up the enjoyment of social media as we know it. If a high percentage of posts have to be questioned then how enjoyable will that experience be?

If you really believe in the anti-Christ, here’s the most likely suspect, AI:

This is what's planned for future generations.


And you're worrying about Rupaul smh.

Edit: Fyi it's the globalist demons who are trying to ban Tik Tok. It's the one outlet they don't control.
