Its worth adding, TikTok in China (it’s called something else, I’m blanking) is entirely controlled on the state and there is absolutely no way that it would be permitted to host any political discussion or advocate mass action not approved by the state. Their “Hey call your congressman” stunt was the most idiotic PR move ever, because they demonstrated that this company is willing and able to leverage the userbase in the US in ways that would never be permitted in “West Taiwan”.
No. But that’s not the point. America’s government allows foreign aid interests to buy land and other property in America. Should they ban all of it, even if it crashes the economy?
Damn straight they should. No foreign entity should own any American land. Same goes for Canada too, with the obvious problem being their housing crisis caused by foreign real estate investment.
Americans are so racist that they can’t accept the fact that non-American companies can be successful.

China beat America at capitalism and now America big sad. 😢
China doesn’t claim to be liberal, so no
So we’re no different? Is that your argument? If so we’re saying the same thing. This paves the way for more bans in the future.
According to that logic we should ban Instagram and Facebook
So the goal is to make laws like China does?

Congratulations, we have just destroyed global capitalism. Let’s go.
