The only danger coming from TikTok is governments can no longer control the narrative, we are seeing through many government lies and hurting corporate profits. It’s helping break down the divisions that keep us separated and them in power.
Congress is after TikTok because it’s impacting corporate profits like the boycotts of Starbucks and McD has done. A place where we can collectively communicate with each other outside of the approved echo chambers. They can’t control how we act and think without being able to control the algorithm
Those are the issues they dont want us collectively talking about, sharing our lived experiences and how they dont line up with the bullshit our government is gaslighting us with

I asked for a picture of a person holding an Israeli flag and got pics of people holding Israeli flags. I asked for pics of people holding Palestinian flags, was told they can’t generate pics of real life flags, it’s against company policy
It’s happening because Biden has accepted over $5,223,313 in AIPAC money. And it’s 100% in his power to stop all money and weapons to Israel, but that $5M in AIPAC money bought cheap access to the WH.
