Blocking a Chinese government controlled and subsidized entity from unfettered operation on your soil doesn't even remotely intersect "freedom of speech".
Someone domestic can create a TikTok clone if they feel like their free speech is being impinged. Problem solved.
Disconnecting from China is simply smart domestic security.

Ironically, there are a lot of philosophy accounts on tiktok, if you watch them it would give you an opportunity to realize that what appears to you as a fact is actually a belief, and an incorrect one at that (I suspect you are thinking of the first amendment, a very common error among humans).
- bsder 3y agoThis is both a non-sequitur and grammatically very strange--especially when compared to the quite clear grammar in submissions from more than 5 years ago as opposed to relatively new comments. Has this "mistermann" account been compromised? Is there a way to flag it for review?
- mistermann 3y ago> This is both a non-sequitur... A reply could hardly be more ironic than this, even if you were trying. Dang is well aware of my unusual perspective, and he too is not a fan afaict, but tends to "not be able to understand" simple unusually literal language when I explain.
