I honestly don’t have strong feelings about the Tik Tok ban/forced sale but one other argument is that the CCP could “pull the strings” and show content to users
I think to myself : “yeah but people will see the propaganda fr what it is immediately.” Then I realize people got mad at RT being removed from providers, Newsmax and FN, as legitimate news sources, etc… funny how they single TT which hasn’t done any of that yet but ignore the others. The fact they consider it’s sale to the US is the ultimate hypocrisy - free market my ass.

Tiktok has done a lot of propaganda already. They just aren’t as clumsy as RT with it.
