- margalabargala 2y agoI don't see the downside to Americans as a result of this. Meanwhile, China lost a valuable propaganda tool. Or, would have. It's all a moot point now that the appeal to Trump's ego worked.
- wonnage 2y agoYou sound like someone who doesn't use TikTok and therefore isn't affected by this anyway. So your opinion doesn't matter
- gordinator_g 2y agoExtrapolating your logic, I am not currently in a war-zone therefore my opinions on war don't matter. I'm not a politician so I shouldn't have political opinions.
- mardifoufs 2y agoThe downside is mostly in terms of PR. But I agree that Americans and American media would still probably call any foreign ban on Facebook or youtube "censorship". Or would say that Chinese style bans on foreign social media is wrong - except when they do it. So I guess I agree, there's no big downside for Americans.
