  You are not alone in your sentiments. Anyone that has a pulse on the USG’s security posture knows exactly what’s going on here. At any moment, the CCP can press their finger on the scale of public opinion, manipulating 150 million Americans at once. We already saw how Facebook, Google, and Twitter royally fvcked the last election cycle, incited violence across the country, and divided us during COVID... that was a coordinated effort between domestic tech companies and government agencies (fact, not opinion). Imagine what's possible when a foreign country enters the chat, especially when public trust in institutions is at an all-time low. Roughly 50% of the American population is using TikTok. Folks ought to chew on that thought for a moment.
