So what? It's chinese consumers that lose by keeping American companies out. I don't understand the reasoning on wanting to punish American consumers until Chinese consumers get a better deal

You’re missing half the equation. It’s Americans that lose out by not being able to sell into the Chinese market. Banning TikTok doesn’t hurt American consumers in any real sense. They can amuse themselves with short form video from any number of providers. Social media is a zero sum battle for your non-sleeping hours at this point.

No it isn’t it’s American citizens who are feeding the Chinese intelligence apparatus directly about their entire lives. This is not a personal preference but a giant information gathering net. Hence why China bans ours because they know this is a ridiculous thing to allow
