streamofthesky 03/13/24 3:25:12 PM #4:	Centrist I mostly don't care? Tiktok is Chinese malware and a cancer on society. But I don't think the government needs to ban it. It also has been a useful window into Gen Z popular culture to see how utterly fucking screwed society is going to be. Like, I know I sound like a boomer there, but holy shit is there such a massive amount of concentrated stupidity and fascism on there. Probably why Hasan does so well on it. So...mildly oppose, more b/c this is a stupid waste of time than any particular thoughts on the issue itself. Humble_Novice posted...

Voidgolem 03/13/24 3:47:38 PM #18:	Leftist, oppose Beyond the obvious bit of overreach, that the bill is misrepresented as "Ban TikTok" shows that it is deceptively written. It does a fair bit worse than that and that's already pretty bad by itself.

ClayGuida 03/23/24 1:05:42 PM #27:	I don't use TikTok, but I don't want the government banning things arbitrarily because of this or that because that means they'll just ban anything they don't deem fit for us, which is Russia/North Korea/China/Saudi Arabia type shit.
