Actually, the White House came out bashing the protests and calling them antisemitism as well

It was never about American’s privacy, it was because the government apparently can’t control the narrative in the app while they can with the other one’s which is why they are trying to force tiktok to sell to an American company or gtfo. I have seen news faster and with more accuracy in the past 6 months on tiktok than even here, and when I try to see it on the media it’s either only one sided or completely absent (the farmers protests in Brussels and France is a great example, the zionist message in america and the college protests is another)

This won’t stop china from spying on us, they are already buying all they want from Meta, Twitter, Google, and Microsoft, they don’t need Tiktok to do this. Also, the chineese company that “owns” tiktok only owns about 40% of the company.

You are not going to convince anyone here, I’m with you on that but over here all people care about it “not fediverse = bad” so you and I will get downvoted when speaking any rationale that doesn’t put tiktok as the devil’s spawn

Sorry what? Where the fuck where people doing Internet challenges before tiktok? Oh yeah, FACEBOOK, TWITTER, YOUTUBE.

People have been doing all kinds of stupid shit online seeking internet clout way before tiktok was even musicly (or whatever it was called)

Twitter is owned by Musk, he’s from South Africa, so we can force him to sell no?

Right, again, this feels more like control by the us gov, and less about protecting its people

HurlingDurling, 28 days ago

Of course the would

Why? If he’s a convicted criminal, strip his salary and all his benefits, including the secret service.

So, this is an unpopular opinion, but I kinda agree with this (how tf am I agreeing with that orange turd?).

I’m in my 40s and even at this stage I won’t get next to nothing back for all the years I’ve been putting into social security because both democrats and republicans (mostly republicans) have been steadily taking money out of it in order to fund a multitude of government programs for decades.

Sure, this is not ideal, and the right course of action would be to lower out defense spending budget, and remove a whole lot of subsidies we give to industry that does not help us, but that would just stop the hemorrhaging of money in SS, but we would also need to calculate how much money was lost and replace 100% in one go in order to trully fix this issue.

Sorry bout the ramble, just woke up and on my phone.

I don’t think like that at all. We need to fund ALL of these programs 100%, it just feels like we keep funding them by taking cuts of social security istead of other things that dont need to be funded (ie. Corn, Oil, etc.)

HurlingDurling, 1 month ago

1000% behind this. THIS is what I’m saying

No, my take is “it’s in a coma and dying, so if we arent going to do the right thing to fix it, just go ahead and finish the job, pull the plug and burry it instead of just posing for your campaign pictures while you remove more organs from it”

No one should have Veto power in the UN

Because the US can control the topics shared in the other platforms, but since tiktok is owned by a chinese parent company, they can’t

Also, tiktok was originally told they had to sell to a us based owner to avoid the ban (see hostile takeover)

This ban has nothing to do with privacy and Chinese manipulation, and everything about control and profits.

Hell, Besos and The Zuckster are the two main forces pushing for this ban.
