    TikTok is the one they can’t control, and for some crazy ass reason it’s the only one that actually removes racist and bigoted content. Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, none of them removes explicit hate speech anymore

    All the American equivalents are basically 4chan these days, and they’re pissed people have an alternative.

    Like, people say they’re worried about China/Russia stoking infighting…

    But they ignore American billionaires have been doing it for decades. They want a race war, culture war, any and every kind of war to distract the poors from realizing there’s an ongoing class war and we’re getting our asses kicked.

    They’re not worried about Americans being manipulated.

    They’re worried about China/Russia allowing the working class to unite against the wealthy. They’re doing it for the wrong reasons, but at this point all they have to do is be non biased and allow it to grow. They don’t have to encourage it.

    That’s why the wealthy and powerful are so scared of a shitty video app.

    It ain’t to protect us.

        The working class of… China and Russia?

        Oh hell no…

        You’re certainly not suggesting that China and Russia give any kind of shit about the working class with their oligarchs and billionaires?

        They don’t.

        They won’t the working class of other countries to revolt against their own oligarchs, leaving Russian and Chinese oligarchs higher on the list of worlds wealthiest people.

        They’re doing the right thing, for the wrong reasons.

        Which is only a good thing compared to American oligarchs doing the wrong thing.

        Something being the lesser of two evils doesn’t make it good, but just like I voted for Hillary, Joe, and Kamala…

        I guess I’m now a TickTok supporter too.
