Amazing how Dem supporters have convinced themselves that defeating Trump is the single most important and urgent thing in the world while the leaders they support demonstrate over and over that they don't actually give a poo poo about winning and will gladly throw countless votes in the trash to ban the evil China app.

also that the entire democrat platform this year is predicated on "saving democracy" through censorship, ignoring constituent desires, and election interference.

lmfao at will stancil comparing himself to 1939 poland

So, after instituting economic boycotts, limitations on the number of Jewish students at universities, and restrictions on kosher slaughter, having just de-naturalized all Jews living abroad and refusing to admit the German Jews who'd just been expelled, he's now preparing to begin the ghettoization and setting up of forced labor camps for the remaining Jews in the country?

I didn't realize Stancil was so antisemitic!

It is Saving Democracy (TM) by OG US landowners-only get the formal vote standards, so I guess they're originalists like most of the US Supreme Court.

Also (and less sarcastically than my previous post), it's totally unfair that the inscrutable Chinese commies came up with a popular app while American capitalism has been in a holding pattern iterating on the same social media mess for years. American capital can't have someone beating them at their own game, and so they have to stage a hostile takeover and blubber that it's for "national security" reasons.

TikTok’s algorithm is 10x better than Facebook or YouTubes. TikTok actually shows me funny and unique poo poo not just ai generated garbage and Ben Shapiro videos.

they never intended to enforce it. enforcing things isn't the government's job anymore. they just create economic incentives for other people to enforce it.

I think there is a good chance the Democrats try to enforce it if they win the election in November. Libs aren’t happy that the majority of people under 40 don’t get their news from approved sources.

I have no idea what Trump would do. I think his potential second term would just be him getting revenge on people he feels have betrayed him over the last four years and I’m not sure if TikTok will feature into that.

are you not paying attention to the increased censorship in the west and the current mass jailing of student protestors?
