Quick reminder for anyone thinking banning tiktok is in any way good or harmless: ANY AND ALL CENSORSHIP IS BAD AND WILL BE ABUSED BEYOND ITS LIMITS. If one app is banned, then any app can be banned. If one argument can be made to take away a vehicle for information and change, then ANY argument can be made to take away a vehicle for information and change.
And make no fucking mistake, doing this during an election year is intentional. Not only will it greatly reduce the average person’s ability to see the reality of what’s happening in Palestine, but it will also reduce avenues of varied perspective that young voters need more of so that they know what they stand for and therefore who to vote for.
It will also force hundreds of thousands of Americans out of jobs during an economic crisis worse than the Great Depression.
I’ve already sent an email to my senators, and you can too if you look up “how to contact senators about tiktok ban” and find the ACLU link right at the top after the news results. It’s quick, easy, painless, and customizable. This is an issue we need to show up for, because these idiots are supposed to work for us, and they don’t want to lose their next reelection.
#tiktok#tiktok ban#us politics#I don’t normally like to post about politics but this is important now more than ever#the idea that they would pass a bill to open the floodgates to ban apps they can deem dangerous is absurd#that it passed the house is already evidence of a huge failure on our reps part because that does not represent the American people

Why is it that whenever I wish to scream, I am at work?
#i am so tired of this dumbass country doing dumbass shit#The writing is on the fucking wall people#i see all these people questioning exactly why the US govt wants to get rid of tiktok#omg its so fucking obvious#tiktok is not owned by an american entity#its own by ByteDance a Chinese company#its not about being scared our data is going to the chinese if that was true they would have banned it before everyone got into it#its because they cant control the media we consume#every other social media company that is prevalent in american culture is owned by an american company#with an american running it#and since Tiktok is owned by someone outside the United States they don't have open control on what people consume#like on facebook instagram twitter even bluesky all these entities are owned by americans meaning the government has the possibility#to have some control over what we see on our feeds#tiktok thats not as possible#also the whole divestiger law is so fucked up too#when ever would the US government force a company to sell their company to another#thats not legal#if it goes to the supreme court that should be what they find but knowing our supreme court right now thats unlikely#im so tired of this shit#i just want to be able to watch videos of my favorite celebrities on a fun social media app#is that so much to ask#tiktok ban#us government#us politics

Im so confused as to why so many TikTok haters think they won against the brain rot just because the app is essentially going to be banned assuming they don’t win in their case even though it’s just gonna double the brain rot on YT shorts and Instagram reels and lessen the voice of the actual creators on that app
#tiktok#youtube shorts#Instagram reels#brainrot#seriously what do they think it’s gonna stop#also America just being able to stop us from using apps for no reason other than ‘oh it’s from China and they’re stealing our data’#is pretty scary for what else they might ban#isn’t the whole point of America kinda freedom of choice

if you had a good first date from a dating app, report the person’s profile as soon as you leave so their account gets banned. that way you limit their dating options and you increase your chances of a second date :) follow for more dating hacks!
#jk i just saw this on tiktok#and i laughed#i reported my ex and his profile got banned#but i only did it bc he stole my favorite shirt and fucking USED a pic w him wearing that shirt on a dating app#and ik it was to spite me#so i reported him and asked my friends to report him :)#dont mess with me bitch#suzy.txt#tiktok that posted this @thelkshow

americans: “livable wages and free healthcare, bestie? 🥺👉👈”
government: “banm timktonk”
#priorities#funniest part about the ban going through would be that it wouldn’t stop anyone in america from using tiktok#it only bans the app from app stores lmfao#u don’t need an app store to get apps on ur phone you dumb fucks like brooo boomers are senile they don’t know how tech works at all#apple babble 🍎#non fandom

btw i will forever talk about this and be mad about this: if you are happy about tiktok being banned, you did not think. you did not think of any of the implications of the us government banning an entire app. you did not think of any of the limitations of the us government taking away an entire form of communication. for incredibly arbitrary reasons. accused reasons that so many other apps are guilty of. i’m literally so pissed off
#worf opens their big mouth#i should’ve been pissed off way sooner. not just when i was on the app#tiktok#tiktok ban#us tiktok ban

I might be wrong cos idk the US context so take this w a grain of salt... but despite scores of posts about it I fail to see the plan to ban tiktok as a bad thing 😅 it's already banned for employees/official devices by governments and international organisations across the world for compromising user data and um, literally being spyware. It's not like it's the Last Bastion of Free Speech either like dude just use a different app...
#yeah i get the concerns in the us over it primarily being a r*publican/tr*mp initiative#but it's well documented that the app isn't secure and is being used to actively spy on ppl. like the EU has banned its employees from using#it on work devices...#like tiktok legit admitted to spying activity before :/#yeah yeah all tech companies sell your data but this one is like. more predatory than the rest??#so yeah in general all the waxing poetic abt the death of free speech doesn't convince me in this specific case. just go on other apps lol#they're already cloning the tiktok model w shorts or reels or whatever its literally identical#^^ this post stems about 50 50 from actual intelligent opinion formation AND my knee jerk opinion of tiktok as 'dumb' lmao
