    Lol, reaching? In what way do you draw the conclusion that I am against TikTok for anything to do with capitalism? TikTok is a tool for the Chinese government to take user data while simultaneously providing nothing but brain rot to the consumers (of course, this isn’t the case with the Chinese version, it actually shows educational content). Eat shit, Pooh Bear.

      If banning the harvest of user data was the real reason for going after tiktok, they would’ve banned harvesting user data. Meta infamously sells their’s to the highest bidder. Are you certain they don’t sell to China? They’ve been caught lying about what they do with it before

        Wild how two of you read what I wrote and inserted commentary about Meta that I never mentioned. Ban all of Meta too, please, I really mean it.

          That’s my point! We can’t just have the government wack-a-moling businesses like that, that’s not impartial governing.

      Are American social media platforms not sharing data with the American government?

      They’re all the same, banning one is missing the point.

      “Chinese government to take user data while simultaneously providing nothing but brain rot to the consumers (of course, this isn’t the case with the Chinese version, it actually shows educational content)”

      Isnt all the content on tiktok user-generated?

        Isn’t all the content on YouTube, Facebook, Reddit Lemmy, etc user created? It’s about the moderation. What gets deleted, what gets promoted, those are the things that are different.

      nm = never mind

      The intention was that I didn’t need your participation to make my point. But here we are. Thanks for the reinforcement!

        if you didn’t want to interact you could have just not posted anything. You want to do your point but you know it doesn’t hold any ground and cannot stand the slightest opposition so you bail.
