Please stop with this false equivalence nonsense. In 2020, the USA (for all its many faults) is not running concentration camps to imprison and "re-educate" millions of citizens for having the wrong religion or ethnicity. It's not trying to carry out a slow-motion genocide.
I don't love the NSA, or Trump, or the US military-industrial complex, but parroting this "both sides" garbage just makes you sound like a useful idiot for the CCP.

- arcticbull 6y agoI didn't say they were equivalent, I'm limiting the scope of my commentary to TikTok alone, and not the broader environment. It is my opinion that TikTok in isolation does not pose a national security threat or a threat to democracy, and therefore, this is likely to be grandstanding.
