I don't think this is about China for them. TikTok is mainlining left wing garbage into children and teenagers. They absolutely love any way to get their indoctrination into young people. Even Jamaal Bowman talking about it admitted it by defending TIkTok on the basis that it is "engaging young people in the democratic process." Biden has had TikTok influencers come to the White House. They were brought in to learn the correct narratives on things like COVID, Ukraine, and you can guess what else and then they push it out to their followers.
