Seems like the US propaganda against TikTok successfully worked. What a sad day. We should never encourage censoring social media and free speech. If a self-proclaimed liberal democracy can only win by censoring it is neither liberal nor a democracy.
- NLPaep 2y agoIt’s not free speech if the content distribution is purposefully weighted towards showing specific agendas
- petre 2y agoSure. A CCP linked Chinese company controls the narratives. So no Xi jokes on TikTok.
- krapp 2y agoPointing in the general direction of "communists" and shrieking like that guy at the end of Invasion of the Body Snatchers[0] has been an effective backdoor into the American zeitgeist for almost a century. It doesn't matter what rights need to be compromised, what morals undermined, what transgressions done, Americans will do anything, permit anything to quell the Red Menace, whatever form it takes. Only their collective fear of the Angry Black Man is more primal. [0]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEStsLJZhzo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEStsLJZhzo
