#the united states is descending into a fucking oligarchy and tik tok is going to be used as the catalyst i’m telling you

[lloquent]

American politics below, please consider reading no matter your country of origin but of course feel free to ignore if needed! <3

TO EVERYONE WHO IS BACK ON TIKTOK RIGHT NOW — when you start seeing all that horrible shit of people being *mass reported by ICE because of the trump administration who put a 90 day extension on tiktok, we’re already being used to funnel more money into their pockets for watching the horrors.

(*edit 01/22/25: ah, turns out, he doesn’t want us to see that to the point of actually censoring it entirely. not sure why i thought he may stand behind the imagery of what he’s actually doing but i stand corrected. contrarily, now we will see what it’s like when everyone gets censored for using their actual freedom of speech not otherwise including ‘offensive’ language, specifically and only freedom of speech that does not follow the beliefs of the trump administration. does this behavior sound familiar to anyone else or…)

PLEASE do not fall for it, stay off tiktok, use rednote and delete all meta apps. we cannot be swayed into failing our democracy with fast entertainment. for the love of everyone in this country and the world as a whole, please do not continue using tiktok — at least not in good conscience. every single one of us matter and therefore need to stand up. there are FAR more of us than there are billionaires.

stay safe and healthy, and look out for one another! <3
