That's because China has strict censorship laws while the US protects free speech. TikTok (like Meta) follows local regulations when it comes to their content.

- miguelazo 4y agolol… free speech for those who don’t rock the boat. Go ask someone in the US who criticizes Israel in any serious way how their employment prospects are going.
- anothernewdude 4y agoGo ask the buried corpses of those in China who criticize the CCP anything.
- miguelazo 4y agoUtterly ridiculous, jingoistic nonsense. This isn't the Cultural Revolution.

- miguelazo 4y agoI suppose you have some evidence of this???
- suggestion 4y agoNo it's because TikTok is owned by the CCP and used as a tool to sow discord and subvert liberal democratic values so that it may destabilize the west and pave the way for CCP supremacy.
- angio 4y agoThat's a conspiracy theory with, so far, no confirmation.
- suggestion 4y agoWhich part is a conspiracy theory?
- angio 4y agoThat the content is promoted to create disorder. Facebook has similar issues (they're even being sued for contributing to genocide) but they were never accused of the same thing (but mostly of negligence).
- pessimizer 4y agoThis thing started with Facebook being accused of being the conduit for the stealing of the 2016 election through 100K worth of ads featuring Bernie shirtless. It's hard to remember because they got utterly bored with it eventually, and they have relatives that they brag work at Facebook.
- stjohnswarts 4y agoFacebook wasn't created to create social disorder as a first principle, it was created to be addictive and make MarkZ and crew billionaires. TikTok is being used to do something similar but it is completely designed to do that by a foreign power and use algorithms specifically to damage the psyche of westerners with distracting videos, tuning them to give just enough of a dopamine buzz to keep you there and coming back, and in general distract youth from pursuing more enlightening and educational activities while building a psychological profile on them to be filed away for future clandestine purposes. Or that's just my 5 minute take on it.
