You need to educate yourself about China and the CCP.
You’re overreacting by quite a lot, people are fine with banning TikTok for the same reason they’re fine with banning spyware apps from Russia or any other bad actor state.
We aren’t obligated to give anti-democratic foreign adversaries equal access to pollute our public squares. Especially when they themselves have already banned most forms of outside social media and are only interest in peddling their propaganda.
It’s ridiculous that people are pretending like the CCP is some kind of victim here or that this is some slippery slope.
