Well that's not entirely true. Instagram (a Meta property) is more the competitor to TikTok. And this isn't crying to the government. This is trying to push the dangers of TikTok on right wing cultural outlets. The thing is, this is true, the incentives of TikTok are not pro-social. Then again, neither are those of Instagram (or Facebook for that matter).
- lupire 5y agoHas FB met any kids? "Mom say TikTok will corrupt my morals" is recruiting campaign, not a destructive attack.
- andrewclunn 5y agoNot in many culturally conservative households. These parents exert a lot more control over what their children are exposed to / allowed to engage with.
- AlexandrB 5y agoThey _try_ to exert a lot more control over what their children are exposed to. I'm not sure they're always successful.
- dylan604 5y agoThis is definitely true in my case. The harder they tried, the more I pushed back. Also, as anecdotal evidence, there's a reason there's a stereotype of PKs (preacher's kids).
- Shared404 5y agoYep. The harder control is attempted to be applied, the more resistance there will be and the further away the kids will run when they finally escape. Those of you who are parents, keep this in mind - kid's are people too. You cannot control them, and if you think you have, they are hiding from you. Help them grow, don't push them away.
