it doesn't need banning, nothing wrong with it. its a popular network with zoomers and bitter old gen x and millennials hate that

Try touching grass without putting music and a filter over it

bunch of fucking boomer takes in here

not to mention the asocial traits plenty of people that are critical of it possess

I'm convinced most of it just amounts to "new thing bad", and also generalizing the toxic or stupid shit that goes viral on it, which makes up a very small percentage.

Even if it wasn't from China, we would still be hearing the same social media complaints ITT about it.

i dont give a rats ass about what zoomers and boomers want. ban tik tok and facebook both. both are a net negative. tik tok is just a bit worse cause the data is owned by the CCP

Except unironically, the children are wrong lol

you are definitely out of touch

nah, tiktok not being tied down to major western corporate interests is actually a huge reason why its been a fantastic tool for getting information and truth out into the world that would otherwise be covered up

it being owned by the CCP means inherently means some things are already covered up

sure, but not western corporate interests. CCP isn't going to be wasting their time covering up shootings and police violence in the west

they will cover up shootings and police violence in china though and any pro-Taiwanese sentiments. Anyway, western corporations and the CCP are bad but the CCP is worse

isn't China using it to spy on US citizens?

okay doesn't mean it needs to be banned because of that (also lol no CCP is not)

its beneficial to ban it because of that. And yes the CCP absolutely is, no question. There's very few companies that approach the CCP in how evil they are

Yeah ok bud

its just federal (for now)
the UK are doing it for gov employees now too

its a tool of the CCP and ought to be banned outright

an america based alternative ought to be forthcoming - something like vine

yeah, the CCP is going to do some real damage with all those Tik Tokkers info lol...seriosly tho, what do you think they'd do other then try and sell them shit or sell their info to other people like American companies already do? What is this massive threat that crazy ass Republicans (and you) seem to believe will happen?

Create a better western alternative. Problem solved

The internation version of the Chinese app Douyin "Tik Tok", is also banned in China.

No reason for US not to ban it.

one will try to sell you things and the other will try to send people to prison and control the public.

one will try to sell you things and the other will try to send people to prison and control the public. get the fuck out with your strawman "only republicans are concerned about the data security threat the CCP poses". you're far more right-leaning than i'll ever be and thats a promise
