I don’t need TikTok for foreign ideas. I see them everywhere.
For example while I don’t buy them I have absolutely heard the Russian arguments for Ukraine. You can find complete texts of every Putin speech online, not to mention thinkers like Alexandr Dugin.
The Internet is absolutely boiling over with both pro and anti Israel arguments and propaganda too. You almost can’t even avoid it.
If the powers that be don’t want me seeing arguments against US policy they are doing an awful job.
The TikTok thing is about two things: trade unfairness and how it leverages addiction to push propaganda.
Both points are valid, but the latter applies just as well to all modern social media.

I'm pretty sure we could easily get a strong consensus that there is zero issue in an official CCP account posting official CCP positions on Twitter or Facebook.
