    Oh god. Don’t tell me this is a pro-hamas post. All it is missing is idiots calling everything hasbara or some other buzz word.

    China doesn’t allow any other apps in their country so why should America allow Chinese apps? America shouldn’t keep Chinese malware out of our networks because… ya’ll are addicted to TikTok?

    This isn’t about Palestine. Not everything is hasbara and because of Israel. TikTok isn’t the voice of freedom or reason. Ya’ll just brainwashed by Chinese algorithms designed to upset the user base. The algorithm is doing what it is supposed to do: create division.

    Edit: spelling

      I agree with you. The CCP classifies recommendation algorithms in a category similar to defense secrets. It isn’t just Tiktok that can’t be sold to non-Chinese, it is all recommendation algorithms. They know damn well what effect these algorithms have on a population.
