I’m not kidding. This will make Gen-Zers vote for Trump. All he has to say is he’ll reverse the ban. He’s already announced that he opposes this bill and that this only supports Facebook.

Biden and the Democrats are so fucking insane. I do not understand it. They want to lose all support with every fucking base they have.

I’ll never stop being on TikTok.

    LOL. “russia was correct in banning facebook and twitter”. Feel better now?

    They could justify that policy the same way - we are a foreign adversary of them and having our companies control their social media could lead to the same sort of problem for them, even if our government doesn’t have it’s fingers dug into our companies in quite the same way as the CCP does with Chinese companies.

    If they’re going to do this TikTok ban bill, they should cast the net a bit wider - it’s be nice if it hits Tencent by accident.

      you’re consistent, a rare sight.

      And us government absolutely does have its fingers up to facebook and twitter asshole.

      It’s fascinating to see how freedom of commerce (when you can’t compete) goes out of a window and libs all just fall in line. Tiktok USA already was populated by usa natsec and it people, so it’s just forcing to sell profitable business cause you need them monies and future control

      Do you work for the NSA or something? The US government doesn’t even hide the fact that that’s the case.

        Read the rest of that sentence. The difference between how the US and CCP have their hands in private companies is like the difference between fingering and fisting.
