Facebook is an enemy of the people, therefore we should not ban TikTok? Is there any meaningful sense in which Facebook is an enemy of the people, but TikTok isn't? Didn't think so. Facebook may in fact be an enemy of the people, in the sense that it does damage to those who become addicted to social media. But TikTok is no better, and maybe worse.
And, "the enemy of the people"? That was what a communist dictatorship said when they wanted to charge somebody, but didn't have any actual laws to do it with. I find that phrase disturbing in the mouth of the man who aspires to head a democracy that is governed by the rule of law.

FB hurt him so now he slanders them. That's it
