The thing that really pisses me off is that there is no geographical boundaries to this shit...
It's the internet. We live in countries that will never ban Tiktok (just look at what happened when Trump tried), and so I can be living on completely the other side of the world, and yet know people (girls, generally) influenced by this "Mental Illness Factory" just as any of you in the UK, North America or Continental Europe may do...
China knows this, of course. No wonder they pump funding into this fucking brainwashing tool...
That’s why all the talk of China as our greatest enemy is so stupid. All China has to do is hold up a mirror. We’re the ones actively destroying our country.
Unfortunately the internet is just a large vector for transmission. This chick probably took the wrong classes and made the wrong friends early in college that lead her down this path. Tiktok is used by her to pat herself on the back and give herself confirmation bias that this wasn’t a colossal mistake. Healthy kids not exposed to this nonsense previously do not see this on tiktok and think cool I’m going to do that. It’s the damaged ones or the ones who for some reason believe their crazy leftist professor.

To be fair, China owns the megaphone that is amplifying those doing it.
